An Associate of Amazon.co.jp has created a cool application with the help of Amazon E-Commerce Services (ECS) which we would like present to you. This innovative Associates application enables any Amazon Associate to display suitable Amazon.co.uk (or Amazon.com, Amazon.fr, etc) products on YouTube videos. The process takes just a few minutes and absolutely no programming knowledge is required.
Please see below an example. On top of the video from the band Funker Vogt you find relevant Amazon.co.uk product placements.
How can you use this application as well and earn money with it?
Quite simple. Read on to find out how you can display Amazon products using your own private videos in just a matter of minutes and without any programming knowledge and can earn money for clicks on each product as part of the Amazon.co.uk Associates programme:
Step 1:
Download this Amazon ECS-based Associate application from the following link: http://www.got2do.com/lab/U2Bads.htm
Step 2:
Simply complete the form with the following information:
- Enter the ID for your YouTube film in the Video ID field (you can find the ID in the video URL, the sample film has the URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py5ZaHdxGQo and so has the video ID: py5ZaHdxGQo)
- Enter your Amazon.co.uk Associate ID in the Affiliate ID field
- Select the UK flag (for the Amazon.co.uk Associate Programme)
- Under Category, select the product categories of Amazon.co.uk products that are to be shown (in the example this is pop music)
Step 3:
Now simply copy the HTML code shown on the screen to your website. That’s it! Suitable products will automatically be displayed on top of your video.
Please note: The matching quality of the products shown depends on the tags that you have assigned to your video in YouTube.
We look forward to hearing about more innovative Associate applications using Amazon E-Commerce Services (ECS) soon! Find out more about ECS here.
