There are many people spending millions of dollars on Amazon each year-and get a cut
of the revenue by incorporating Amazon’s affiliate program as part of your website
content.
Suppose you’re running a book blog and you’re delighted with your new kindle So
you write a post describing the feature and how you find it even useful than your old
kindle. In the course of your post you add a text link to the product page on
Amazon.com. You might mention that other users love it too, judging from the
overwhelmingly positive user review. and maybe mention something about the range of
Kindle Fire accessories that are available.
You can see from the paragraph above how easy it is to work links to the product page
naturally into your writing. Those are affiliate links and when a user clicks on of those
links and buys from Amazon the wonderful team and you will get a small commission
for referring a customer.
I think I can guess your next question.
How Much Can You Earn as an Affiliate ?
One of the myths that float around about the associate programs is that it only pays 4%
commission. That not quite right.
The commission structure for the general products start a 4% but the rate rises the more you
items to sell per mouth. After you’ve sold 7 items for example, your commission rate rises to 6% .
Take a look at the table below and you’ll see the advertising fee – which is what Amazon calls
commission – keeps rising up to a maximum of 8.5%.
