UPDATE: It's a shame that Amazon lowered their commission rates on 4/14/2020 but it's not altering any of my strategies. Many RU-vidr's are catching the trend by making videos about it saying things that encourage sharing (making the video go viral). I personally don't think it's a big deal for a few reasons, mainly because Amazon conversions are so high, and it's easy to swap out links to different affiliate programs win a few clicks. I hope that helps shed some rational advice on it from someone heavily involved :)

@Jana-cj2yk 4 года назад

Hi Greg! I just recently made a RU-vid channel and just signed up for the Amazon affiliate program. For the “10 pieces of content on your website” do you have to make your own website (like using Wix like you suggested) or can your “RU-vid channel” be your website and you make 10 separate videos including affiliate links in your description box? Hope my question makes sense! Thank you!!!

@BoxLaneProductions 4 года назад

ah bummer I was just wondering it was bad from hearing that a while ago but to hear they've done it again doesn't sound enough from the previous breakdowns I heard (it was a hearing in congress not a yt vid, where businesses that built on that system found they were in the hands of a semi monopoly)

@shakir90210 4 года назад

I would say that I hope you'll make a lot of money, but I'm pretty sure you already do and will become wealthy because you are such a pro and a real go-getter.

@747dom 4 года назад

Amazon Associates just dropped it's affiliate commissions by up to 80% on April 21, right in the middle of the pandemic. Good timing Amazon, just when your loyal affiliates who have worked hard to send you traffic need you most.

@GregGottfried 4 года назад

Agreed... I dont think they made a good judgement call just now. Their stock is up roughly 8% when the entire market is down about 18%. They are excelling as a company right now and by making this cut, it will be increasing their bottom line even further. The good news is that a lot of people are not happy with this so I dont imagine they will stay low for very long.
