AmaLinks Pro Features Overview

AmaLinks Pro has just the right amount of features to give you flexibility and options when linking to Amazon, without being technically overcomplicated.

The features and settings are powerful enough for a professional, yet simple enough for a beginner. Let’s take a closer look at the best features of AmaLinks Pro.

Using the Amazon API, you can search Amazon right within your dashboard and choose a product to add affiliate links to. Here is where you can access the table builder interface as well instead of searching for a single product.

After searching, you are presented with a list of available products on Amazon to choose from. You can choose a product or load a new page of results.

After you choose a product, you will choose a link type. There are 4 link types available: a text link, image link, call-to-action button, and product showcase box.

Let’s take a look at each link type in more detail now. I’ll show you what your website visitor will see, then we will look at some admin controls used to create the links.

Product Showcase Boxes

First up are the product showcase boxes. This is one of the most important link types AmaLinks Pro offers so we’ll cover it first. Choose from a variety of clean modern looking product showcase boxes that draw your website visitor’s attention to the product, give them some valuable information about it, and entices them to click on the CTA button. 

Adding product showcase boxes is a great way to increase any web page’s affiliate commissions. The product showcase boxes stand out, they draw attention and they entice the viewer to click through to Amazon.

Here are some of the product showcase boxes AmaLinks Pro has to offer.

All text and images are editable or can be hidden. Only the price cannot be edited as per the Amazon Associates Operating Agreement. Prices MUST be pulled from the API only.

Here is a look at the edit screen for one of the showcases. You can toggle elements on and off, edit images, and edit any text except the price.

Comparison Tables

AmaLinks Pro also helps you create lightning-fast product comparison tables to engage your website visitors with. It has been proven in many affiliate marketing case studies across the web that comparison tables can increase your click-through rate ultimately earning you more commissions.

Here is an AmaLinks Pro Comparison Table Example:

Setting up a comparison table is fast and easy with or without the API. There is a lot you can edit within a product comparison table

You can hide columns on mobile and tablet to make sure your tables display optimally on all screen sizes and link any cell that you want to with that row’s product affiliate link.

Custom Call-to-Action (CTA) Buttons

Every blog post that refers to visitors through an Amazon affiliate link can use a call-to-action button to increase the CTR on that page and earn more money in commissions.

A CTA button really draws the visitor’s eye towards the isolated CTA button, and especially if you have presold the product can result in a lot of website users clicking on that button and getting your Amazon affiliate cookie set on their browser.

Remember you make a commission on almost anything that person buys on Amazon within the next 24 hours.

Text and image links

Inserting text and image links has never been easier with AmaLinks Pro. When using the Amazon API for inserting text links, it automatically uses the product’s name but the text is editable.

When it comes to using Amazon’s product images to promote the product on your own website, you must use the API to pull the images to stay 100% compliant with the Amazon Associates Operating Agreement.

AmaLinks Pro pulls all available images from the API for the product you have chosen. You can choose from small, medium, or large sizes.

AmaLinks Pro No-API features

AmaLinks Pro is the only Amazon Affiliate WordPress Plugin that can switch between No-API mode and API mode seamlessly, in full compliance with Amazon’s policies.

Why would AmaLinks Pro offer a No-API option? 

Because Amazon does not grant new affiliates access to the Product Advertising API until after they make 3 successful referrals manually.

This means that new affiliates need to generate a few sales first, then get API access. With AmaLinks Pro, you can use our awesome link types manually to get your first 3 referrals as fast as possible. 

Once you gain API access all you have to do is connect your API keys to AmaLinks Pro and you can now display product prices, look up product images, and search Amazon right within your dashboard. 

Here is a comparison of which features require the API and which do not.

* Please note that all features come with every license.

AmaLinks Pro Global Settings & Customizable Styles

AmaLinks Pro has some basic settings, style settings for the buttons, showcases, and tables, Amazon API settings, and global defaults such as button text.

Here are some screenshots of the controls you have at your fingertips

Often it’s a good idea to open affiliate links in a new window so the visitor also stays on your affiliate site in the original tab. This setting assures all your AmaLinks Pro links open in a new tab when creating new links. This sets the default for your link creator.

Many affiliates like to add a nofollow meta tag to their links to tell Google not to follow the link because it is an affiliate link. This sets the default for your link creator.

Amazon offers an “add to cart” cookie you can use instead of the traditional 24-hour cookie. If you like to use this feature, it is available for you.
