After reading ZionIce’s journey thread, I started thinking about giving Amazon affiliate marketing another try.

I already have a few old websites with Amazon affiliate links, but this time I want to update the existing content, create fresh articles, and also build some new niche sites.

I’ll handle everything myself, from setting up the sites to creating content. I’ll probably use AI to help with content production as well.

The biggest challenge for me is still finding the right niches and keywords. Getting consistent organic traffic is always the hardest part of affiliate sites.

My Plan​

I’m not expecting huge results immediately. I’ll spend a few hours every week testing and improving things.

• Create 1 niche site every month
• Update and improve my old sites
• Publish new content consistently
• Focus mainly on organic traffic
• Track earnings and stats every month
• Try to reach $3,000/month eventually

I’m giving myself around 11 months to see what I can achieve.

If things start working, I’ll keep investing more time and build some proper authority sites.

If nothing really changes after 11 months, I’ll probably drop this side project and move on to something else.

I’ll update this thread from time to time and share the progress, results, mistakes, and lessons along the way.

Let’s see if Amazon affiliate is still worth it in 2026.

Sounds like a solid test. Curious to see how your first few months go.

Good approach. Testing it yourself is probably the best way to know if Amazon affiliate still works.
