Thanks so much for posting this! It really helped me out! I can't use the Amazon affiliate program because we live in Arkansas but the information works well with the ad codes I have :)

Thanks Rod, I've been restricting my Amazon links to products associated with my niche (golf), but am considering adding an Amazon Page to my site menu for an eStore. That would be a great place to utilize this feature.
At the moment, I'm trying to master making the Amazon links (text, text/image, and banners) open in a separate tab. I was able to follow the instructions to make a banner add open in a new tab, but am struggling to break the HTML code to do the same for a text only link.
Amazon FAQ says ... Only a slight modification to the HTML is needed to have a new browser window open when linking to Amazon.com. Simply add target="_blank" to the linking tag.
Do you know what the "linking tag" is in an HTML string?

Adding an e store is not a bad idea. I am so sorry I am unable to assist you with the "linking tag" issue. I would encourage you to post this as a question to the WA community. I am sure there will be folks who have the knowledge will assist you. All the best!
