I made $900 affiliate commission only from CJ. Is that small?

    I have just switched back to CJ after a while and I am a bit happy with my current commission. I made $863.37 USD for May and June and still growing up.

    I heard that many bloggers can make from 10-20k commission from CJ. How can I do that? Is my CJ earning too decent?

    Here is screenshot of both both pending and locked:

    CJ has just now become one of the bigger part of my monthly earning on eblogtip dot com and you can see my May revenue.

    I am now thinking that whether I quit adsense and move to affiliate marketing or not. Please advice

    Thanks

    Good work. Making 10-20k a month will take some time and work to get it that far. The only blogger I knew to make that much had his blog for 8 years and posted daily. He also paid for all the services used and reviewed issues with them etc.

    If you find affiliate marking paying much more then adsense then I would drop adsense. Not only does it make your site look better, less people will want to leave it.

    Where are you advertising? You can pm me that info if you want, I heard you will be gone all month and may not be able to advertise and I could help you continue advertising on different sites if you would like until you come back.
    By the way your magicaffiliate banner is a bit low quality on my screen. Is there a way that you can fix that? It can entice more users to click on it.

    It's a good inspiration way (for someone new at IM like me), seeing your earnings from CJ. I hope that I can, in a near future, achieve those goals, also. Good Job.

    You are on the right track. You know how to make 900$, then you can make 1800 (900X2), 9000 (900X10) and so on.

    Thanks, actually the magic affiliate is my modification, the original looks cool. But I edited to add my own coupon so people know how my they will get from that link.

    CJ is new source of revenue for me and I am happy to learn to make more from it. I can not share where I am advertising on now, maybe later for sensitive reasons,

    I agree with Techjr..... optimized sites with adsense can bring in some good money. But many people shy away from ads like that.. But with Commission Junction and other affiliate programs, you can have several ads(affiliate links) on your site, and people click on them unexpectidly and naturally...

    Newbie here. Could you explain that in a little more detail and give me an example of how you would put the affiliate links so that people click on them "unexpectedly and naturally"?

    Thanks!

    Well done myclip,

    Your commissions from CJ are very respectable.

    Are all your commissions from producing coupon sites? If that's the case, you could choose a particular niche or product that seems to convert well or has a lot of traffic, then create a blog around that niche and make it into a mini authority site.

    Also, why not build a list? You could tell people to join your list to get the latest hot deals in a certain niche, then send them the latest discount coupons to them. That way, your business grows aswell as just having the organic traffic converting.
    ;)

    List building is also a great way that I need to focus on sooner. Thanks for that. I usually choose the right niche and right products to promote, e.g. you can not promoting clothes on blogging niche blog right? Traffic is also an advantage but it is not a must to me. The important thing is that you choose right niche products and try to find out the biggest coupons/deals for those products, placing eye-catching banner at the most visible positions that all readers can see or write reviews about them, it will surely convert very well
