I guess it works in some situations but (IMO) people are smart. A merchant using these types of affiliates and websites can create a monster where your most loyal customers, the ones who would have made a purchase anyway, will start using these services. Your free traffic is converted to paid traffic with little or no incremental revenue.

I hope Amazon, Expedia and Dell start to use them. I’ll never go there again without searching for them on Jellyfish first.

When I went back again, it told me “Your search returned no results”.
