    People might complaint to Amazon that you are spamming your affiliate link, and you might get suspended from your Amazon Affiliate program!!

    Why would you risk getting booted for spamming? Nobody likes spammy links... and they rarely get clicked.

    If you want to practice marketing Amazon products, start creating Squidoo pages. Better yet, create a niche blog or site. Look at member freshdevelopment's signature. He's creating a product to do it the right way.

    Don't take the risk. If you can post links in the forum then point the link to your blog where you can finally point to Amazon. This way you are not risking being suspended by Amazon.

    Good luck

    Your site looks like crap and you're spamming the forum. You get hits by doing exactly what people in this post are saying you shouldn't do. I suggest you send the owner of Digital Point a PayPal for $150 for the free advertising you're trying to get on his back.

    The better the quality of your hubs, the better they will be rated. You can also try a review-style blog at blogspot.com, but remember that only quality will win (and make you money) in the long run. Resist the temptation of just throwing up some spammy content and expect to make money from this. Another thing to remember is that the Amazon cookie lasts only for 24h, means you have to catch the buyer just before they are ready to buy. What works well for me on hubpages are review-style hubs about a product I know something about, hope that helps, SY

    As people here said, should make your blog or site, put your aff link then do SEO. It will make your money (except fall in sandbox) :)

    This is very good advice and highlights the biggest problem I see on the forums with people wanting to make money - quality. You should always be creating good quality content and never take shortcuts.
