Online Writing Income

With so many companies offering affiliate programs, I find Amazon to be one that is a no brainier to add to the freelance writing income arsenal. After all, who hasn’t heard of Amazon?

Pros

The benefit of becoming an Amazon affiliate is that no matter what you write about, Amazon has a product to compliment the article. If you write for sites that allow you to add affiliate links, it’s a quick and easy way to make a couple of extra bucks.

Cons

The commissions aren’t very high unless you get tons of traffic and lots of sales. The commissions are graded on a sliding scale. The more products you sell the higher the commission.

Bottom line, this past Christmas season when so many retailers were groaning about poor sales numbers and lack of profits, Amazon had one of its best holiday seasons ever. It pays to stick with a winning team.

Sign up is easy. All you have to is sign up, write a few articles, place your links and forget about it. Amazon does the rest. All you have to do is watch your commissions grow.
