I will start a Wordpress blog , but according to where my readers are living I want to refer them to Amazon.com .ca .uk and others , which have different affiliate id's ... So I want to do some geo-targeting .
And eventually I want to do this for other affiliate accounts besides Amazon .
Can this be solved by a plugin or is there another solution ? This issue is quite important for me , anyone who could help : thanks a lot from a starter !!

    make sure that you are an affiliate with all the Amazon (.com,.ca...) and have a bank account for each country to get your commission money.

      Dear ,
      that is not the problem , but how to link like UK customers to the UK site , and the US customers to the US site ? So that the customer doesn't see , I can make different links but I think it is confusing and messy for the customer ! I want to make it easy , I notice there is a plugin "WP AD GURU" or "WP INSERT" but I am not sure about the possibilities

      Thanks for your reply anyway !

      Thanks , I am from Belgium which has no local Amazon store , can I chose a default Amazon store , or even 2 defaults ? Like for Europe I would prefer Amazon.uk and for other countries I would chose Amazon.com

      On the other hand for Japan I would like to refer to a non Amazon store , is this possible or with other plugins ? Like WP AD GURU ? I will contact the author for this last question .

      For eBay I found The Word Bay - home of the Wordbay Wordpress eBay plugin

      This Amazon Affiliate Link Localizer on your site is pointing to Amazon.com when I am reading it from Belgium , sorry but the European sites co.uk .de and .fr are better options . Means I need to search further on .

        Hey guys,

        If you want to sell across all of the Amazon Associates platforms, then this site is a must:

        Free GeoIP Targeting Service for creating global Amazon Links

        It will allow you to set up a GEO redirect based on the visitors location, so that they are sent to the nearest Amazon site to them.

        You will still need to sign up to all of the various Associates Programs, but that is a one-time process.

        Then find the product you want to promote and away you go, enter the details in the site above and copy the link it provides.

        The great thing is, there's nothing to install on your site and it just works.

        Cheers,

        Paul

          Yes thanks Paul , in the meantime I discovered Georiot , but I guess only need to sign up to just 1 Amazon site and they do the rest of geo-targeting as far as I understood ??
          Guess it is like that !

          Guy THANKS for your reply !
