Spent hours and hours setting up the Amazon affiliate program, was told on many occasions by our viewers that they were clicking on them and after 3 months earned exactly 0. I don’t have time to go through it all again and frankly find it all way too confusing and complicated for me. 😞🧱👍🏼

Some great tips there! I didn't know that redirect links existed - this is something I'll definitely keep in mind in future.

You're amazing. Short and straight to the point. I appreciate it more than you know. You weren't using big fancy words and actually showing everybody what you mean. Thank you so much means a lot.

Amazing Justin! So helpful! I've saved your video for when my channel grows a little and when I can start using affiliate links! Thanks! 🤝

Hey Justin! You make Sunday’s the best days as you upload on sundays. I’m always looking forward for your videos! You help me so much! I’m also following you on Instagram! I also recently reached a milestone on YouTube thanks to you!

[izzyk]

So glad I watched this video, great shout about redirecting and continuously checking links! Thanks for sharing your great resources too

[Absintheskiss]

Good point about diversifying. Some people are trying to avoid Amazon so having an alternative for them is a good idea.

[CollinMichael]

So much value here. Would love to see more content on affiliate stuff. Thank you!

[StarWarsJay]

Hey Justin. Great video as always. The best I’ve ever done in AF was with an Amazon affiliate account and a website always making sure I linked to products that were relevant to my content. No point linking to kitchenware if your content is about cars for example. Just my two cents worth.

Your channel has really helped me. I started my channel 6 weeks ago and already have 100 subs. That feels pretty good, but it's hard to know what is good progress

[UnfilteredV]
