I have joined amazon through hubpages for my hubs. I now want to place amazon ads on blogspot. My amazon affiliate ID has hubacct and 6 numbers after that. Do I use just the 6 no's or do I have to apply for another number? Your assistance will be appreciated.
I use the same account. But I did create a different tracking ID so that I could track sales.
Does that mean you are giving them a 40% spilt; or does that split happen on the account level at HP?
HP don't do anything to your Amazon ID. They just display it 60 per cent of the time on your pages here when you use Amazon ads. If you use the ID elsewhere, HP are not involved at all.
Do they? I've wondered about that - when HP collects the earnings, at 8.5% no less, how is it MY tracking number being picked up by Amazon?
My Amazon capsules are producing either a hubpagesxxx-20% or hubpages-20%. Neither is my tracking number from Amazon - that one never shows up.
I do not use the HP sharing 8.5% thing (not sure what it's called). For that I'm guessing they have a system that generates a unique tracking ID for every account so they know what sales are going through and there's an automated system that gives you a share of the cut.
Amazon does allow big publishers to have more than a 100 tracking ID's.
I think they have to be doing something along those lines. Whereupon the original question concerning our personal Amazon code on outside has nothing to do with the use of HP programs.

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...

When I check out my affiliate id under the earnings-settings tab I see an affiliate id that I can't find in my associate account via the amazon webpage the one which shows up is completely different. Therefore I'm unable to receive any earnings correct? Or is this unrelated and it's actually Hub...

I recently opened a second HP account and, following directions from HP, signed it up for Amazon. Eventually I made one sale (for $100, darnit!) and found that it was credited to a totally separate Amazon account which will mean that the total sales will not be added together to determine the...

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've been steadily earning money through Amazon for the first time this year. It's nothing major, but I would still like to get paid. On my account it shows the Amazon earnings under the hubpages account, however I'm not being paid through hubpages for my Amazon earnings. When I log onto my Amazon...
