If you are participating in the Amazon Associates affiliate program you probably have one of Amazon’s fancy search or product widgets on your website. But if you would like to have a simple direct text link to an Amazon product or to the Amazon start page than you have to use the following format:
- http://www.amazon.com/dp/ASIN/?tag=Associates_ID
