Trust Plugin affiliate link generators?
I have been all over online finding out how to put Amazon and eBay links on my page.
VigLink just popped up as an option after I signed as a crucial.com affiliate.
I thought it was necessary for any link to have this plugin. The plugin uses cookies for 24 hours after the people click on it, so if they go to the site later to buy you still get credit. At least, that is how I think it works.
I finally got done posting my content. I noticed that this little plugin adds a ton of links wherever it chooses and sometimes to stuff that makes sense, but not as much sense as if I were to put the links in.
I extremely dislike what it is doing. I do not know if I should keep it or if I should delete it.
Should I try and see if it brings sales or should I delete it?
I think it will bring the trust of my site down. I was only going to use about 4 or 5 links that would actually bring me a commission but this thing added 9 more links.

Hi Drez,
I don't recommend it!
Your otherwise clean and useful content will be instantly transformed into an artificial link-farm.
And trust me, the search engines will penalize you for that ...

thank you
I just fixed it and it feels so clean and professional. I am happy to get rid of it.
