Amazon is world’s biggest online store with large product catalog and high conversion rate. Amazon.com is also one of the pioneers of affiliate marketing and it is easy to recommend their products because of the reputation of the brand. But still people have mix opinions about Amazon associate program as they offer low commission and quarterly payments.
Amazon.com pays very low commission to its affiliates (4%) where as other top affiliate program offers about 20 to 25% commission. You can not expect much with one or two sales, you will have to make sales repeatedly to get some reasonable revenue and ultimately every thing will depend on your traffic. If you make multiple sales of a total value of 1000$ then the commission you earn is 40$, on the other hand side you can easily get 75$ to 100$ per sale with high paying programs.
In short Amazon is a quality monetization option that can add a lot of value to your site but you cannot earn much revenue especially with medium and low level traffic.
