The Best Affiliate Commission?
Way back when we started this full-time blogging journey we discussed Adsense, and how ShoeMoney had gotten a cheque for $132,994.97. That was pretty fantastic!
However Earners Blog, has just blown that away - with a single transaction worth AU$14M - you can check it out here!
Unfortunately the transaction was cancelled almost immediately, but it lead me to do some thinking. Adsense brings in money in dribs and drabs, often pennies everyday - which is nice, really nice, to see it trickling in. However would you prefer to see nothing coming in and then one really big transaction every week or so?
Let me give you a bit of an example that happened to me recently, I have a site that contains both Google Adsense and Amazon’s affiliate program, Adsense for Search had made less than a dollar that day as per usual, but someone clicked through from that site and put a £200 order in with Amazon! The commission on that single product sale was £16 - that’s probably the single biggest commission I’ve ever earnt!
So back to the original question, what’s your biggest affiliate commission (and what was it for)? Would you prefer to do just one of those infrequently or have daily trickles of cash through a program like Adsense?
