Please recommend Amazon Associates Plug-In for Wordpress

Hi,

I live in the UK <<< this part is very important..

I have been trying out WooZone Amazon Associates plug-in for wordpress (from aa-team) this is a great plug-in but I have had major problems with importing products. It seems to force products from the US Amazon .com api and when I enter in ASIN's from Amazon .co.uk it really struggles and changes ASIN to a US equivalent product.

So does anyone have a recommendation for a powerful Amazon plug-in similar that will import product from Amazon UK???

Thanks,
Steve

    Have you had a look at EasyAzon mate, I use it for UK/USA products with no issues. It's a Chris Guthrie product.

    You can just use a service like gen.ie which is a link shortner with geolocation. Then you can just put in amazon affiliate links and it'll spit out one that will redirect as appropriate to the visitors location. You just need to make sure you have your AA account registered for each country.

    Thanks guys! Did have a quick look at EasyAzon and the geo links is another idea!

    I may have found a work around in the plug-in I'm using. It's not ideal but might work for this site and I'll use this one as a test to see how it goes and monitor via analytics where sales are coming from. I'm signed up for UK,USA & Canada atm but was really struggling importing products manually. I can use their super duper 'Insane Mode Import' but I'm re-writing all product descriptions manually and want complete control over products down to fine detail, as I want to nail SEO .

    Cheers for your recommendations ,
    Steve

      Better check your Amazon TOS before you do that....to my knowledge a link shortener can get you banned. Could be wrong - but do check before doing it.

        Can I use a link shortening service for my links?

        While you are welcome to use link shortening services, the link checker will not be able to verify that these links are functioning as intended. Please remember that you must clearly state that the link in question will take the user to the Amazon site when clicked and ensure that the site on which you are posting the links includes the required statement to identify yourself as an Associate. You must also be able to provide detailed information about the site(s) on which your links have been posted if we request it.

        We do offer our own link shortening tool that can be used with Product Links. To shorten your links, search for a product from the Associates homepage under "Quickly Add Links" and choose the down arrow next to the item you want to advertise. A message box will appear and you can select "Shorten URL with amzn.to" and copy the short code for your site.

          EasyAzon and AzonAuthority are two very good options you should consider.
