I don’t know if it’s still like that. They had a bunch of nice tools available and were fun to work with but in the end not profitable enough to warrant the space.
Yes Dominique – it’s still like that …
I’ve built a wee Football (soccer) and gambling library out of Amazon.co.uk books. (CLICK HERE TO SEE IT)
Through a mix of trial and error … friends that wanted to support the site … we’ve worked out that unless visitors actually purchase the books on the same visit that they clicked on your links then NO CASH.
If you’ve ever shopped at Amazon or any major web portal that offers a cart then you’ll be aware that most people will put stuff into their cart – then go away and compare prices before finally committing to a purchase …
(which means the affiliate misses out!!)
:bullshit:
Over the course of a year we’ve sold about 60 books … who know how many were sold that we don’t get credit for … and the total value has been about $100 all up.
Not worth the effort – although I used the cash to buy some books for myself. I don’t know whether I will bother to keep the lists current – if I do it’s as a service to visitors rather than a serious revenue generator.
:rolleyes:
