Thread: iHerb.com - Better than Adsense & Amazon?

I've tried the search tool, but couldn't find any threads about iHerb?

I use both Amazon Associates, and Adsense, but none of them have come close to the iHerb. I also order from iHerb regularly, and I would suggest it to my friends and family, even if I wouldn't get anything out of it. Anyways...you probably want to hear more about this program:

According to iHerb website here is the estimated income:

"Recent data analysis, conducted in October 2011, found that iHerb customers referring 3 or more people over a year ago earned an average of $240.00. And the figure for customers referring 10 or more people was $640.00. "

How much income you get from sales:

Level 1 - 4% (those who used your code)
Level 2 - 3% (when lvls above share their code, and so on...)
Level 3 - 2%
Level 4 - 1%

You should get 10 referrals pretty easily from your family, and friends. I only got under 100 Facebook friends, and got few of them hooked up easily. Now they shop regularly.

Sorry about the affiliate info. I thought it was OK. I stand corrected.

edit: as for previous post. You need to make your first order to get your own code that you can share with your family, friends, web..

I'm talking to myself here, but best just got better:

"April 2012 - We are pleased to announce a brand new feature at iHerb. Now you can have your own unique iHerb page, where all of your reviews, along with your outside social media pages, are conveniently combined in one place."

Pretty much the same as Amazon's reviews, but the only difference is that you can actually earn from your reviews.

I'm getting new sales everyday. I don't even have to do anything these days.

I think earning from AdSense and Amazon is lot easier than from this. You don't need to order anything to earn money. Also Those programs works with lot more niches and products.

I think its good for health / medical web site owners but this " need to order to get the code " part can be a big turn off.

Learningseo, Maybe you can tell us more about your experiences and earning with iHerb and also promotional methods ?

I don't own a single health or medical blog. I use the coupon code on various web forums, sharing on Facebook/Twitter.... I have never cared about niches. Why should I? I just make it fitting to all of my websites/blogs. I have referrals from 12 different countries. I doubt I have sold anything to countries like China, Korea or Croatia before...Now I have...many times.

I only need to "sell" the product once and forget it. Then I just wait that the referral buy more products, and pass his/her code to her/his friends -> and they pass they're code to their friends -> and so on... They are doing to work for me.

With Amazon you need to sell products all over again to same the customers, and make sure they are using your referral links. It's a lot of work.... To me Adsense, Amazon, Linkshare etc. is just a nice bonus. Setting up clickbank isn't free either, and I rather sell products I use daily myself.
