Should I pursue affiliate marketing on my travel blog?

Recently, I just launched my Amazon storefront where I can curate products that I love on Amazon—at the same time, getting myself into affiliate marketing as an Amazon Influencer. Just now, I decided to level up my travel blog with an affiliate marketing program through Amazon. I remember I tried to join as an affiliate but I got rejected. I forgot the reasons. But I was based in the Philippines and I never reached 1k followers on FB and Instagram.

During the pandemic, I never got the chance to update my travel blog since traveling was not allowed. Content creators related to travel actually suffered. Now that traveling is on a roll, it is now my chance to get into the trend.

If you ask me, am I really earning on my travel blog?

And the answer is, YES. But not too much.

I earned through Google Adsense but it took me years to earn at least $100. I think I earned 3 or 4 times with Google Adsense.

I earned with Klook $50, a popular travel activity booking app in which I recommend tours and activities in one of the popular travel guide blog posts I had.

Direct advertising, I earned $100 a year for 2 years when a visa agency from Myanmar asked me to put their link on the sidebar of my blog.

Guest posting for at least $50 when a person asked me if they could write an article related to my blog with their links.

Next year, I need to get busy and get serious with my travel blog: https://www.itravelrox.com/
