I have always stayed in the adult space so the Amazon news doesn't affect me. But I love this post as an example of smart entrepreneurial thinking.

The one practical flaw (perhaps) at the core of it is the assumption that "better" affiliate links can routinely be found. I freely admit I know nothing about affiliate conditions outside adult but every time I've looked at a non-adult program, it was too stingy or shady to seem attractive. It may be that honest programs with better deals than Amazon do not exist for many products. Or that the effort required to find them makes this a dauntingly-large project.

Here in the adult space, I've been looking for a decent general sex toy program for months (the one I use is foundering on the back end) and not really finding anything. Good ones -- usually manufacturers or small brands or otherwise narrowly specialized -- have tiny inventories with small SKUs, and broad sellers with many SKUs are all shady or low-paying. I know there's probably something, but decades of sex toy SEO have keyword-poisoned the search space so badly I apparently can't find it, LOL.
