I just had to put this out to the world somewhere, and this seemed like the best venue. Today I received an envelope from Amazon Digital Services Inc., which contained a check for $25.68, made out to me. This was a pleasant surprise.

To be honest, the Amazon commission rate for associates is a paltry and unexciting 4%. For this reason I haven’t really pursued any marketing through Amazon. Oh, I put up an Amazon store on my golf blog, I published one of my ebooks in Kindle format, and I mentioned some supplements here and there with links through my account. So I never really expected anything all.

The surprise is that I don’t see where the final $17.12 of this check came from. The Amazon associates pages are as obtuse to use as anything I have ever seen on the web. So I will just be grateful for my good fortune, however seemingly small it is at the moment.

Whew! Glad I could share that success with you!

Cheers,
Dennis
