In your case, maybe since your site is geared toward foreigners in Japan (more than people interested in Japan) there is not as much interest in products like Japanese snacks, etc. People living in Japan can pick those up at the convenience store.

I think those products sell well for sites with a lot of visitors located outside of Japan. But I’m no expert on that.

I think it's working well for our affiliates. Certainly we get a ton of people defecting from other programs, both anime related and product related. Very transparent, and we host all our own graphics so there's not even any bandwidth cost to you.</p> Thanks for including the J-List affiliate system. I think it’s working well for our affiliates.

The only thing that has made me any money (and not too much of it) is Google Adsense. I have jlist links up but I haven't made any sales.</p> My blog is still new, so I don’t know if I can add anything of value here.

The first was terrible for Japan-related stuff, and the second wasn't much better. I made some money through both, but had to scrap them to abide by Google's new policies on "paid links".</p> I’ve tried PayPerPost and TextLinkAds.
