hello everyone my name is Steph Castellon I’m with each day slow vlog and today I want to do a quick tutorial showing you how to insert Amazon affiliate links onto your Wix blog I recently did a few videos one on Amazon affiliate links and why even if you’re just getting started it’s a great way to make money to start making money with your blog and another video on how to create a free Wix blog so if you haven’t watched those yet I’ll link
them down below go ahead and go check those out otherwise this is gonna be short and sweet and I’m going to show you how to put in those links onto your blog so here I am on the Amazon Associates homepage and you can see that you enter either a keyword or a si n slash ISBN we’ll talk about those two in a second and why I actually prefer to use them but right now I’m gonna focus on keyword and we are going to look up this Contego thermos if you’ve
watched my videos before you know that I always always say to only affiliate thing affiliate link things that you own things that you use or things that you would recommend to a friend and I love this continual thermos so we’re gonna look this bad boy up so if I want to enter a keyword what I do is go to contigo thermos okay let’s see what comes up 175 results come up for contigo thermos so I would have to go in and find the contigo thermos that
I specifically want to recommend to my followers this isn’t it this isn’t it this isn’t it so that’s why I don’t love the keyword search because you actually have to do some digging and always look at the reviews know who you’re getting it from the provider all those things but once you find the one that you want you go to get link which I will show you it’s the same way with the asi end so like I said I don’t love entering the keyword but it is
an option that you can do instead of the keyword search I like to use the a si n because it gives you the specific product that you want to recommend to your readers so if I go back here and I’m back on the home page a si end and ISBN are similar except ISBN is for books a si n is for all other products on Amazon it actually stands for Amazon standard identification numbers so it’s just a 10 character identification code so what I like to do is
go to Amazon and find the specific product that you want to link so right here I have my exact white marble 14 ounce travel mug this is the exact thing I want to link if I wanted a link you know this black show color or this blonde would or the blue slate like I could do those instead but I’m going to do my exact one my white marble and you can find the a si n if you go down to product information you’ll see right here that the a si n is provided
and I just highlight that and copy it I go back over to Amazon Associates where I paste it click go and the result is the exact product that I want to link to my followers so that’s why I like to use the Asin because it gives you the specific product that you want to link the one that you’ve looked at the reviews you know who’s sending it you know where it’s coming from and you can say like to readers hey I recommend buying this okay so now we’re
back to where we were with the keyword search so what you do is you go to get link where it brings you to this page where you can see it’s customized and get HTML so you have three options you can use a text and image text only or image only I almost always use text only that’s what I prefer to do so if I go to text only you can play around with this I’m just showing you how to insert links if you go to text only and go to short link this link
right here is specific to you this is your Amazon affiliate link so when people click on this make it purchase within 24 hours you get a small commission this is specific and unique to you so if I copy this and I go over to my blog now so I’m going back now I’m going to Wix to my Wix blog so here’s the example blog that I wrote so what I do is I highlight the text that I want to be linked to so this is where I’m gonna insert my Amazon affiliate
link it’s gonna take my reader to Amazon where they will see my product and hopefully make a purchase I make a small commission so what I do is I highlight it I go to link and I just paste it that’s my unique Amazon affiliate link I also want to make sure that I check these two boxes this one opens the link in a new tab because I want my reader to stay on my blog so when they click on that link I don’t want it to take them too and my blog has
forgotten about I want them to stand my blog so I want to open it in a new tab and then also this other one a little bit more in depth but just go ahead and click it tell Google to ignore this link and nofollow it has to do with that backlinks again just go with it and then click Save and there’s my link I actually change all of my link colors to one of my theme to color so I’m gonna go ahead and change that to pink so there’s my link right there
and then also I’m gonna go ahead and link this photo since it’s the thermos I’m gonna click on link insert click the two boxes again save so when someone clicks on this photo it’s gonna take them Amazon a well through my affiliate link and then always I have a disclaimer any time I have an affiliate link I’m just telling your readers and if they click on that link it’s an affiliate link and I might make a small commission so I include that
disclaimer on there go ahead and click publish and I click on my favorite thermos the post that I just put up here it is there’s my link that’s a link I click on this and it should take my reader to Amazon where they can find the exact product that I linked that’s it that’s all there is to it guys that is how you include an Amazon affiliate link into your Wix blog you can also do this if you use WordPress or any other blog provider but this is
specific to wink so that’s it that’s the tutorial thanks for being here today guys I hope you enjoyed this short and sweet video be sure to subscribe like share with a friend you can find out any information I talked about down below okay I have some links down there and just thanks so much for being here I so appreciate it and we will see you guys in the next video have yourself a beautiful day bye you
