Earning with Amazon Associates - Why is it so Difficult?

in amazon •  7 years ago 

Hi,

If you have a blog and you have monetized it, you must be knowing that one of the way to monetize your blog is to use amazon affiliates service. All you have to do is create an Amazon Associates account with Amazon, and then paste the banner or text ads links into your blog. Whenever someone clicks those ads and buy the products thereafter, you get paid a fixed percentage of the total purchase value as your commision.

Once the Blog is famous, the amount of traffic and therefore the number of ads clicks increase and therefore some people earn huge revenue. It is a big struggle for average blogs to increase the earnings. For example see my associates earning reports for past 2-3 months.

Around 2000 clicks but only 6 buys. That is such a low ratio. Maybe it is because I give only the links of the books, because I run a study blog related to Engineering subjects. So I have a particular niche, and I give links of that particular niche only. I wonder where I am getting it wrong.
