Can I still earn from amazon if I bought an item from them which I put in my hub?
No. You can't earn from your own Ads of amazon. And TOS of Amazon.com does not allow to click your own ads. Be alert.
Clicking on any add in a hub that is yours does not give you any monetary benefits. Also, Google can cancel your account if you click on the adds placed in your hub. A couple of clicks may be categorized as inadvertent clicks, but several clicks may get you banned by Google. Amazon works the same way.

Some of my hubs, I do include Ebay capsules that are related to my hubs but I had not earn a single cent nor a single click nor any impression from Ebay. Do I need to key in anything in the Ebay capsules like the ID? May I know what went wrong?
