Apart from a few niches which can be alternatively monetized, most of the other Amazon affiliate sites' earning would be cut to 50-60%!
It is a no brainer now that you should not build new sites solely based on Amazon but what to do with the existing website/s?
I think even if after 50% reduction,ROI is still good enough for at least continuing the existing site's growth?
Typical medium size Amazon site takes around 300-400 articles and 200-300 guest posts/niche edits/links to get to around $10-30k/mo. Now it will be $5k-15k/month
300 articles ~ $15k-25k
250 Links ~$25k
So $40k-50K investment for a shot at $5k-$15k+/mo and $150k-$400k valuation
------------
Risk
Amazon might close the affiliate program altogether or reduce it to 1%.
-----------------
Opportunity Cost
There is always a better niche that can be found etc. But Amazon projects are very easy to run/outsource/find a niche.
Right now fresh $50k investment may not make sense. But if you are already down $20k, how does the equation change?
Please feel free to add what are you thinking? Especially, guys who are in a similar situation.
