Help with Amazon Associate Account & Books on My Blog
-
Help! I want to use my Amazon Associates account and add books that I recommend to my page (including my own gardening book) but I can’t figure out how to do it. Does Amazon have a plug in? Does WordPress? Sorry to be such an idiot but I can’t even make the Amazon Associate link with an image of the books work in a post! Help me if you can, please?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello there,
The Amazon widget code will not work on a WordPress.COM hosted blog.
We allow affiliate links on WordPress.com, including from Amazon.com, but you will not be able to use the Amazon widget on a WordPress.com site. From https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/amazon-widget-9?replies=3#post-1882814
Posting of some affiliate links is possible, provided the blog is an actual blog and not just a storefront. Please read > http://en.support.wordpress.com/affiliate-links/ closely.
WordPress.com allows bloggers to insert text affiliate links within post and page content to most third-party affiliate programs, provided they are not the primary content of the site in question.
Image affiliate links in posts and pages and any banners, affiliate links in sidebar or footer widget areas, are still considered to be advertising and are not allowed on WordPress.com blogs.
