Who are some of the example web applications that have made a lot of financial success through affiliate programs? Say that there is a domain D on which there is a website X. Now X sells/links books thru Amazon and has made a lot of transactions and therefore a lot of money. Any such example? Yes, I am an absolute layman but does not wish to remain so forever!
Well, I think you should check guru's websites for ex. Anyway, affiliates usually don't have only one site to talk about, but indeed I can not put my finger on one at this moment.
