I agree about the placement; I'd put it to the right of the title bar and shorten that by 1 1/2 inch; hardly anybody uses the whole title.



That's putting your light under a bushel, indeed. I will not see it on a regular basis, so won't be reminded. And your more casual user, just won't see it at all.

They can limit the of Characters in the tittle(no reason for more then a few word) and make the size smaller as well. this would give room for even more advertising if needed.

6% for gift cards? That is really high.

You know that you can buy a gift card and redeem the code yourself, right?



So if I bought $300 worth of cards thru the
Wiz, and spent the $300 myself thru the Wiz,
it's that a double whammy for him?

I would guess that they would not give anything for orders that you pay for by gift card, although I may be wrong on that. It's probably in their affiliate terms somewhere.

It says if an associate himself buys a card, he gets
no fee. But I suspect he gets no fee on what a
person buys with the card, Amazon would be paying
twice. That's why the fee is so high, 6%.

6% really does seem high. I get 3% cash back on my credit card (its the amazon visa, issued by chase) for buying something at amazon (gift cards count). So, if I buy a gift card through an affiliate link, they are paying out 9%? That seems very, very high. If that's true you can essentially buy amazon gift cards at a 9% discount. I'm surprised that you don't see them on sale for less than face value.

Chase is coughing up the 3%. The fine print might say "up to 3%". It's hard to get a proper accounting of card cashback, in my experience, and with most cards there is a limit to what you can get in a year.

Somebody said books would not be included. I was thinking 'books only' for the Wizard, as an author. Shows what I know.

Frankly, I'm shocked that we didn't know about the Wiz's Amazon account. I was gonna suggest creating one!

But now that we know, it's gotta be more prominent. Near the TOP of each page.

It needs to be BIGGER and placed on the uper portion of the page. About 85% fo the time I don't even see it.

I appreciate this site, and WoO, is not loaded with junk so that it loads quickly and there are no disractions. But perhaps you've carried the user-friendliness of this site too far? An add or a sales link or a donate button are no good if people don't see them, or if you have to tell people where to look for them.

Another thing you can do is start a book review/discussion thread, and post links direct to the books being reviewed.

It's not up to 3%; it's 3%. The accounting is easy; it's 3% on anything from amazon (1 or 2 % on everything else). I have had this card for years and never had a problem. I bought $2000 in gift cards at once a few years ago and I got my 3% with no problems.

The amazon card has no cashback limit. I know that some other cards do; this one doesn't

definitely put the logo somewhere else. Whenever I am on a page of the forum I only scroll down as far as where the next page buttons are. How about putting a banner in between this box that I am typing in and the last message that is right above what I am seeing right now.

Sir,

Put the ad for Amazon wherever you would like. It is your call; it is your site. My thought is that I will forget this and buy stuff from Amazon without clicking through the link. Why? I can't find my keys half the time. I call my kids three or four names of the other kids before I get it right. I forget where my beer was placed.

I visit this site every day and the link being visible to me every day will remind me...

Maybe I will even buy enough from Amazon this year for you to take the family to dinner!! Somewhere cheap, though...

Thanks for listening!

It does pay well. I've been here 4 years and
yesterday was the first time I ever scrolled
to the bottom of the page. Why would I, or
anybody, do that on purpose. The banner
will die there.

With all due respect, Mike, I also disagree. There is no reason to scroll to the bottom of the page to even see where the Amazon link is placed; once I see the "next page" navigation thing, I'm gone, having never seen the Amazon link. I do think you're seriously underestimating how much money is being spent at Amazon. I spent about 1500 last year there, and that was a low year for me, and I bet lower than many others on here. Would have been 50 or better for you, had I known enough to click thru this site. Please try moving it up where it will be seen and give it a few months before you dismiss the idea?

I agree. And I agree with Babs: there's a nice spot next to the page number boxes where it will fit without being obnoxious.

And so what if people think it's obnoxious? Those people wouldn't click thru, or respond to the donate link. So f--- 'em. Those of us who will happily use your Amazon link should be encouraged to do so without the challenge of finding the damn thing.

I generally agree with not having obnoxious advertising (I tend to block ads very aggressively -- I had the old bovada ads blocked because I found them very annoying) but I think that this one is fine.

I agree that it's best not to make the page less usable (if I have to scroll past ads to get to the usable part of the page, I'm blocking them for sure) but if it could be worked into the top part (as part of the WoV banner) and not take up any extra vertical space (ie, just steal some horizontal space from the WoV banner but don't make the thing taller) then I think it would be fine.

I've been to Vegas enough times I am always looking for something new and interesting to do. The coupon books are loaded with discount coupons, so I am wondering if a handful of those attractions would be willing to offer a nice discount AND a fee to the Wiz for people who use a "code" when they pay for an attraction.

It would need to be a "win" - "win" situation, of course.

Suggestion:

- Get a go-getter business student from UNLV to look into this. Arm them with the stats for the site, # of visitors, etc, etc.

ALSO, there seems like there is so much competition these days, would any locals type casino be willing to offer something to WoV members ? It would certainly drive some visitors to them, right ?

I just purchased a $100 gift card through the link at the bottom. This will cover some shopping I'll be doing this weekend and should get a 6% commission instead of possibly a lesser amount in certain categories.

Some people have there zoom set to 125% or higher. Mine is at 125% that makes the banner disappear out of my view. unless I keep scrolling further then needed to navigate to the next page. I almost never see anything at the bottom of the page unless I purposely scroll down that far, this rarely happens. Out of site out of mind. Last thing I see is Facebook, You Tube and Twitter just above that banner.

Agree about moving the banner. I didn't see it until now. And if you're getting 4%-6% on most purchases (I'm shocked by that number), location will definitely help. I don't spend too much on Amazon, but I will definitely click on your link in the future when I do. In the past, I just went to amazon.com directly and no one got squat, except amazon/the seller.

Moving the banner to the top is on my "to do" list. It isn't as easy as it sounds. However, I think it is pretty obvious that you're supposed to click the Amazon logo. With Internet marketing these days, nobody cares about views and clicks anymore, it is all about a profit generated by the person clicking.

The top is no good. The only time we see that is when going to a new page. Normal surfing brings us directly to the latest post, ignoring the top of page.

Stick it in that white area between the RSS feed link and the page number / jump to links. That's a spot we always see.

People just don't like change especially once you get used to something. I like it way better, I used to never visit before, I didn't like it, It was not pleasing to the eye. Now I do visit more often(I will even be making a deposit in the new casino). It seems sleek and more organized to me, also easier to navigate.

I think NEW people will like it as well. From my understanding, NEW people are the ones that pay the bills. I doubt long time returning people have very little value.

Question 1.
Does the percentage work if we are buying on a foreign Amazon site?

Question 2.
It seems you have "delegate" sites in Mexico and in Germany. Or they are at the least using some of your (translated) stuff. What are the conditions? I assume you get a royalty fee for intellectual property?
(Nothing concrete at all, yet, but I have been thinking about asking you the permission to publish French translations of your stuff...)

I was over at Diversity Tomorrow site.
A great discussion going discussing books Great books nobody has ever heard of.
I decided to checkout some of the recommendations on Amazon. I scroll to to the bottom, no Amazon link.
One poster mentioned loading up his kindle with the recommendations.
Cmon Wiz, could be missing out on some posible business over there.
I know its slow over there, but not that slow. Its actually been picking up lately. Trying to do my part :-)

I have a nice flashy advertisement from dafabet on my screen that is bothering me because they are advertised by 3 football players on their advert. The foreground player in the middle is called Jermaine Defoe and he has played for Bournemouth AFC since the 1st of July 2017. The problem is he is wearing a Sunderland AFC shirt with the dafabet logo on the front. dafabet are no longer sponsors of Sunderland and obviously jermaine Defoe hasn't worn that shirt since June 2017.

Just seems strange dafabet haven't updated their advertisement logo/picture in over 18 months.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place I'm new.

Cheers, Lemon.

LOL. Quite common in the mad world of internet advertising. A company I once worked for commissioned photos of all employees for a 'meet the team' web page. Problem was they had high staff turnover and never updated the page for 5 years. I think I'm still up there, from when I had hair $:o)
Psalm 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. Proverbs 18:2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion.
