We discussed Amazon Associates in class not long ago. We were encouraged to sign up for that, or Google AdSense so that we could run ads on our page. I signed up for Amazon Associates so that I could put some product ads on my blog (and maybe make a little money). I feel like the Amazon ads look better on a page than Google ads do.

Amazon Associates are an affiliate of Amazon. The website says this: "By linking to Amazon products and services you can add compelling content for your site visitors enjoyment and receive up to 10% in referral fees for doing so... Current participants in the Amazon Associates program include large, well-known sites, niche content sites and blogs, comparison shopping engines, search engine marketers, and everything in between. Visit our Current Associates page to see how some of these members are using our solutions... Associates drive internet traffic to Amazon.com through specially formatted links that allow us to track sales and other activity."
