Hi Magda, the changes didn’t affect us too badly because most of the items we sell weren’t slashed. I have a friend who sells a particular product that was in one of the categories that was just decimated, and yes, she was badly affected. It’s very underhand and not at all fair, but it is what it is. Yes, I think it’s worth it. But you’re still at the mercy of Amazon. Obviously, we’ve been smashed by Coronavirus, we’re on about one-third of our normal traffic, but the Amazon sales pages stayed fairly strong. The “incidental” Amazon earnings have gone though. Like when people buy a huge food shop via your links, that doesn’t happen because those items are 0% now. So yes, impacted, but ticking over. I do have to hold my hands up and say that I’ve barely bothered with the Amazon links lately, a lot of old links will have expired or become broken. But it’s only a small part of our income so not top priority. Best of luck.

I was wondering how your income has changed since the amazon affiliates commission rates cuts? Is your website mostly geared towards amazon products? If so, how has it been impacted and do you have any thoughts on whether its still worth it to have an amazon affiliate website?

Thanks!

Thanks, I’ll take a look. Yes, it was very annoying when Keywords Everywhere stopped being free. At that time I switched to SEMRush but stil, my favourite keyword research tool is Longtail Pro. It’s the one I’ve used for years and years while others I’ve just tried and not really got along wth as well.

I wanted to get on your radar and leave a comment because in the interview the guest mentions using Keywords Everywhere when it was still a free tool.

Of course Keywords Everywhere is now paid, and I think a great alternative for your readers would be our tool what’s my serp everywhere – a free keywords search tool, with unlimited searches displaying CPC and volume metrics.

It has 5 star reviews and 20k+ users. I’d love for you to try it and see what your thoughts are.
