I'm not really sure if I'm doing this correctly. The links I'm using now to simply link to an Amazon product look like this: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000WEQL02/ps0f-20 Will my sales be recorded if I use my links that way?
yep that is a way i used in the past, but the recommended way by amazon now is www.amazon.com/dp/ASIN_HERE/?tag=YourID Code (markup): Replace ASIN_HERE with the ASIN of the item, and of course YourID with your Associate ID.
I prefer this method http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000------/trck-20 because some people might bookmark the page and visit a few days later and you still get paid commision unlike the other method where the cookie only lasts 24 hours
