The Amazon Associates Central also known as “Amazon affiliate program” is a simple way to monetize your blog or website. Just register an account, get approved immediately, and have Amazon codes placed on your website the same day.

When a visitor is sent to Amazon through one of your links, and that leads to a sale, you’ll receive a commission – That’s all.

But how do you become an Amazon associate? In this tutorial, you’ll receive a detailed guide (with images) to getting started with the Amazon Associates. Are you on the lookout for a small business side hustle, longing to become an entrepreneur, or perhaps just starting a business of your own? Hopefully, you’ll find this guide a helpful one to get started.

What is Amazon Associates Network?

The Amazon Associates Network is purely an affiliate marketing network. It’s free to join & become Amazon associates for bloggers and site owners from any location in the world. You simply promote products listed on Amazon.com through your website or blog by generating links. When visitors click through the links and purchase an item from Amazon, you receive a referral commission.

How to Become an Amazon Associate

  1. Set up a blog or website.
  2. Log on to the Amazon Affiliate page.
  3. Set up your Amazon Affiliate profile.
  4. Generate your Amazon Affiliate links.

Thanks for dropping by, Barry! Glad you found it awesome and helpful! Amazon has a great commission plan for its affiliates and the program is accessible to affiliates from all walks of life. It operates on a 24-hour cookie system - meaning that once a customer you refer to Amazon doesn't buy an item within a 24-hour period, you won't earn a commission. Thanks for leaving a thought!

Thanks for the easy to follow training, Israel. I steered clear of Amazon to date, but will perhaps look into it now, Alan

Hey Alan, nice seeing you around! Kudos to you for leaving a thought! Glad you read this training piece and found it helpful! Yes, Amazon is worth trying for its revenue potential. Though, like eBay, it operates a 24-cookie system, if a referral does or doesn't buy the item you linked him to from your blog, YouTube channel, or website, but he eventually buys 15 other products before the 24-hour period expires, you'll earn commissions on all of the 15 other products he purchased. Thanks for leaving a thought, my friend!

Hey Emielia, thanks for dropping by and kudos to you for reading this training piece! Glad you found it helpful! While there are hundreds of thousands of awesome affiliate programs in the industry, Amazon has some unique feature in the sense that you can still earn commissions for sending visitors to shop at Amazon stores even on other products aside from the one through which you sent them to Amazon. You'll earn commissions on all of the products that they buy at stores other than the one you linked them to. Thanks for leaving a thought! See you succeed soonest!
