Question about Amazon

sunken · 04-04-2005, 11:06 PM

Do you have to use their links that they make up, or can you grab their picture of the item and make your own link? I just want to put a couple relevant items up, but I can never get them to look good in the IFRAME on the site (and plus if I could use this method, I could find more tight corners to stick them in.

Have you asked in their support forums?

They say you get a bigger % if you use direct links but I have yet to figure out what a direct link is. Sure i looked at the page that helps you make links but to me its confusing..

Actually I found out what I wanted to know. I didn't realize they had a smaller link with just the image if you play around with the individual link settings.

A direct link is a link that goes right to a single product page and the person adds that product to their cart without clicking anywhere else. At least that's been my experience.

On their link creation page, the individual product links are the ones that are direct links...
