Can I write product reviews and insert my amazon affiliate links in hubpages? And can they be featured?
As long as it's not a blatant advert, and that you talk about your own personal experience in using the item.
You can link directly within the text capsule and the sale will be credited to your HubPages account (60/40 you/HP). I'm not sure what the policy is now regarding personal affiliate codes.
You might be able to use only a maximum of 2 affiliate links (as far as I know), to prevent hubs from looking too spammy. This was the rule a few years back, not sure if it has changed. I still stick to it. I use personal affiliate codes sometimes but no more than 2 per page. You have to set it as "no follow" when you insert the link. I have had no problem with my hubs getting featured this way.
