Amazon affiliate is a tough one to make money on. You get a small percentage of actual *purchases* that a direct follow-through from your site generated. Unless much of your highly-trafficked website is designed to persuade people to purchase Amazon products, it is unlikely to add up to much. To put it in perspective, BiM has generated about $6 via an Amazon affiliate store in the past five years.
I have redesigned the website and added Google adsense - lets give that a go.
Would you like a link to bricksinmotion.com from my site?
T-shirts were, like, the worst failure ever. Only about 5% of people who committed to buying shirts in a poll that I said "please don't vote unless you fully intend to buy a shirt" bought a shirt. Still trying to sell the extras. Long story short, brickfilmers are mostly children with little spending money. Not a great market to exploit for cash, I've found.
Feel free to link to BiM!
Yeah - I can see that selling stuff could be challenging. I have begun to get a (small) income from adsense now. This is probably where it's at. Hopefully this will expand as the readership does too....Its still early days for brickflick
I have had success with my current 'store' page - have a look to see. Generates income without actual purchases taking place.
Not especially looking for a income but why turn it down.....once I have decided how to proceed then I can concentrate on great content.
Do you run other websites too?
