Amazon Associates May 2015 Earnings

My earnings for May is still flat at $371.04, but now that I have started building new Amazon store websites I can see some momentum growing. There are more clicks and many of these clicks planted the 90 day Amazon cookie on people’s PC’s, so if people did not buy immediate, but come back within 90 days I will still get the commission. So I am building my commission pipeline. In April I build 8 new stores and in May I build 19 new stores. This is after not building any since Dec 2014. I normally start to see commission from new websites in 2 to 3 month. I can see the traffic on Analytics growing, so I am very positive to break $500pm again soon. I build my first 8 Fresh Store Builder (FSB)websites as a test to see how they compare to Xenia websites that are my top … Continue Reading →

My Amazon Earnings for March 2015

There was a big increase in earning from February and I am very positive about my future earning from Amazon again. More on that shortly. My earnings for March is $536.56. This is a good increase from Feb $371.66. What makes the earnings from March special is that it was earned from de-indexed websites in Google. When I look at my analytics I see the earnings came from Bing and Yahoo. It is as if the traffic from Yahoo and Bing is increasing, which is good. Bing and Yahoo have simmilar rules to Google so I think it will be only a matter of time before they also de-index these website. But for now I am enjoying the income. 🙂 It is as if the other search engine are more friendly or they take longer to act. And this seems to be longer than 12 month which gives my websites … Continue Reading →

My Amazon Earnings for Feb 2015

My Amazon Associates earnings was $371.66 for February. This was expected after the de-indexing of my websites, but I am pleasantly surprised that I am still making $371.66 from Yahoo and Bing traffic. Here is the screen shot of the Feb earnings. The conversion is good at 7.54% for a store website. There are plenty of click too nl 2693. My focus is now on Lyoness, MLSP and networking Superstars. I have not build a new Amazon site. I want to see what happens to the Bing and Yahoo traffic. It might still produce positive returns per year. If it does, I will be building Amazon websites again. There might be enough income from Google in the first 3 – 6 month it takes for Google to de-index the website and by then the Yahoo and Bing traffic might be enough to make more than $12 per year per website … Continue Reading →

Amazon Earnings for January 2015 and De-indexing

My January Amazon earnings is much lower than December, but not as low as what I was expecting. My earnings where $555.39. There are 2 big reasons for the drop in earnings. The first is that the shopping season has passed and the second is that All My Amazon Store Websites are de-indexed! There is about 230 of them. Most of the website were de-index about the beginning of the year. I can see in the analytics that the traffic from Big G stopped about 1 January. This was a huge shock to me, but I know why it happened. All these store websites scrape content from Amazon. So it is duplicate content and a big no-no to Big G. I was relieved to see that some of my websites had good traffic from Bing and Yahoo and this is where my traffic came from. The websites have not been … Continue Reading →

Amazon Earnings for November 2014

This post is late regarding my Amazon earnings, but it has been a busy month. I am now on holiday, so I have all the time now. It has been another record month for me with earnings of $704.00 for November.     I am at an referral rate of 7.00% but missed the 7.5% by 38 items. December should be another good month because of Christmas shopping. My focus has been auto spares the last 3 months and I don’t think many Christmas shopping will be done in this category. In 2015 I will diversify more. The goal of building 120 websites in 120 days will be a huge fail. The reason is that my focus has been on Lns and all my funds available to buy domains went into building my Lns shopping network. The return on investment at Lns is going to be slower than my Amazon … Continue Reading →

My Amazon Earnings for October 2014

I had my best one day earnings last month and now I have my best month to date. So my Amazon Associates experience has gone positive again after September disappointing results. Here is a summary of the figures: I think the 6.65% conversion is very good for non-review websites. I was 50 items short of 7.5% commission. This will be a good goal for me next, plus to go above $600.00. I was $4.43 short of hitting $600.00, but $595.57 is a new high and I am very happy about it! What do you think of my October figures?    

My Amazon August Month Earnings and New Goal

My Amazon earnings for August is in. I made $516.60.   I am happy with it, but I have learned a new lesson. You cannot set a goal and then stop. You must have one goal set after another otherwise you are not growing. My earnings have been stagnant for 2 months now, because I stopped building Amazon websites as I did when I had my 90 websites in 90 days challenge. One big positive in this down time was that I did an assessment of website performance and it was very interesting. I found my most profitable theme. I need to do some more testing before I tell the world, but it could mean that I can make more money from less websites in the future or in other words more money from each money making website. It is important to me to make more than $12 per year … Continue Reading →
