14. Not adding affiliate disclosure and privacy policy.
I have also seen a lot of websites that do not have this information on their website. If your website has a footer, then you can add a text widget within any of the multiple footers of the website.
Call the heading: "Affiliate Disclosure" and put the following text in:
"We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites".
You can also head over to and go to section 5 for the source of the disclaimer: https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/help/operatin...
The privacy policy template can also be found within WA's training.

I found out this week my Amazon Affiliate links were broken, no wonder I had no sales. Please check your affiliate links to make sure they actually work now if you are having no Amazon Sales.
I blogged about it on my blog.
