As an Amazon affiliate can I use the product images off of Amazon.com?
Where do I find the picture URL? Can I legally use its promotional images?
Of course, you can use the pictures. Affiliates have been using Amazon pictures for long and they have not complained.
You can use the Amazon product images without any issues. But if you are using Amazon capsules the images will appear after you input the asin numbers.
I've been using pictures from Amazon and so far there are now issues.
Yes, you can use the product images of the Amazon product that you're promoting in your hub. You can see those images in the Amazon product page where you can even see a larger size of the image and some products have a lot of other images. But I'm not sure if you can use the customer images though.
By "picture URL", do you mean showing the Amazon product itself? In HubPages, you just use an Amazon capsule where you can add Amazon products either by keyword or by putting the Amazon URL or ASIN or ISBN.
If you want to do it by keyword, just type in a keyword at the Amazon capsule. Otherwise, you can search for products at Amazon.com and then copy and paste the URL of the product in the Amazon capsule in your hub. You can also opt to copy and paste the product's ASIN or ISBN instead. You can find that number further down the page of the Amazon product in question.
After you put the Amazon products in the Amazon capsule, you'll see an image of the item, its price and its name. If you added those products by URL, ASIN or ISBN, you can also add your own description of the item.
I want to use the pictures plus the capsule. When I write about the widget, I want to show the picture, and then use the amazon capsule. It sounds like, based on your comment, this is OK.

Hi all. I have set up Amazon Affiliate program on hubpages and featured Amazon products on a number of my hubs. Looking at it after a while, the link-type report in the Amazon account shows that no one has clicked on the products so far. I wanted to know whether this actually works, so I clicked on...

I am confused about putting a product on my hub. I can do the product, but if I try to imbed the description, it is HTML. I cannot find an answer at Amazon or in the FAQ here. I am a new associate. Thanks.

For my first hub I asked my mom if it would be alright for me to do a review of her book. She agreed and I wrote one up. I intended to post a link from my hub to her book on amazon, however, upon further reading I read it is generally a good idea to have one or two hubs already posted before I try...

Amazon changed their affiliate program yesterday by cutting the payout for most affiliates by half or more. Has HubPages addressed how these changes will affect content providers here?
