I can't speak for anybody else, but for me, ebay has given me way more money than Amazon. I guess it just depends on the person, though.
Yes, it is true for my earnings too. Thanks for your answer.
Wow, Ruchi! I'm glad somebody else feels the same way I do!
I got nothing from either,...don't understand how they work, even though I've been signed up for a long time now.
For me the bottom line would be where I would get the most sales from, which is impossible to determine.
I've also received more money from Ebay than from Amazon.
I think Ebay pays you for every click and Amazon pays only someone buys something.
I monetise "sales hubs" where I expect regular sales with Amazon; I monetise "informational hubs" where people rarely buy, with eBay.
I find I get about equal earnings from both.
Honestly, I haven't made a penny with either one! But I've been on Hubpages for only a little over three weeks now
This is totally dependent on what you write about.
In my experience I get smaller amounts from e-bay on a regular basis but Amazon sales lead to a bigger commission when you can get them. Not really an answer but I have a feeling everybody will have a different experience.
I get some cents from eBay every day and i like it because it pays per click, Well for Amazon, i rarely use Amazon capsules on my hubs, may be i should but Amazon won't pay until someone buy an item. May be that is the put off.
I can't speak for Amazon, because I'm in Illinois and Amazon's program isn't available here. I do make a bit of change daily though with eBay and even more when someone buys an item. I am happy to see others are doing better with eBay also.
I would love to promote products on Amazon, but unfortunately I can't. boo.
So far I have been unable to make even a cent with eBay, meanwhile I made some earnings with Amazon. Yes, it only pays when someone buys something that is linked to your hubs, but still this seems to me a better way as eBay looks like it is dead for me .

For the life of me, I can't remember why I would have -.05 earning in Amazon. Can someone explain this to me?

We are going to increase Amazon earnings for most of you! Amazon is becoming part of the HP Earnings program. In early November folks will have the opportunity to switch to get paid their Amazon earnings through the HP Earnings program. For new Hubbers, this will greatly simplify...

The money that you earn in the eBay sales reports for sales you make, where does it go?.How long does it take to get paid?

I wanted to hear from some of the more experienced hubbers and see if the amazon and ebay affiliate programs make very much for them? I assume that they end up being very little of your overall earnings, but I wondered if they are worthwhile. Thanks!

It is happening for the first time ever that i am seeing no amazon sales for the past 7 days. Is it me alone?

I'm a bit behind the ball having been absent for a bit and my Amazon earnings have gone way down as a result, so I'm considering switching to the HP Amazon Program and am wondering if in fact most Hubbers are earning more from the HubPages Amazon Program, as it states. I believe when this came out...
