Comment on Ask HN: Does anyone actually make any money from Affiliate Advertising?parent

Comments

They really are on different levels. You can push an affiliate offer through a review site, through an email list, through ppc ads, ppv traffic. Adsense is pretty ordinary, and works in situations when users want more than a site or page can deliver for the most part.

So it is not a good idea to put an affiliate banner on a normal page, hence perhaps why I have not gotten a single sale. Affiliates just require a different strategy?

you need to recommend products. I've had some success w/ list posts full of recommended products.
