		<description>Even worse load it up on a dial up connection without it cached in your browser...ugh! I tried this and it literally took more than a minute to load with just the blank box sitting there and none of the content to read while it loaded.</description>

		<description>[...] Sinds ik me in financieringsmogelijkheden voor weblogs verdiep, heb ik er negen ontdekt, ten dele met dank aan Problogger. Hieronder volgen ze. Hulp om dit overzicht verder aan en in te vullen blijft welkom, want er zitten witte plekken in. Zo had ik graag een indicatie gegeven van de blogverdiensten van prominente Nederlandse bloggers, maar ik heb tot nu toe geen reactie op mijn vragen gekregen. Voor conclusies over de economische potentie van het medium weblog is het, denk ik, nog te vroeg. Er zijn veel onzeker- en onduidelijkheden. Welke ruimte de weblogs zich kunnen toeëigenen, zal afhangen van hun eigen rijpingsproces en van ontwikkelingen in de rest van de mediawereld. Een makkelijke start zal geen enkele blogger maken. De drempel naar het verdienen van wat geld met een weblog ligt al hoog, laat staan naar het volledig leven van blogverdiensten. Je moet zo aanstekelijk en informatief kunnen schrijven dat de lezers er bij duizenden tegelijk op afkomen en andere sites en bloggers het de moeite waard vinden ernaar te linken. Daarnaast moet hij of zij, als het even kan, een Chwe-effect  creëren en, eventueel, het talent hebben om relaties met adverteerders, advertentieservices, marketeers en affiliate programma’s op te bouwen. Dat alles kost een ongehoorde hoeveelheid tijd. Daar staat tegenover dat je als blogger niet dagelijks in de file hoeft te staan en doorgaans schrijft over datgene je passioneert, en dus geld verdient met je hobby. In de praktijk zullen businessplannen voor weblogs overigens vaak niet op een, maar op meerdere geldbronnen tegelijk berusten. [...]</description>

		<description>I&#039;m using Firefox 1.5 and I&#039;m also getting a problem with these ads screwing things up.  It&#039;s turning the arrow pointer into a text insertion one.  The ads are also flush with the text next to it, unlike IE (but that might just be a css issue).  There is no way I would use these ads if they are affecting the users browsing experience.</description>

		<description>The 85/15 split seemed to worded odd (especially when compared to the 50% split referenced right afterwards... At first I didn&#039;t know if it meant that for each click that resulted in a sale, the commission was split... or if that if there were 100 products to choose from then 15 would be linked through MotionMall and the other 85 through.

I checked out the MotionMall site and it appears that it is the latter scenario (i.e. 100 choices, 85 you get, 15 they get).

So it would seem that the odds are in your favor.  But being a cynic I would wonder how the 85/15 split is divided... completely random or are the 15 most popular choices per category earmarked for MotionMall?

Of course, click through a couple more pages on MotionMall and they confirm that it&#039;s a random assignment.

Sounds better.  But worth understanding that it&#039;s not a true 85/15 split of every click and sale.</description>

		<description>Another negative......I&#039;m running Firefox and it seems to change my cursor to a little &quot;target&quot; on the WHOLE page. I DO NOT like that at all.

		<description>Darren - As you said, it&#039;s really slow to load :)

Amazon offers a lot of different linking methods, so I can&#039;t see an immediate advantage to this one, as I could just as easily create an ad block based on a search phrase or whatever.

If you&#039;re using Wordpress there is already a very nice plugin that lets you choose the type of link you put in your blog entry body:
http://manalang.com/wp-amazon

With regard to tracking the links they&#039;re probably using some form of XML to pull them in, so you *might* be able to see something in the reports, but as you say, it&#039;s not going to be easy to follow them
