Blogger is integrates with Amazon Associates!

Earlier this year we have simplified the process of monetizing your blog by adding a "monetize" tab on the Blogger application. We started with AdSense, which allows you to add contextual advertising in its pages, most recently added AdSense for feeds to help you generate revenue from the distribution of your blog through RSS and Atom. Today we launched a third option: direct integration with Amazon Associates to search Amazon's product catalog and add links to products that earn commissions when your readers buy the products they recommend.


With this feature, you can search Amazon directly from the Blogger editor and add images and links to Amazon products right in your messages. Your readers will earn commissions each time they buy the products you recommend, and do not already have an Amazon Associates account, you can register for a free without leaving Blogger.


If you've ever written a blog post about a book, recommended a gadget or a toy revised bought for your children, you've probably gone through the process of writing the message, opening a separate window for fetching a site selling the product, then go back to Blogger to paste the link to the product in the post editor.



To begin, click the tab to monetize your blog and click on "Amazon Associates". Walk through the setup wizard and add the form of items once they are finished.


Now the fun part: when you write a post on Blogger, you'll see an Amazon gadget to the right of your post editor (the "Product Search"). You can search the Amazon catalog of products from Blogger - Enter the name of the product you are writing, and add a link to the product, product image, or an iframe that contains the picture, price details and a "purchase now. " Each link that is created contains its unique identifier Associates, ensuring that credit Amazon for any purchases that are derived from readers by clicking the link in your blog.


If you are an existing Amazon Associate, completing these settings, simply makes the products available in Locator Blogger for you - to continue to get the same benchmark rate of Amazon. New associates receive the same benchmark rate of Amazon, they would have received if they signed directly. If you are interested in getting a reference, you can install the form of articles, from the Amazon Associates page to monetize tab, click "I will later - Amazon show more options" and click "Add the "Product Finder.
