How to Earn From Amazon

Amazon is one of the biggest eCommerce websites in existence – a behemoth in almost every marketplace you can think of, from books to clothing to gadgets. But the platform offers far more than just diversity in its range of products. 

It also offers many different ways to make money—some of which you may not even be familiar with.

In this article, we’ll explore different ways to make profit on Amazon.

 Here is a step by step guide on how to make money with Amazon. It just requires consistency and a little work to see your first few bucks. Once you get a hold of what’s working and what isn’t, it gets easier to make money on Amazon.

Sign Up for Amazon Handmade

Just like Etsy, Amazon Handmade lets artisans sell their own handcrafted goods online, including clothing, accessories, and jewelry.

To become an Amazon Handmade seller, you need to complete an application form, which lets you describe the nature of your work and production process.

1. Amazon Handmade Signup

Handmade is a blessing for pro and aspiring artisans looking to reach Amazon’s large customer base. Those approved even get a custom URL to go along with their Artisan profile, making it easy for their customers to find their shop.

2. Become an Affiliate

A simple way to make money on Amazon is to become an affiliate. If you run a blog, website, or even moderate a community, you already have an audience. By recommending interesting and high-quality products to your audience, you can earn a referral fee for your efforts.

You can even include links to products that help enhance the reading experience, such as slippers and blankets for getting cozy.

3. Try Merch by Amazon

If you’re good at design, you may be able to generate a decent income by selling T-shirts and other similar things through Merch by Amazon. The platform allows you to sell your artwork as Amazon products at no cost to you.

Here’s how to use it:

Create an account via the Merch by Amazon webpage

Upload your design and set a price

Select a color and write a description

Once you’ve done all of that, your shirt will go live on the Amazon marketplace.

A benefit of using Merch by Amazon is that Amazon takes the responsibility of packaging, shipping, printing, and providing support to the customer.

4. Earn Through KDP 

Another easy way to make money on Amazon is to publish your own digital books on the platform.

You can get up to 70 percent royalties on the overall sales. Also, you can print hard copies of your books through Amazon’s CreateSpace service.

The only barrier to making money with Amazon KDP is that you have to publish interesting books in a large volume. Although it’s possible to earn with a couple of best-sellers, volume is the key to success in the publishing game.

5. Sell Via Amazon FBA

If you want to make money on Amazon without having to worry about customer support, packing, and shipping, then you sign up for Amazon FBA.

With FBA, you can have Amazon care for your stock and deliver it to your customers. All you have to do is send your items to one of Amazon’s fulfillment centers.

As an FBA seller, you are only charged a per-unit fee, which depends on the weight and size of your item. There’s no fee for packaging, shipping, or handling to ship your items. You can learn more about the current FBA fee structure here.

A monthly fee is charged from sellers who have an inventory in a fulfillment center at the month’s end.

6. Complete Tasks on Amazon Mechanical Turk

Amazon‘s Mechanical Turk program works as a gateway for outsourced tasks.

Once you become a part of Turk’s army of remote workers, you can complete tasks like content validation, content moderation, and survey participation to make money on Amazon.

Essentially, Mechanical Turk was the by-product of Amazon’s efforts to cut down time-consuming tasks into smaller gigs.

7. Buy Offline, Sell on Amazon 

This method involves visiting retail stores like Target and Walmart to buy products at a discounted price and then reselling those products on Amazon for a profit.

To figure out what you can sell via retail arbitrage, the fees charged by Amazon, and rules for specific items, consider using the FBA Revenue Calculator. It’s an app that lets you scan barcodes via your device and provides useful detail such as the recommended price to charge for an item and Amazon fees.

8. Sell a Professional Service on Amazon

Did you know that Amazon also lets skilled individuals sell their services online?

Whether you’re a guitar teacher, a math tutor, or a carpenter, Amazon Services can put you in touch with people who require your help.

The program charges no monthly subscription, advertising, or startup fees. However, you need to have General Liability insurance with a $1,000,000 (U.S.) cap per occurrence. This information needs to be provided when you register for Amazon Services.

9. Create a Private Label Brand

This is one of the most profitable opportunities on Amazon.

The benefit of selling products under your own brand is that you have complete control over your listings, and you can even apply for Amazon Brand Registry to protect yourself from counterfeiters.

Here is a step by step guide on how to make money with the 

Amazon affiliate program without a website:

Step 1: Choose a Niche

Although it is possible to target many niches all at once, niching down is important for various reasons, including, but not limited to:

Building a brand/authority in a niche: If you choose a low competition niche, it is relatively easy to become and authority in the eyes of Google and your readers.

Understanding the subject matter: Once you understand the subject matter, it should be relatively easy to write more about that particular topic and become somewhat of an expert.

What Makes up a Good Niche?

Here are the main factors we look for when selecting niches for Amazon affiliate marketing:

Is there a lot of competition in the niche?

There are some niches, like weight loss or recipes, that we do not recommend for anyone. The best way to check a particular niche’s competition is to look at what the search results show when you search for long-tail keywords. Are there several large brands that specialize in the niche, or do the results mainly consist of small affiliate sites and forms? If it is the latter, this is a good sign.

Is the niche product focused?

By product focused, we mean are people in your niche often required to purchase lots of equipment in order to do the task. A hobby like mountain climbing is a good examples of this. You can also do some simple keyword research to see if there is a lot of search volume around product focused keywords in that niche like product reviews or “best product for X”.

How profitable is it to promote products in that niche

As you can see in the table below, the Amazon Associates program has varying payout percentages based off of what category a particular item falls under.

Is there a lot of searches for “how to” and product focused searches in the niche?

We prefer to write a mix of product focused articles and tutorials for our content. The task explained in your tutorials should be simple enough that people would want to do it themselves, but just complicated enough to require a tutorial. In some niches this could also set you up to upsell your audience on a course or consulting service.

Step 2: Keyword Research

Keyword Intent

If  Amazon Associates is your main monetization method, we recommend that about 80% of your articles should target buyer intent keywords, and about 20% of them should target informational intent keywords.

 Keyword Competition

If you are new to SEO, or would like to rank without the costs associated with link building, we suggest that you go after long-tail keywords. If you do not know what long-tail keywords are, they are simply keywords that are multiple words long instead of just 1 or 2 words. These keywords will have less traffic than less wordy keywords in the niche, but they will also commonly be less competitive.

Step 3: Choose a Free Content Publishing Platform to Use

While there are some benefits to using your own website, there are many more that come along with publishing content on high authority sites like: Medium, LinkedIn, or YouTube (if you want to make video content).

Some of those benefits include:

If you choose to do link building, it is much safer to do it on a high authority domain than it is on a new one. In fact, you can even do this at a level that may be considered spam on a regular website. Part of that being relatively high percentages of keyword related anchor text.

Step 4: Write the Content and Do On Page SEO

Many SEO’s or affiliate marketers will try to make niche blogs with subpar content, but this can lead to fighting an uphill battle. It is important, both for rankings and conversion rates, that your content is high in quality. When people are on your article, Google will use user engagement as a major ranking factor. 

On Page SEO

When doing on page SEO we recommend using a tool like Surfer SEO. It will backwards engineer the pages that are already ranking, and give you data driven suggestions that you can use for your page.

Step 5: Promote the Content on Social Platforms 

Getting referral traffic and social signals to an article can help it rank both faster and higher in search engines, not to mention that you may get some conversions just from the social promotion itself. You can easily get some traffic to your informational articles by posting in Facebook groups or on forums like Quora. 

Step 6: Wait

Usually we find that articles published on high powered domains like LinkedIn tend to take about 2–8 months to settle in Google, so just allow them to sit for a bit. In many cases if you properly did your keyword research, content writing, and published on a high authority domain, you should be ranking high already. 

Step 7: Link Building 

One of the advantages of publishing your content on a high quality domain like LinkedIn or Medium is that you can build links with very little risk. For this step we recommend the following:

Foundational Links

These links include links like social profiles and citations. They should give you a small boost in the search engines, but their main purpose is to provide a link and anchor text foundation so that you can easily build stronger links. We suggest using all naked urls and generic anchor text for these links.

PBN Links

This works great when ranking parasite pages. A service like Superstar SEO’s PBN service can get you ranking on it’s own. Assuming you have created a link foundation already with un-optimized anchor text, we suggest that you use keyword related anchor text for at least 10% of the high quality PBN links you buy. Just make sure to not use the exact same anchor text multiple times as this may look spammy to Google.

Guest Posts

The effectiveness of a guest post will vary greatly based upon the quality of the website and content used for the guest post. We suggest getting handwritten content for these guest posts and confirm the website you are posting on has real search rankings by plugging it into a tool like Ahrefs or SEMrush. You can use this service to get the guest post for you.

Step 8: Remarketing and Email Marketing

The reason we marked this step as optional is because it is fully possible to have a profitable blog without it, but it can expand your revenue if you choose to do it. Keep in mind though that because this article is about how to do rank without a website, getting people to opt-in to email lists or setting up remarketing pixels may not be possible on some content publishing platforms.
