Bloggers Easily Build Links to Amazon Products
Bloggers will often link to media on Amazon. Many have affiliate accounts and earn a small commission if the link referral converts to a sale. However, the process of going to Amazon, locating the book, looking for the ASIN number and hand building a referral link that is XHTML compliant can take a while. Adding an image of the book or DVD makes it even more complicated.
It was too many steps for me, so I created a tool that I hope will be as useful to others as it will be for me.
To create the XHTML for the Toy Story DVD link and image below, I completed the form as such and hit Build Amazon Link.

UPDATE (10/21/07): Amazon now sells MP3s via their affiliate program. I’ve updated the Build Amazon Link form to handle MP3 Downloads.
