    Default Need Amazon Ad Help

    Can anyone tell me where to find instructions about adding an Amazon picture ad to a blogger blog? Not a widget or banner ad.

    I want to add my associate linked picture below each paragraph in my post.

    Thank you for your help.

    Are you able to add the image to your post okay?

    If so, just create an Associate "text link" and enclose your image within the <a> </a> tags.

    Thanks for the reply AJ.

    I'm sorry for being a noob here, but could you explain a little further.

    Here is the html code from Amazon for a "text only' ad.

    <a href="AMAZON WEBSITE">KEYWORD</a><img src="AMAZON WEBSITE" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />

    How do I enclose the image within the <a> </a> tags?

    Do you have your own image you want to use? If so:

    <a href="AMAZON WEBSITE"><img src="YOUR IMAGE" /></a>

    If you want to use the Amazon provided image, get the link code for "Image Only (Basic Display)" on the Associates page.

    Then to add it to your blog go the HTML edit view and paste it in.

    Thanks for your help AJ. I know I am making this more complicated than it is.

    I want to use Amazon's image. I added the html link code for "Image Only (Basic Display)" on the Associates page to my post in Blogger, clicked publish, but the image does not show up on my blog.

    The Amazon instructions say: IMPORTANT: Save this image to your server, then cut and paste the HTML code in the lower left textbox into your web page.

    I think I am suppose to save their image to my computer, but where? If I was building a static site I think I would put the image in an image folder and then the html would pull the image from there.

    download the amazon-pic to your computer;
    in blogger select "insert image" and choose "upload from my computer"
    switch to html-view
    insert your amazon-assoc. link (you only need the following part)
    Code:
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/blabla?ie=UTF8&tag=blabla-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=blabla
    here:

    <a href="INSERT AMAZON LINK HERE" blabla<img src="blabla" /></a>
