Make money with Amazon.com!
 How does it work? Podcasters place specially formatted links to Amazon.com on their Web site(s) and then drive listeners to their site(s). When a visitor clicks through one of these links to Amazon.com and then makes a purchase, that sale is automatically tracked and the podcaster can earn a share of the revenues from such sales (up to 8.5% of the price of the purchased items). Is Amazon's Associates program for you? Ian Bernard, host of "Free Talk Live" shares the following: "In the world of podcasting, one of the most difficult things for a show to do is generate advertising dollars. Many podcasts cater to a niche, and as a result their ad prospects are slim at best. The chance that any prospect will actually buy ad time at a decent rate is also virtually nil. Why should they? Let's face it. Most podcasts just don't have a very wide reach. Amazon's Associates program is the solution for the podcasters who would like to make money from their hobby. It works brilliantly because each of my listeners is an online shopper. Most have probably already shopped at Amazon. I don't have to be concerned that they might not want the product or service being offered by a regular advertiser, because Amazon has virtually everything! The Associates program allows each of my listeners to buy what they want, turning their loyalty to my show into profits. The only way a show with loyal listeners can fail with the Associates Program is to not promote it."
