I've made about $19 in November.

I couldn't figure out where it came from, it showed up in my amazon affiliate section.
I have several times used amazon affiliation links when I mention books or other things that someone could buy from Amazon, but I've only ever used one tracking id.

As it turns out, I'm pretty sure the money came from a site I set up a while ago and forgot about accidentally-on-purpose. I sunk about 16 -20 hours of development into, and rather than chase my tail and not make any money on it I told myself to hold off until it saw some profit.

When I did the development on it I didn't know about changing my referral code in amazon. Now tracking the hits from that site is going to be easier, but the traffic seems to have dropped off again.

ps. oh and the income was all from one specific brand of laser toner. I got hits for 10 sales of laser toner. Go figure. I've never hawked laser toner on a blogsite, so I had no clue where it came from.
