Amazon the worlds biggest online shopping portal founded in 1994 and its yet another gold mine for affiliate marketers. Joining Amazon associates is easy and free. Its simple to operate like selecting a product, sell it and earn money. Wikipedia says that Amazon earns 40% of its revenue from its affiliates. It has more than 90K affiliate members. Its quite common that bloggers could easily find quality products from amazon to promote on their blog (from any niche).
WordPress bloggers have more flexibilities by means of free plugins. WordPress has bunch of amazon plugins and i found 40+ plugins (when i searched for “amazon affiliate”). And finally, i filtered them to the 5 best plugins. Using wordpress plugins makes your work simpler to show amazon products and it helps to easily increase your affiliate earnings.
#1 – Amazon Affiliate Link Localizer.
A plugin which finds the amazon links on your blog and automatically converts them into affiliate links. Just you have to provide your affiliate ID. Interestingly, this plugin converts affiliate links based on the geographic location of the visitors. For example, a visitor from UK will be redirected to amazon.co.uk and a visitor fom US will be sent to amazon.com.
#2 – Amazon Autoposter.
This plugin finds products and creates Amazon ads automatically on your blog. You have to specify the keywords and this plugin shows related products. So this plugin helps you to show contextual products for the visitors. It has the option to customize the widget like changing length of product description, product thumbnails etc.
#3 – Amazon Product In a Post Plugin.
This plugin gives option to add specific products to any blog post. And it displays the amazon product on both top and bottom of the blog post. Just give the affiliate ID to enable this plugin and add whatever products you want. It has the Quick Add Product Feature (Amazon PIP) which helps you to quickly add the products to this plugin. You could customize the CSS to change the look and feel too.
#4 – WP Amazon Ads.
Another plugin which is specially designed for multi author blogs. It has the option to share the earned amazon revenue with other authors or they could include their affiliate ID. So if you want to run a amazon revenue sharing site then this plugin is best suited for you. Don’t miss it !
#5 – Amazon Store.
The best plugin which helps you to simply create an amazon store on your blog. It integrates a shopping cart which makes everything simpler for you and for your buyers. You could create categories & sub-categories to list the amazon products as you prefer.

Hope these plugins will help you in showing great amazon products on your blog. Go through the features on download page and select the one that best suites your need. Its really required to show quality products which are closely related to your blog topic, in order to make a decent income from Amazon associates.
Hi, I absolutely love surfing the internet !. Remarkable isn’t it that 15 years ago it barely existed. Today even Bill Clintons cat has a blog !. My apologies in case you feel I am being cheeky writing this here BUT I am 15 years old and have to do a project at school (for my GCSE exams). It would really, really help if folks posted on here how many hours a week they consider they spend on the Web. I believe I am up to 30 hours !. Really appreciate anybody taking the time to reply. Thanks. Bookmarked, I will return every single week.
Nicely said Sanda, good luck and stay tuned here !

Yes, ann we could do many stuffs only with free to use plugins…that’s the “power of wordpress”.
thanks for the list. I love the link localiser.
I have over 9880 visitors this month to my site and no sales what am I doing wrong ? Great post thoguh.
@ Rasheed – Looking at your site I’m guessing you’re not even close to 9880 visitors in a month, you’ve only got a couple dozen links in a competitive field. The first thing I’d do if I were you is be honest with your situation…
Thanks for your artikel, i’m new comer in amazone affiliate
Thanks for the list…
wowow thank you for all this share, you have safe me time, thank you
Some of the plugins aren’t updated to latest. Do you have a new blogpost with newest ones you found?
I’ve had very mixed experiences with Amazon plugins and I’m still looking for one that I can rely on, which is why I’m here. I guess the problem with some of the plugins is the Amazon API, when it changes a lot of plugins using it aren’t updated to reflect those changes.
that’s right Thomas and this is the basic problem with free plugins – in that case you could take a premium plugin which supports up-to-date…this gives me an idea to write an article on the premium plugins – will do that soon !
Thanks.
