Can You Create Amazon Affiliate Links Outside Amazon

Discussion in 'Amazon' started by TheSyndicate, Jan 27, 2013.

    I outsource my work and I have a number of products that I want to create a Affiliate links to. I have so many that I really do not want to sit and do it myself. I also do not want to let anybody INSIDE my amazon account. Is there another way to let them create affiliate links?

    From what I remember is all you need to do is just edit the URL slightly to include the ID of the product.

    You can get the ID of the product from the URL whenever you visit them in Amazon and then just edit the standard link you are given. I have included an example and where you see XX replace it with the one created by your affiliate link.

    Where you see YY this is the product ID.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/YY/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=XX&creative=XX&creativeASIN=YY&linkCode=XX&tag=XX
    Code (markup):
    If you are using .com then the link may be slightly different but that is the basic idea of it. So all you would need to do is pre-make a URL and then let whomever you outsource the work too include the product URL where it says YY.

    You can try Link Update Script. It automatically changes all Amazon links into affiliate links.
