    It can't be that difficult, post your affiliate link code without your affiliate ID.
  • Im using wordpress

    Yukon: I really dont know how to do it, but in that case do I losing comission? (whitout affilate id) ?

      You can remove the affiliate ID & add it back in when pasting the code on your site. Need all the HTML for the link, not just the aff. ID.

      Assumes it's not a WP plugin or custom theme where your pasting aff. ID into the plugin/theme via WP Admin.
  • Install the 'Thirst Affiliates' plugin.

    Just install the plugin, add a new link in the tool, give it a title (button text) and the destination URL (buy button URL) and click the 'nofollow' field.

    Now when you want to create a new affiliate link, just highlight the text, go to your WYSIWIg editor and select your new link. Thats it. An affiliate link with a no follow tag.

    Checkout the AZON addon. It might be useful for you.

    You can take it a stage further and get the auto-linker add on. This will automatically add the affiliate link and no follow tag to any text you specify when you set up the original link either at random and limit it to a specific number of times per page which you set.

    If you want, you can get another addon that creates an event in Google analytics automatically each time a link is clicked. Quite useful if you want to know what links on any given pages are getting the most clicks.

    Josh, the developer is very helpful and offers terrific support.

    Hope that helps

    I would let a plugin have anything to do with my money.

    That's begging for affiliate ID swapping.

    • Hey Yukon,

      Thats why I cloak them with a redirect. My affiliate code is never in the URL link, just the redirected one.

      all safe...so far!!
  • Is another "easier" way?

    • I don't understand? The plugin does it automatically for you every time you type in a word. What could possibly be easier than that?
  • I am an Amazon affiliate. Do you think that puting 3 links for 3 different products on the one inner page can hurt my rankings ?
  • Do you think that image buy button is more effective buy link ? I mean what gives to you best results (high CTR) withouth harming amazon TOS.

    Thanks
