Amazon Axes its NC Affiliates!

This sucks because I had just really started this effort and now my home state has screwed me by levying taxes on click through payments. So Amazon has cut its ties with all of its North Carolina affiliates as a response.

I was really hoping to turn this into some sort of respectable side income, but it is not to be I guess. I don't know if all affiliate programs will dissolve in NC because of this or not. I would think so, but I have yet to apply for any others so I can't really say.

I just wish my state would rethink this stupid policy.

  1. Interesting about Amazon cutting it's NC affiliates. But there is no way any government entity is going to give up a potential tax revenue source. You should try the other big name affiliate programs: Google Adsense, Yahoo, MSN (now BING), ClickBank, Commission Junction, and more.
    Good Luck!
