Here's What Amazon Wants What They Really, Really Want .
If you're an Amazon Affiliate, besides the general affiliate disclosure you may have on a page on your website/blog, Amazon prefers (although I think the word should be demands) that you have specific languaging for their little disclosure, and that you have it at the footer (bottom) of EVERY page / post you do on your website that contains an Amazon affiliate link.
To be ultra-safe and not have to fear that Amazon WILL CLOSE your account (and they will), it's best to just have this on every page of your website / blog where you have affiliate links, be they Amazon-related, or not.
THIS is what Amazon wants to see (best at the footer/bottom of each of your pages/posts):
“X (put your name here) is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com, endless.com, MYHABIT.com, SmallParts.com, or AmazonWireless.com.”
I certainly do NOT want to be like an acquaintance of mine who had her affiliate account shut down by Amazon because she neglected to do this. Just thought I'd share this piece of info with you all.

You're welcome...and neither was I for a long time. I've been an Amazon affiliate for years (haven't made many bucks, tho) and never knew it...but found out when an acquaintance had had Amazon affiliate account shut down because she didn't have it "properly worded and displayed". You can bet I'M gonna use it, now LOL.

Hmmmm; wonder if there is such a widget???? There probably IS...I'll just have to search for it LOL. Of course you could always go into your "widget" section of your WP site (sidebar), and drag the "text" thingy to either the sidebar or footer - wherever you wanted it - and put this specific disclosure statement there.
