I feel like everyone knows, but I am an Amazon Affiliate, and I do have ads on my site.
I am an Amazon affiliate. If you don’t know what that is, it means that all the Amazon links on my site are tracked, and I receive a portion of your purchase.
It’s not a large amount by any means. It could be anywhere from 1% to 10%, depending on the category, brand, third-party seller, and a couple of other things.
Depending on the month, I’ll make between $10-400. It is not that often I have a large month. A couple of times I did, they were July for Prime Day and October when I wrote more posts with products.
That’s also why I write a lot of fun idea lists. You don’t have to buy what you clicked on.
It only gives me a portion of your checkout. So for me, it’s perfect. I just write cool lists I like to write about and make like $1 to $7 off a post. My most ordered-through post is All Things Pumpkin.
Also, I take things in Amazon money! That way, I can purchase household items: toilet bowl cleaner, office/school supplies, dishwasher tabs. They’ve even started letting me use it for groceries. Which is nice!
Anyways, depending on if you have an ad blocker on, you might not see them. But I do have affiliate marketing ads I use. It works the same. I receive a portion of your sale. Again, it depends on that specific ad as to how much I receive. That one isn’t as much; the most I’ve made in a month is $75, and it was because a friend kept ordering through the ad when making an order on the site.
Every little bit helps when running a blog. The clicks are appreciated.
Anyways, here are some ads for you that I have on the site. Feel free to click.
