For example, from my website I want to link users to an entire search queries result page on Amazon.com rather than thinking them to just one specific product at a time.

Is it possible to do something like this?

http://www.amazon.com/s/?ref=sr_st?keywords=skates&qid=1363145953&rh=n:3375251,k:skates&sort=-price&tag=stackexample-20

Go to link shown above

As you can see I'm trying to land users on a search page for "skates", with the highest priced items at the top, and my affiliate ID in this case "stackexample-20"

Thanks in advance!

  • I know that is old question, but did you find out this thing? I think that you can add tag to search ling, but cookie is created only in product detail with tag. – tomasr Jan 21 '16 at 15:43
  • @tomasr search page tagging works just fine. – pawan Aug 20 '18 at 10:30

2018: You could create a link like this (using jquery):

      function createAmznLink (text) {        
         var amznLink = "<a href=http://www.amazon.de/s/field-keywords=" + text + "&tag=yourtag" + ">" + text + "</a>"              
         $('.linklist').append(amznLink);        
      }

      createAmznLink('product');

You can do searches using affiliate tags you are doing it above once you are on the page you will get commissions for the next 24 hours(i think) . Since the affiliate cookie is set on the browser of the user.

  • Sorry, but "I think" doesn't really cut it as a valid answer here. I know how the affiliate program and cookies that get on the client work. What I'd like to see is someone actually verify earnings from doing this. – gbdev Jan 28 '14 at 13:47
