Amazon has now opened its Kindle platform to bloggers, allowing them to submit/publish their blog to the network for subscription. Now you can make money from Amazon once people subscribe to your blog via the Kindle.
You will get paid 30% of the monthly blog subscription price for every subscriber to your blog. As for pricing of the subscription fee, Amazon will be the one putting a fair value for it.
There’s a catch though — even if you publish your blog on Kindle, payment options only allow EFT and check to a US address. Nevertheless, it would be good to have this additional distribution channel even without the payback.

From Kindle Help page:
“I don’t live in the United States, can I make my blog available for Kindle?
Yes. If you have a US bank account and tax id you can get paid via Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). Otherwise please select the check option as a payment method.”
Emphasis mine.
Yeah, saw that part but when you sign up and pick the payment method, it says “Check to a US address ($8 fee)”.
I just published two of my sites to Kindle. We’ll see how it goes!
how much kaya subs? why not free subscription?
Minimum daw is $0.99. Walang free subs e.
Signed up our site too and to be frank, I do not expect anyone to pay to view my blog! hehe I guess the publicity it might bring is good enough for me!
by the way, I think they should include Western Union Money Transfer like what Google Adsense did – very convenient IMO.
but if it is still via check, what I;m thinking is send the check to Johnny Air and have it shipped here! Question is, how much would that cost? It would take lots of money just to break even right?
The only blogs people will pay to read even though they can read it for free online are the top tier blogs. This is going to be irrelevant for most.
To test it, I already added my blog but it’s not yet approve.
