Hi Vicki,

Length of time is not as important as several other factors. It could take a year to get a sale if you are only getting 10 visits a day and only one out of 10 click. Or you could get 1,000 visitors from the wrong kinda traffic and no one will click at all.

Things that could be playing into the equation are the type of product (some convert easier than others), how targeted your traffic is and how many impressions and clicks you've gotten.

Keep in mind too with Amazon the cookie is only 1 day, so if you target computers or high cost items that people tend to shop, compare and think about before buying you have less chance of getting commission. Not sure if that's the issue though.

Tell us the general product category, how you are marketing and how many clicks a month you get and we may be able to give you something more specific to go on. Also if you are comfortable sharing your site you can ask for a site review in that forum and maybe if we see what you are doing we can give you some tips.
