A Look at the New Amazon Associates Link Builder for WordPress


There are a good number of plugins supporting Amazon Associates Program. Some of these plugins are available for free in WordPress Plugin Directory, others are distributed under a commercial license. In this post we will dive deep into the official Amazon Associates Link Builder plugin, released just few weeks ago, and currently in beta version. Amazon Associates Link Builder
The Amazon Associates Link Builder plugin is a new option for WordPress users. Released just few weeks ago (December 2016), the plugin provides an easy to use shortcode that enables affiliates to include advertising units into post content in different formats.
At the time of writing, Amazon Associates Link Builder (v. 1.3) works only with WordPress table prefixes of ‘wp_’. This is a known issue and should be solved in the near future. If your WordPress database uses the default prefix you can safely ignore this.
The plugin adds to the WordPress content editor a search box to search items in Amazon Product Directory.
