How to make money with the Amazon affiliate program?

Inside Amazon Associates, you’ll find a variety of means to generate affiliate links. You can start placing these links on your blog or website to redirect visitors to Amazon. By clicking these affiliate links, people will be redirected to specific products you recommend on Amazon, and when they purchase something you will be making a commission for each sale.

Amazon offers three ways to add product links and ads on your website: Text links, Banners, and Native shopping ads.

Text links

By far the most efficient way to refer a visitor to Amazon is by using a text link within your website content. According to Darren Rowse from Problogger, who made hundreds of thousands from the Amazon affiliate program, 99% of conversions come from text links.

Banners

The easiest way to get a link on your site is by using a banner ad. However, it’s been proven not to be the most efficient way to generate sales.

Native Shopping Ads

Native ads are also not the most effective way of collecting sales and commission. They look beautiful, but they don’t convert as well as text links. You get fewer clicks because they look like an ad.

Choosing affiliate products to promote

People buy just about everything on Amazon. You should be able to find a good selection of related products to promote, whatever your site niche is.
The first thing you can do is check the Best Sellers page.

 On the left side, you can browse through Departments and pick a product category relevant to your website.

Always go with products closely related to your site niche. You can choose a broad category and niche down to the specific products to target visitors looking for particular items. This way, visitors are much more likely to click through and buy.

For example, Camera & Photo > Accessories > Bags and Cases > Filter Cases.

When it comes to what price point of items to promote, the rule of thumb is to go for middle-priced items. The low-priced items are usually easy to sell, but you receive too low of a commission. On the other hand, high-end products have much higher fees but won’t sell as easily.

This means that the best approach is to go for items around the $50 – $200 mark. At this price point, your commissions are good, and the items will be easier to sell.

Keep in mind that it’s important to promote high-quality products. So, keep an eye on the customer reviews and ratings.
