Electronic Sales

    I have been looking at Affiliate programs for many electronic stores online and I have seen that hardly any them have a commission rate of more than 1% on most items. Is it possible to really make some good money advertising them on adwords?

    When you promote affiliates on AdWords you have the disadvantage that you're "blind" as you can not put you can place the tracking conversion code (and you are competing with who can put it).

    So I would say that is possible to profit but is very hard to profit with a 1% commission in AdWords - but only a expert would profit with this low commission - I would look for another alternatives.

    I tried electronics for a while. Bad ROI for me, specially like you said with that 1-3% commission.

    I'm not an affiliate of any electronics merchants, but 1% seems pathetically low to me - especially when compared to other affiliate programs, and when considering the vast markup typical of electronics. I'd look to a different market or industry. :)
