Most days I get at least 1 sale from the amazon associates program. Yesterday, the most popular day for shopping, I sold nothing? I find that extremely hard to believe. Looking back on the previous years I have done exceedingly well on that 1 day. But this year, ... nothing?
Now I understand all the variables fairly well, and was wondering if anyone else had a bad sales day for Black Friday ?
The first couple of weeks I did very well, but it then died. Finally got a couple more sales Friday, but that's far below what I had hoped for.
I probably did better last year for the month than I will this year with 5 times the traffic.
Or maybe cyber Monday will see 100 sales.
I got zero as well and I've had at least one sale daily this month- maybe we will get lucky and they will all show up tomorrow? lol!
Although I am greatly disappointed with my earnings ($0) for Black Friday, I am glad to see all of your optimistic responses. Thank you!
I hope we all have a great cyber Monday! ^_^
I got 50% more sales this Black Friday than I did a year ago when I had twice the traffic.
Having said that, last year my sales increased over the weekend with Cyber Monday being the best day.
Without much traffic this year I don't expect to do well.
I usually pay almost no attention to Amazon because I get so little. I don't even reach their $10 payout most months now..
Because of this thread, I just checked. Almost $20 for this month.. short money, but it will buy us a breakfast out..

Amazon earnings are updated for yesterday and I had my best day!! Seen over $800 of items ordered, once these ship it will take me into the 6.5% category. Probably small fish to some of you but it will help me break my Amazon earning record set last month.

All of my earnings across all platforms are up 8.92% from October 2010. Just considering HP, I'm up 5.1%. This is my second January on HP and my earnings have increased from January to January by 411%. This is how I judge whether or not my business is growing. On new platforms I expect to see...

Hi,Is it possible that the time right after a big event such as Black Friday actually has less (much less...) search engine traffic than normal?Because this is what I am seeing for my hubs... had a nice spike, now big crash. Am lower than 4 days ago now.

Amazon used to account for half my earnings on HubPages with sales happening every day. Now for the past five days (July 28 – Aug 1) I had zero sales. I’m still getting Google traffic to my articles that have Amazon capsules and Amazon text links. So I’m wondering what changed. Hopefully the HP...

So now that the holiday buying has kicked in I'm looking forward to my Amazon stats. Of course today I see they are late getting updated!
