Yes.

I make about £3k per month off a site that I set up for my own amusement and time-wasting. 6 million page views per month, I'm only signed up to 4 affiliate schemes. Amazon pay the worst of all of them, that's true.

It's a side project, but for something that I only do out of love £3k per month is quite tidy.

Edit: I guess what I'm saying is that you could take skimlinks and knock them for six, and people would have a real benefit and reason to use embedly whereas skimlinks milk far too much and it's not even got a user benefit.

PS: Are you hiring remote workers? I know how to make this work ;)
