I started getting really excited when I started making commissions this year, so I started up some how-to blog posts. Here is what I've written on it so far.

things you can do even if you don't blog

I am really curious how this poll is going to turn out and what tips everyone has to share. I've read some great ideas here in the forums from fellow bloggers.

I have an affiliate code that I recently got and only used it myself with one order, my problem is that I have absolutely no idea how to even look at my commissions or how to get paid. I just can't seem to figure it out. Any help?

this may help commissions info

you can choose to receive money or you can apply your commissions to orders right from your shopping cart. there is a waiting period before they are available to you. in the mean time you can see your commission amounts on your affiliate desktop.

I am starting to get commissions averaging around $30 per month. I cannot wait to get either the blog or website up and running, that will really help. I do have my code out there on a few sites, though.

Oh, I am a member of three sites that allow members to blog. I do a summary review on items and have my code and a widget. It might have helped, that is when sales went up a slight bit.

I don't make much, mostly around $5-$10 a month... I also don't pimp it a ton, but once in awhile.

Lol, anywhere from $2-$11. But it's nice, it helps with shipping.

I made over $100 this month. My blog really helped. I was making only 50ish. However, my mom and her friends at work started using my code. I try to give it out to others. I randomly drop it places for people to pick up. Hehe.

In 2011, i had 1 check for $63.02. 2012, I've had $61, 53, 124, 83, and am about to receive one for 102, then i currently have 106 for sept/oct period. i need the new check and that one for kids' bdays!

do you know when they ship em out for Aug check?

And I was told, you can use your own banner to place orders and gain commissions so i do that if i place any and all orders over $50. i dont need 15% off because it won't give me much commission at all to do that so i pay the full price and get more = 20%. I try to not make an order til i have $100 worth of points and/or gift cards or more

i didn't know we could use our own links and get the 20%. some companies don't allow that. soooo good to know that we can. ty! also with that idea would be to use other coupon codes when available and still get the discount. (not a partner code of course or it would defeat the point)

not sure if they've sent the august checks yet. I would think they should be on there way.

im not sure about coupon and your code. I was told by another affiliate that you can use own banners to place orders, so I have been and been making nice commission b/c i dont make many orders under $100, so i save up long as i can.

And you're welcome

You should set up a paypal account. I think it's faster than getting the checks. You set up the paypal account to deposit right into your checking account. This is what I do. I got mine on Friday. They are behind because Monday was a Holiday.

I have paypal, but JR said it charges interest or some % rate to do paypal payment so i just say check and deal with going to bank.

I've made as little as $90 and as much as $330 in a month. The average is somewhere around $200, though it's going up.

Mine is GirlyJuice.net but I actually make most of my commissions by recommending toys on a sex forum I'm a part of.
