1. How to Make Money with the
Amazon Affiliate Program
2. • People are making money with the
Amazon affiliate program every day and
with a little bit of work, in the right
direction, you can too! Setting up an
affiliate account is a quick process and is
the first thing that you should do to start
making money. With the Amazon affiliate
program you make money by referring
people to the sales page of various
products in your niche and if they
purchase you make a few percentage
points for the referral.
3. • Targeting products that sell well and provide
value for your customers is something that you
should keep in mind at all times when you are
setting up and implement the Amazon affiliate
program on your website or blog. The
commission rates vary across all categories
except for “electronics”, which is a flat 4%.
Remember that you have a 24 hour cookie to
work with, so if your customer buys something
within the 24 hours that they clicked through
your link you will be credited with the
commission
4. • Doing research on your target customers’ needs will help you to determine which
products that you should list and promote for the most success with the Amazon
affiliate program. There are a few tips that will follow, but it important to find the best
products that will convert regardless of their prices, as you get the commission on
EVERYTHING that they buy when they click through your link. This means that even if
you are advertising a $5 product, if they end up buying $1000 worth of stuff you get the
commission on the whole basket! Making sure that you find products that you can
write search engine optimized (SEO) content about will help to gain traffic and convert
all in one sweep. Doing a good job convincing people that these products would add
value to their lifestyle is a great way to maximize your use of the Amazon affiliate
program. Use keyword research to help guide the products that you list and then
create content to gain the natural traffic and boost sales.
5. • Try to think about the needs of your
customers and what they will likely
purchase right away versus thinking about
for days or weeks. Certain items such as
printer ink, batteries, or other renewable
necessities, will be purchased right away
and ensure that your customer buys within
the 24 hour window of your Amazon
affiliate program link.
6. • Always look to add value through the promotion of items with the Amazon
affiliate program, but once you have it setup just worry about driving traffic.
Making sure that you keep in mind the 24 hour window and encourage the
immediate purchase of the products will make the most out of every click
through your Amazon affiliate program links.
