Earn A Living On Amazon

You can sell your own merchandise on Amazon or become an Amazon associate, steering folks to buy Amazon-offered merchandise for a commission. Otherwise, what you earn is not cash but gift cards. See the suggestions at http://frugalliving.about.com/od/storespecificsavings/tp/Get_Free_Amazon_Gift_Cards.htm.

Hello Fabulouslady,

This is an excellent question with many possibilities for an answer, mainly based on individual opinions of Amazon.com.

However, there are certain factors involved which can determine what might be best for you - Full time, part time, or just on the side. Here are just a few:

• How familiar you are with how most reputable online money-making websites work.
• Amount of time, and effort, you are willing to spend each day for your online business.
• The frequency and Number of items you will be selling on Amazon
• The current supply and demand for each item you will be selling (as a seller). Or the level of experience you bring to the table (as when providing a service).
• The ratings and reviews received from customers who purchase from you. (ideally, the higher the rating, the more people will see you as a serious seller or service provider, thus possibly generating more business)

Overall, the answer is - Yes, it is possible for an individual to earn a living through Amazon.com. However, this is not for everyone.

The following links provides information on money-making opportunities Amazon.com has to offer:

Online Seller: Getting started with selling on Amazon at either a personal or professional level Sell on Amazon

I wish you the best of luck at becoming a success with any online opportunity you decide to try out.
