Is there a way to set up a Tracking ID on amazon for Hubpages? I also use amazon for my blog and I have a separate tracking ID for that. However, I am also seeing some sales to my main Tracking ID which I am currently not using for any other site. I believe those are sales from Hubpages, but I am not sure.
I did try setting up a tracking ID for Hubpages, but I don't think it worked.
You have to change the Amazon ID on your affiliate settings, so that it gets placed in your code
Oh, I thought the tracking ID on my Hubpages affiliate settings had to be the main ID for my account. I will see if that works. Thanks!
@thranax, I like to separate the sales out so I know how much each of my sites is earning for me.
fyi...the good news is that I sold two dog shaped cookie cutters. I believe from my Puppy Party hub. The bad new is that they only cost 95 cents each. So, I made a whopping 8 cent commission! LOL! Hey, it's a start.
True, it is nice to see how each is preforming. And lucky you your even getting an amazon sale T_T!

hey don't spend it all at once LOL but it is nice however big it is shows somthing is working just keep feeding it.
Keep patience . You may be lucky enough to earn dollars.

How much time takes after applying amazon code to show amazon adds on hub? I have just applied but there are no any changes
You Must Add Amazon Capsules to your Hub-They Do not get Added Automatically, you must do it yourself!

I have been trying to track this down for the last few weeks. Many of my Amazon Ads are using "hubpages-20" as the Amazon ID Tracking code. (My Tracking code is "chef...-20") This all started when HP switched to the new Amazon module. A few things I noticed.1) On some pages it...

We are being encouraged to use in-text links to Amazon rather than capsules, but it seems that some Hubbers are misunderstanding how to do that.It seems that some Hubbers think they can simply paste the straight URL of their chosen Amazon product into the URL box and it will become an affiliate...

Ok, so today I noticed that for the past several months, since I've been at HubPages, my amazon affiliates ID was wrong... I somehow managed a "!" at the end of my ID. But, I could have sworn that it was there when I copied it from Amazon Affiliates site to here. But, now I see the ID...

I'm a bit behind the ball having been absent for a bit and my Amazon earnings have gone way down as a result, so I'm considering switching to the HP Amazon Program and am wondering if in fact most Hubbers are earning more from the HubPages Amazon Program, as it states. I believe when this came out...

I have 20 clicks just yesterday from an article about Amazon Prime Day and have at least 3 confirmed sales from my ads from people who followed from facebook and it is showing as zero earnings and no longer pending for the day. Has anyone else had this issue?
by Glenn Stok 3 years ago
Amazon used to account for half my earnings on HubPages with sales happening every day. Now for the past five days (July 28 – Aug 1) I had zero sales. I’m still getting Google traffic to my articles that have Amazon capsules and Amazon text links. So I’m wondering what changed. Hopefully the HP...
