Amazon Associates - dead or just poorly managed now?

Amazon Associates - dead or just poorly managed now?

So I keep hearing everyone say Amazon Associates is still a decent program but honestly I dunno anymore. Tried a few months ago and the conversions are dead low unless I spam like crazy and even then the payouts don't feel worth the effort anymore. Then I see all these gurus talking about how it's still great passive income or whatever but their case studies are always with massive volume and exclusive links. Meanwhile I get ghosted by AMs left and right, offers are stale or locked in regions I don't target. I'm starting to think maybe it's just not worth my time anymore or maybe I'm doing smth wrong. Anyone actually still making decent $ from Amazon and if so, what's the secret now? Or are we all just wasting time chasing a dead horse?
 
42% of my clicks tanked last month, same deal. I remember when I made a few hundred a week, now it's like pulling teeth. Seems like everyone got jaded, or maybe it's just a numbers game now.
 
careful with thinkin its just dead bruh, maybe ur just not hitting the right niches or ur traffic is trash. u ever try diversifying or using different regions? or maybe the traffic quality makes a difference lmao
 
I hit a peak of 1500 a month back in 2020, but now it's like pulling teeth too. One thing I noticed is the longer you stick with it, the more you realize Amazon's changing all the time and not always for the better. I started experimenting with niche sites and regional targeting, and honestly, the difference is noticeable. So maybe it's not dead, just need to shake up the approach
 
Been doing this 3 years fr, and honestly I feel ya. The more I grind, the more it feels like Amazon's just not what it used to be. Maybe it's not us, maybe it's just the market shifting or some kind of
 
ngl 80% of ppl I know say Amazon is dead, but I still make some decent $ here and there. how long u been in it? maybe u just gotta switch tactics or find a new niche.
 
Different angle: maybe Amazon's just changing things up, not dead. Their program's still there but gotta adapt to new rules or cookie policies. Smh, they tend to mess with the structure sometimes.
 
Start diversifying your income streams, cuz relying only on Amazon is sus, but are you seeing better conversions elsewhere?
 
only 10% of affs actually diversify enough, smh, so many still just rely on Amazon. 2) have you tried other programs that pay better or convert higher for you? 3) gotta ask, which ones are working best for you rn?
 
Last month i tested 3 different niche networks and saw 25% higher CR than Amazon for the same promos. u should look into niche networks that cater specifically to ur audience, cuz Amazon's broad approach isn't always best
 
Been doing this 3 years, and yeah, Amazon's kinda lost its edge, especially with all the new rules and fees. I switched to some niche CPA offers and got better results, tbh. The key is diversifying, fr.
 
bruh, totally. relying on Amazon rn feels like riding a bike with no brakes, gotta branch out to legit CPA or niche offers.
 
careful with just relying on Amazon now, lol. they seem to be tightening the screws more than ever. gotta spread out to other offers, it's the only way to stay alive in this game.
 
Spot on. I remember back in the day I crushed on Amazon, but then they changed the rules overnight and my commissions tanked. Had to scramble to find other stuff that actually pays.
 
Actually Amazon Associates isn't dead just super risky atm but if you wanna keep it steady start building a list of email subscribers and promote offers directly to them instead of relying solely on the site traffic.
 
i dont think its dead just super shady now. u gotta ask urself, how long can u keep churning out content for these commissions that might just vanish? u ever tried building ur own product or service?
 
appreciate the input fam, yeah amazon's kinda unpredictable but still got that traffic if you know how to adapt. diversifying is key, imho, but not all niches convert the same everywhere. been testing some niche networks, some pay better but gotta be careful with cookie policies too. y'all got any tips on high-converting programs outside amazon?
