I don't "scatter" products. I carefully place them and write targeted sales copy. (You can't have an astore on a hub.)
For me, most of my early hubs weren't geared towards keywords and promoting products so it took awhile for me to stumble onto something that made people want to buy the product on Amazon. Now, with a more targeted approach and some research, I'm able to utilize Amazon better and I'm making money at it.
You have to remember that people either have to already want to buy something when they land on your page, or you have to convince them to buy something. I look at my page and ask myself if what I've written makes ME want to go buy the product.
BTW.....Nelle and Relache can probably teach more about how to make money on Amazon than anyone on HubPages.
Ditto what KCC said. I've had success with Amazon. I found it helps to write Titles and summary text that attract people who are in a shopping frame of mind.
And for the record, everything I have learned about Amazon products I have learned from Nelle. She is a Goddess!
I have had some success with Amazon, meaning I have gotten a few decent payouts. And I only place amazon ads relevent to the subject as best I can. No real experience here, just starting writing, learning and placing stuff as I go along. Of course, most of the stuff purchased wasn't what was on my ad, but they clicked and got there. I guess that is the point. Of course this month I have hundred of clicks and no sales. So take my experience with a grain of salt.
I'd rather place a few Clickbank links instead of Amazon.
Amazon has very low payouts, lucky enough if you sell a plasma TV on one of your hubs.
Al.
Bgpappa, what do you mean, you only place certain ads? How can I place an ad on my hub?
I have had over 100 clicks on Amazon but never a purchase. I have stopped placing Amazon on my Hubs. However, I should point out that I write informational hubs that don't lend themselves well to products.
Just like anything, find what works for you and stick with it. That is what I am doing.
I'm just starting to find success on Amazon. I've been trying to gear specific products for the holiday shopping season, which has been working so far. There are many people on here who've been very successful, though, like Nelle, so listen to any advice they give!
I'm so new at this, but I did stumble on something.
I have just applied to be an Amazon affiliate, but haven't received word yet on the approval.
Two days ago, I did a review for an appliance and didn't even realize that the product is targeted on Adsense. So there can be a double advantage there. I did get some clicks on the Adsense ads, even though I don't have any Amazon capsule yet.
