Took a while, but someone bought something and I got just under a dollar for it, now for another 50 years to make enough for a mars bar when I can finally get at it lol
Congrats! I'm still at zero sales lol, so I can only imagine how excited you must be.
That is good, I just checked mine and I am already 6.5 percent referral rate. I like to be 7 percent at least. I hope I can get there.
With 19 hubs? Good job! Took me about 50 to see sales start to trickle in!
Once you have got one Amazon sale, more will come flooding in! Congratulations.
Thanks guys, I know it is only one but that one always proves it is somehow possible
The first one is the most important, it tells you that this really work, just keep on going. Congratulation
May you have many more~
I hope so too, it is very hard at first...you never really believe it is possible but I hope now that I have broken it that it will happen for me more and more.
It is possible
Congratulations!
Hopefully, you have more to go along with your first, so you can have a party.
Got a question, when I check my affiliate settings my adsense says "active" but my Amazone says Set. Is that how it is?
Congrats to you. Getting first click or first sale has been something special. Keep it up.
The first sale tells you something, that it is possible.
Before that you are really just sitting there wondering if everyone is full of crap lol
I know it is a tiny amount in the grand scheme of things, but it is the first tiny amount I have had and that is always significant
i have had clicks but no sales- so well done and keep em coming
Congrats! You are on the right way!
Speaking about my experience, there are some sales every month but not enough... Still hope situation will improve very soon...
Another 2 items sold
Finally well on my way, cannot wait until I am getting them every day consistently woohoo!
(8 clicks, 37.5% conversion)
Congratulations, Sparhawke. Sure glad it wasn't another 50 years. I just added my first Amazon capsules today.

After 2 weeks of being an active member of HubPages, I finally got my first HP accolade. I know it isn't much but I'm just happy that all of my five submitted hubs were featured and I finally passed boot camp! ^^ Now, I'm just hoping to continue what I've already started here at HP and I do hope...

At last! I have finally had my first Amazon sale. It took 384 click but I'm finally there, my conversion rate is now 0.26! Yay.Weirdly the first item I sold has nothing to do with the items I have put on my Hubs, but I'm not complaining. A sale is a sale.

So I've worked on my novel for the past 3 years, finally buckled down and finished it this year. Just recently published it on Amazon Kindle, and I'm so very excited about it. The thing is, I don't know how to promote myself in the best way. And I don't have a ton of $$$ to spend on website design...
