If you want to start earning commissions by recommending products on Amazon, here’s a quick start guide on how to do that really fast.
First of all, you need some sort of website.
When you apply for Amazon’s partner program, you’ll be asked to enter a website. Having a little online brand, no matter how small, will help you get approved by Amazon. In some cases having a Facebook page or social media link can also work, but a website is better.
Once you have a good looking social media profile (like a Facebook page or a Twitter account with some followers) or a website, you can move on to the next step and start your application process.
You can apply for Amazon’s partner program here:

Once your application is filled out, you can start promoting products. All you have to do is search for a product within the affiliate partner dashboard, and then generate an affiliate link to promote the item.
Then you can promote your affiliate link in various ways. You can start a blog about a certain topic and add your links to your articles.
Or you can start a YouTube channel and add it to the description.
You can also just build a social media following and then promote your affiliate links directly to your followers. It really doesn’t matter how you promote the links. If someone clicks on a link and makes a purchase, you will receive a commission. So how you recommend the products largely depends on your overall affiliate marketing strategy.
As soon as you referred your first customer to Amazon, they will review your application and approve you or decline you as a partner.
If you don’t refer a sale within a few months, Amazon will automatically close your application. So as soon as you’ve set up your account, you need to get active and get your first affiliate sale.
Generally, Amazon only gives you a small commission.
To promote products that have more earning potential, I recommend you take a look at sites like JV Zoo or ClickBank.com. There you’ll find a lot of products that pay great affiliate commissions.
