Step 1: Sign Up for the Amazon Associates Program
You must be an Amazon affiliate partner to insert Amazon images on your website.
Jump to the next step if you are already an Amazon associate.
Head to the Amazon Associates Central website. Then click on the “Sign Up” button.
Create an Amazon account first to log in. Existing account holders can use the same credentials to sign up as an Amazon affiliate.
Enter your website URL and app links on the following pages. You can insert between 1 to 50 websites or mobile apps here.
Provide your associate store ID and describe your content type on the “Profile” page.
Click “Finish.” A confirmation message will appear on the next page.
You can set your payment and tax information to get paid from the confirmation screen or skip it for later.
With this account, you can generate a text link, image link, and image with text link for an Amazon affiliate product.
You can also display banners and custom ads for affiliate products.
Step 2: Use SiteStripe To Generate Amazon Affiliate Link
With an Amazon associate account, you can generate an Amazon affiliate link with the following steps:
Visit the Amazon marketplace and log in as a customer. You must use the account associated with your Amazon affiliate account to generate Amazon links.
Browse or search for your desired Amazon product to insert the Amazon image.
Find the SiteStripe bar at the top. Click “Image” to generate a unique affiliate link.
Choose your preferred image size. I recommend using large images as Amazon product images are relatively small.
Copy the generated HTML for the Amazon product.
Step 3: Insert the Amazon Product Image Into Your WordPress Site
With the amazon affiliate link copied to your clipboard:
Log in to the WordPress Dashboard.
Navigate to Posts > All Posts, then open a post to insert Amazon images. You can also create a new post or insert the affiliate link to a page or a WordPress widget.
Select an area, then insert a Custom HTML block from the Block Editor.
Paste the HTML code copied from the Site Stripe Amazon link generator. Then tap “Preview” to see how the product image would look on your site.
Click “Publish” or “Update” from the top of the page to save your changes.
