OK so ive signed up for the ad program and everything went smoothly. But, google and amazon have banners where I would have to copy them to hub in order to display. Do I need those banners? And exactly how am i supposed to do that?
I get that you setup everything smoothly, but your "BUT" doesn't make sense. You have nothing to do with where Google places it's ads, except for the Big Block Ad that is in your hub.

I like to add in-text links when I'm talking about certain products as I not only think they are some of the most effective, but also some of the most helpful. What I don't understand is why there is a limit of 2 in-text amazon links whereas we can make a slew of Amazon links using the Amazon...

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've been advertising Amazon since I started and just made $1.60. Is anyone really having much luck with this? I'm wondering if I should kill Amazon all together to make more room for Google Ads. What do you think?
