Can my free give away have affiliate links in it?

That probably sounds bad but my give away is a gift buying guide for kids, so I'm recommending certain toys. I figured if I'm naming what they are, couldn't I use my Amazon affiliate for that? My website is a blog and products for kids birthday parties.

    Hey,

    Yes you can put affiliate links in your free give aways. I would say that as long as you give your readers a ton of value about whatever it is that you are promoting, you should be just fine.

    From my standpoint, if I received a free give away or ebook from someone and I saw TONS of value in a program that they recommended for me, I would be happy to give them credit if I were to sign up for it.

    Hope this helps!

    Yes there is nothing wrong with adding affiliate links in a free report.

    As mentioned above you should first add value and then maybe add recommendations at the bottom of the report. If people have enoyed the report then they will automatically listen to what you recommend.

    Of course. You SHOULD put affiliate links to ANYTHING that is listed or linked to in your guide. Put an appropriate disclosure in your guide - right up front in the beginning, or at the end. But by all means, make every external link an affiliate link, where possible. There is absolutely nothing wrong with doing that, and everything right with doing that. Just do it.

    Yes, certainly (as long as you're compliant with Amazon's terms of service, and FTC-compliant regarding the affiliate disclosure, and so on, of course ).
