Affiliate marketing is more than Amazon and eBay. The vast majority of the industry is built on continuity models that pay closer to $40 for a purchase of a free trial, which usually results in making $2-$3 per click. Very few people have actually made serious money with Amazon. Successful affiliates get much better payouts. If anything, I think affiliate marketing OVERvalues the link. When you're making $2-$3 a click, you end up raising PPC bid prices significantly, which ends up forcing out anyone other than affiliates.
