The Amazon Associate scheme works well for me. There’s not much point promoting books though – higher ticket items pay more. I also don’t see too much point using the fancier widgets, banners, search boxes and direct links work best.
In return, how much do we need to pay if we are using amazon astore in our website?
We don’t need to pay anything to use an Amazon astore on our website. We will be making commission per sale
