Using Amazon Web Services for Associates
There are several amazon web services
that you can use to link your web site to amazon and
earn commission. Some of them are very profitable
and some of them will probably not earn you a penny.
The classic mistake that many new associates
make is putting Amazons banner ads on their web site
and hoping that visitors will click on these banners
arrive at a random amazon page and purchase something.
Banners are the least time consuming way of linking
to amazon but are unlikely to earn you any money at
all.
It is much more profitable in the long
run to spend five or ten minutes setting up a good
quality link that will continue to earn you money
for years to come.
In my experience the best way to link
to amazon is to directly recommend or review a product
and to direct your visitors directly to that product
page on amazon. This type of link results in high
conversion rates because it helps the customer by
telling them what they want to know about a product
and links them directly to an easy way to purchase
it.
Take a look at this example:

Finished Doll House
|
This house has lots of decorative detail throughout
the interior and exterior. The outside of the
house is papered in a beautiful pink colour
with a checkerboard roof that is covered with
real wooden tiles. The inside of the house is
decorated with a tasteful blend of pastels &
bright hues precisely painted--dainty flowers,
graceful stripes, ceramic-looking tiles & wooden
floors, and two staircases of beautiful mahogany.
This house is extremely good value for money
and you can also add lighting to the package.

This simple link will take you about
five minutes to put together. It uses the 'link to
any page' on Amazon web services option in the associates
center where you can paste the url of the exact page
you want your customer to visit. This review and link
has a conversion rate of over 5% conversion rate during
my web sites busy period. That means 5 out of every
100 people purchase this or another product on Amazon
which is extremely high by Internet standards.
I highly recommend integrating links
like this throughout your web site to earn the highest
commissions from Amazon.
