Stop wasting your time with affilicate websites

Personally I've done pretty well with Amazon, but my main niche is one that focuses on one product that has numerous products associated with it. The benefit of this is that when someone clicks through to Amazon from my site, they'll not only buy the product I'm touring, but the associated products as well since Amazon is suggesting them.

Unlike some categories that the suggestions are irrelevant, the suggested products for me go hand in hand.
I'm not giving away my niche, but the closeness of the products is like having a link to a rolling pin and then the suggested product is a bowl to make the dough in.

It's all about finding the right products at the right commission and level of competition.
In terms of links, affiliate websites work extremely well when boosted with niche edits that are high quality.

I know that @MisterF has been in this game for many a year and knows the quality niche edit sites from the shit ones

No business can run without a third party
If you are in affiliate marketing, the third party is websites such as Amazon and Clickbank.
If you own content sites with ads, the 3rd party is an Ad company such as Ezoic and Adthrive.
If you are selling stuff online, the 3rd party is the payment processor such as Paypal and stripe.
Giving up third party means leaving online business.
 
It's hard to stop when You have good business with it
 
Scam is a common thing in affiliate marketing business. You should have thought about it earlier.

Proof? I couldn't care less what you do. I have no desire to prove anything to anyone. Doesn't affect my stacks of cash. Advice is take it or leave it.

What a cop-out, first you made a (wild) statement and when you get called out on it you claim you don't have to back your shit up with evidence...

Let's see, what can I do..

1) Spend time proving and backing up my "wild statements" with evidence, so that I can get the approval of some poor people who "called me out".

or

2) Cop-out and not give a fuck and continue to stack cash.


I choose to cop-out.

Stop wasting your time with "affiliate" websites. These affiliate providers have complete control over weather they want to pay you or not. Wasted a lot of time building these only for some wage cuck at Amazon or wherever to ban your affiliate account when ever they feel like it. It's modern day slave labour. Don't relay on any 3rd party to pay you ever.

ok tell us what will we do?
 
So what to do now if google or others killed it?
 
well of course its best to have your own products ,but this its not easy and it takes a lot of time
And why to depend on amazon only ? when they are plenty of networks to choose from

Are they your income sources, sir?

How is that with CPA marketing? Is that 301 youtube method still working for y'all guys?

What about affiliate marketing working purely with content farms or high output, well-trained, niche-specific machine learning models (mostly on expired domains)?

This is more expensive than running own business with own digital products. Stop being a fool in year 2022.

Affiliate marketing doesn't make sense if you don't have complete automated systems like Lucky.sparks in place. It simply won't work.

Go to any marketing related job and check what they're doing there. 99.95% of cases they don't do affiliate. For 50 jobs I had applied to in the past, only one of them was focused around affiliate marketing and that was about running a program - not about using a program. But when it comes to margins and outcomes results were mediocre compared to selling the product by the company on its own. :)
 
I don't see any answers saying "I made an affiliate website 2 - 3 years ago and today it makes me money".

It's all about having 7 - 8 year old website which google will love. But that's just as with any authority out there.

Put money on the table and they will let you thrive... for some time.

Proof for people who still try to make it with amazon in 2022:

No one is "hiring" affiliates on the job boards. You have to apply for an affiliate program.

Fuck outta here with this bullshit. If you want to sell your own product, then do so. Affiliate marketing is dead anyways so why are you applying for a job? Derp.

Not sure if you're serious so let's just end this conversation here.

He did provide evidence a few pages back to be fair ... all the 7-figure big ballers he knows have their own products. /s (of course)

Damn, if you run a 7 figure business (it's true for affiliates too) you most likely have a team and teams employ people. And you don't find these teams as often as you would in the past. They definitely were easier to find and writing product reviews is not that lucrative these days. Shocking?

Show me an affiliate who is doing something huge and does that quickly in non-spammy ways in 2022. Is that your favorite youtuber you just can't resist to watch cause he says you'll be a millionaire soon with his next genius strategy? He is actually successful for reasons other than subscribing to the amazon affiliate program.

explain? you can diversify but in the end you need 3rd parties. If we're talking crypto, it's terrible for the customer and volatile. And you still need a 3rd party payment platform really, so in the end it's worse than the old ways.
