Amazon the online shopping giant of the internet has an affiliate program that you can join. Anyone who lives in the United States can join this program. However, this is opened worldwide and will depend on where Amazon has their websites. If you live in Australia, UK, China, Hong Kong, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Spain, and the United States it is easy to join the Amazon affiliate program. You just need to visit the website for your area to create an account to join. Many people who are first-time affiliates will choose Amazon because of the trust it has for people who shop online. As an affiliate marketer, it is important to find a site that people have the confidence to shop at. This makes it easier for you to start promoting the products they have to offer.

How Can You Join:

• Like I said earlier, this will depend on where you live. You'll need to visit the website for your country and fill out the application.
• Submit your application to the site.
• Normally, you'll have an answer back within 24 hours.
• They will require you to list your business name. This can be your website.
• You'll also be required to give them your tax information. They need this information in order to pay you your commissions.

How To Promote:

• When promoting Amazon products on your website, blog or even your social media account, you don't want to over promote.
• One of the best ways to do this is through reviews. Write up a review about the product and add your affiliate links in the review.
• You can do the same for your social media account. Just don't try to push the product and spam people to buy this.
• You can't offer any type of promotions to entice a person to purchase the products you are promoting from Amazon.

What To Promote:

• The best way to decide on what to promote is to visit the site. You should find products in your niche. This makes it easier to promote an item on your website.
• You can use the widgets from Amazon on your website to promote your items.
• You can promote these items in your articles using a text link to the product.
• Reviews are one of the best ways to promote on Amazon.

How Can You Earn?

• Each item that is sold will earn you a commission.
• When a person clicks on your link, the link is active for 24-hours.
• That means if a person purchases the item within the time frame you'll earn a commission. However, if they purchase the item outside the time frame, you won't earn a commission.
• If a person purchases your item and other items that are related to your item, you can earn an advertising commission from the other items purchased.
• The commission isn't extremely high and depending on what you promote will determine your commission rate.
• Normally the commission rate on Amazon is 2 to 10%.

How Are You Paid?

• You'll need at least $25 in your account to request a direct deposit to your bank account or an Amazon Gift Certificate.
• If you want a check, then you'll need $50 in your account before the company issues a check to you.

Important:

In order to remain on the affiliate program, you must sell at least 1 item in 90 days. If you don't make any sales in 90 days, you will be terminated.

Have you ever sold for Amazon? What are your thoughts about this affiliate program?

I have been an Amazon Associate for a long time. I was an Amazon Associate when Blogger (or Blogspot) had a tool that let you build related affiliate links into your content. Remember that? No? Don't remember? Yeah. That's how long I've been an Amazon Associate. I used to have to a couple of aStores. Surely you remember those! Yeah. Those were discontinued too.

I've gone through the growing pains and cha … cha … cha … changes with Amazon and can honestly say … as they have gotten older, they've gotten better! If you are a newbie to affiliate marketing start with Amazon.

I only have one complaint with Amazon. They don't use PayPal. But I can live with that!

I am amazed that you have been with them for that long. Hopefully, you have made some good cash while at it. As for me, we parted amically after 1 year of working my head off trying to get some credible refferals and earn some decent cash. Well, it didnt happen and I had to count my losses and hit the ground, running,

This look like what I can pull through to learn I can start my own business online. I will do this for at least a year to learn the basics about trading and doing business online. I just need to start somewhere. Being an affiliate can help as a starting point.

Program change their rules very often, sometimes at the loss of the affiliate anyway. Soon we all will earn something like 4% of everything here everywhere, but I am all ears to hear other people experience here no matter what, thanks for information

Each time Amazon offers a new tool for the affiliate I give it a try. I tried to create a "store". That is not working out for me. I seem to do better if I just tweet my affiliate links.

I've been affiliate on Amazon for couple months, it was difficult to create a decent network, so i quit. They are constantly adding new features, it's definitely legit and worth a try if you are a beginner in affiliate marketing

Amazon Affiliate program is the largest affiliate program in the world however if you do not follow their rules you could never do good. It is not easy to promote Amazon affiliate program until you have target plan.

 

[cmoneyspinner]

It is true that the Amazon affiliate program is HUGE! The best thing is that you can find a niche of products and focus on sharing only those links OR you can share a wide range of merchandise. I have been an Amazon affiliate for years. I keep searching for that "magic product" that is going to earn me thousands. I haven't found it yet. But I am earning something from the various products I do promote.

The one think I don't like about Amazon is that they don't use PayPal. I don't like it. But I can live with it.

amazon for years have been paying me U.S. checks fortunately i can cash or deposit it since i opened a U.S.$ account here in the Philippines, but to be verified publisher now you need a landline they will usually call that number with an automated caller bot, and tell you a number where you can put into your account to be verified.

but they have disabled my account and they entertain no appeal all i have left with them is my kdp seller account in which i can make money by uploading ebooks for sale from U.S.2.99 to U.S.$9.99 that's the price range allowed for you to sell your ebooks with them on kindle. kdp = kindle publisher, but they give it away if the buyer happened to be on subscription of kindle unlimited.
