Amazon is teh top most wonderful site i have ever visited in the internet. very recently I got registered with them as an associate. It was only two minute process. Up to now I have sold 5 books and earn some cash. There commissions are based on our performance if i sell more books I will earn more commission. The commission will be incresed according to my performance. Why I choose Amazon, because they are well established in the internet and it is a branded site. There is no risk involve with dealing with them.I can promote there books easily though my site. People will trust my stite when they see my site advertisements are powered by Amazon. That's why I have earned some money with this little time. So I believe I can go so much far with them. Hope I could make some more within months.

I also just signed up as their associate about just a few weeks ago, like two weeks ago? But i rather just testing up their affiliate program for now. Not yet sure how will it work for me, but the $100 payout is killing me. I thought of joining chitika before i joined them, but ended up with them finally, because of some bloggers' rant over chitika. Have anyone here used chitika?

The $100 pay out is if you want a check. You can get direct deposit or an amazon gift certificate. If you opt for the certificate turn around and sale it on ebay...

I've been an associate for three years now. I haven't made any big money. I make enough to run the site for free and have a little spending money... My site is an interracial site so, it hasn't become to popular yet. I've also tried branching off to other affliate programs since amazon percentage is so low! I remember I sold a 500 dollar item once and received 26 dollars. That was frusterating. If you don't sell at least 200 item in a pay period you won't make to much... here is a link to my site: http://www.madlilly.com

I don't know if you can get rich, but it's definitely a great program to sign up for. I think eBay has too much fraud these days, and Amazon gets more customers and traffic.
