I have heard conflicting answers on this subject. Does anyone know the actual answer? Can hubpages be profitable using amazon affiliate links if it is indeed allowed?
Yes, Hubpages allows Amazon affiliate links. Check out step by step instructions on setting up your affiliate link and Affiliate settings to manage your affiliate ID.
Thanks for the nice tutorial, Nihangshah. I heard hub pages have effected pretty badly after Google panda update.
All you need to do is enter your affiliate ID into hub pages and they provide handy capsules for you to place many different Amazon products onto your hub at once. Hub Pages will split almost half of your Amazon earnings, however just like they do with Google Adsense and other affiliate networks in which you provide Hub Pages your affiliate ID. So if someone clicks a link to an Amazon product on your hub page, there is about a 40% chance that Hub Pages will get the commission for it - not you. I strongly believe that hub pages is much better for getting traffic to your website , blog, or whatever rather than making money off of Amazon, Google Adsense, etc.
