Guy Gets Kicked Off From Amazon. Loses $400.
Just read this really simple post about a guy who just got booted from Amazon's Affiliate program and lost out on the $400 in commissions that he had already accumulated.
Although ProductCritic participates in Amazon's Affiliate program, it is not a material part of the sites revenue. How unimportant is it? How about less than $20 in affiliate commissions so far this whole year!
I'm not sure why the revenue (and clicks) from Amazon is so low. To be fair, we have mainly put in Amazon links because they have a lot of good general information about each camera, camcorder, and cell phone and is a good place for our visitors to view the features of a product (but not necessarily the reviews).
Because we think the Amazon links are helpful for our visitors, we're going to keep the links available but I'm seriously thinking about using a different affiliate partner.
Anyone have any good ideas?
