Amazon Affiliate and Twitter

    I saw a pretty big twitter account posting Amazon affiliate links.

    Does Amazon allow that? And will one get paid? (I am talking about doing this tastefully and infrequently btw.)

    Thx...

    Yes, Amazon allows sharing affiliate links on Twitter and Facebook. Some people set up product specific pages on Facebook and promote them.

    i think Amazon is allow to share their affiliated links in tweets, It is give more sales for our products. We can share our affiliated links in Facebook groups , fan pages, And some times we can see lot of people do Email marketing to grow their Amazon sales. :D

    Yes, you can start your own forum and add some sort of Amazon plugin. Then, post interesting deals on your forums and you'll get commission for every sale.

    Note: forum spamming isn't allowed.

    Amazon allows promotion of their affiliate links on Twitter. If you are their associate be sure to use Twitter button in Site Stripe to share links on Twitter easier and faster. You simply find a product, click on sharing button and your affiliate links is included by default :)

    You are posting affiliate links to amazon and whenever user clicks on them and gets to the product you're promoting, you're counted... It doesn't matter where you post them.

    I think it doesn't matter to share on any forums if it's not against Amazon's rules.

    Where do you post Amazon affiliate links on Linkedin? Do you create new groups and post there?

    I don't create any. I don't know either how traffic from it come to my blog. May be because of social network connection between one to another ;BLOGGER-FB-TWITTER-LINKEDIN.
