Made My 1st $1,000 this month

76 replies
it's been over a year a since i began my IM career. but so far this month i have made $1,075 from Amazon.

followed Jan Roos system however i made the mistake of trying to build an armada of Amazon sites at once. well a year later and i finally made real money, only from one site 4 months ago i decided would be my baby and sole focus.

i know next month my sales won't as strong, but i dont care. (well i kind of do but still...)this is a good start

    Why that? Can't you put "new year's resolution" products on your site? Is it niche dependable, or product based?

    Anyways, it's always great to hear success stories. I hope you have a more profitable year in 2012.

    i know a good deal of it is Holiday shopping based, but i think there's no reason i can't expect at least $500 next month in sales. maybe i'm being a little over-zealous

    Good work. How many reviews do you have on the site which has been your sole focus?

    I've noticed a decrease in sales now, as its getting very close to christmas less people are shopping than earlier in the month.

    It seems if your sites are on the first page of Google you are almost sure to make money at this time of year if you have done your keyword research correctly.

    if you build it they will come I know this sounds off the track but if more newbie affiliates would just sit down and build tons of niche websites -they would see how this market works its called trial and error now that you made your first $1,000 congratulation its time to duplicate and make 10 more sites like that and so forth.

    When you say you focused do you mean that you are doing one large review site and still monetizing through amazon? Or have you changed business models.

      Amazon sites always earns a lot more during the holiday season. Christmas, Black Friday, Cyber Monday etc. After December sales fall back to regular levels for the rest of the year.

    obviously you should expect to make as much in the jan-feb months but its okay. just keep focus and keep working and you'll eventually get there.

    For a years worth of work, I say its reasonable. Ive seen some affiliates not make money until 11 month in and after 2+ years into it, they're making a full time living from IM. Just be consistent, work hard and youll eventually get to play hard also.
