Unexpected items I’ve sold through Amazon Associates

November 4th, 2010

A few years ago, I signed up with Amazon Associates.  This is a service of Amazon, where you can put links into your articles to Amazon products

Say your article is something about Obama, you could link to his biography on Amazon.  When a reader clicks through the link, and buys something off Amazon because of your link, you will get a percentage of the sale.

Even if the reader does not buy the exact item to which you’ve linked them, you still get a percentage of whatever they buy.

My articles link mostly to books, movies and music, so it’s surprising that sometimes I get odd sales through Amazon.  Here’s a list of some of the odd things which people have bought after coming from my site CountyHistorian.com
