How to Earn Income 

Probably the most effective way to earn income from amazon.com is to add links to amazon.com on your website for books or other products that relate to the books or other material that your are pointing to on amazon.com. For example, if you deal with golfing equipment, you could set up an educational section about golfing and include a full library of golf books, all of which include link to amazon.com that also includes your identification number. Your objective will be to get your site ranked in the search engines so that new customers, prospects or web surfers will find your site when they are looking for golfing equipment.

Associates earn referral fees when visitors follow links from their site to Amazon.com and make a purchase. The link can be to an individual title, a page of search results, or the Amazon.com home page. Search boxes can also be placed on your Associate site. Referral fees are calculated on the sale price, not the list price, of each qualifying item. Amazon offers two compensation options for Associates during Q3, 2004. The classic fee structure is the default setting.

A big difference between eBay and Amazon is that Amazon only pays commissions on purchases of products made from Amazon while eBay includes a relationship with commission junction. Commission junction allows you to really open up your opportunities by selecting the goods or services that compliment the goods or services on your website.
