in this video I'll show you how to
promote Amazon affiliate links on
Pinterest so you can start earning money
so first we need to go over to the
Amazon affiliate website so to do that
type in Amazon Associates in Google or
you can just go to this URL here now
once you're here you can recommend
products on Amazon any products and you
can earn commissions when people buy
them so if we scroll down here you can
see we can sign up for the Amazon
affiliate website we can then recommend
products and then we can earn up to 10
in commissions when someone buys that
product so if you scroll up and you
click here where it says sign up you can
just sign up for an account so after
you've clicked on sign up you can then
create your Amazon Associates account
you just need to give them your account
information which is going to be your
name and address you need to enter in
your website so they can review it then
you can just enter in some more personal
information on the profile section and
then you're done you can start using the
Amazon Associates program now once you
log into your Amazon Associates program
here is the dashboard and if you scroll
down here you I'll just show you some
earnings in case you're unfamiliar with
what that looks like so this is the back
end of the Amazon Associates program now
what we can do is we can start to
promote products now you don't actually
do this on the back end of of the Amazon
affiliate program you can actually do
this straight away on Amazon okay so
here I am on Amazon you can see once
you've been approved for the Amazon
Associates program and you're logged in
you'll have this new gray bar up here at
the top of Amazon now here you can find
your affiliate link and you can add it
once you're on a specific product so if
I go ahead and go to let's say this
product here this dash cam let's say we
wanted to promote this product which is
a hundred and one dollars we could then
get our link here using this bar so if
you go to get link and then click Text
you'll be then able to generate a text
link so we'll click Text and you can
then generate a short on link or a full
link in which we can copy and this link
will redirect to this product and if
someone was to buy it we'll earn up to
10 in commission now because we're
promoting our Amazon affiliate link on
Pinterest you need to have some content
here whether that's a video like this
one or an image you need to create some
content which you can promote your link
with now the best way to do that is to
go to a website called canva.com and
then if you go to the the search bar you
can just type in Pinterest
and here you'll be given some options
here so we've now got Pinterest pin
which we can click on now we can see 10
000 Pinterest pins and we can also
scroll down on the left
and we can go ahead and choose the free
ones so now we've got all of the free
Pinterest pins now I don't know why
sometimes it shows you the paid ones but
we'll just filter through these and you
will find a free one now you can edit
these however you want and obviously
they're going to need to match your
Pinterest theme if that's what you're
going for but for me I'm just going to
go to Amazon I'm going to right click
and save this image here so if we click
on it it should open up in a new window
we can save image as I'll just save it
to my downloads here and then what I can
do is I can drag this onto canva okay so
here is the image we're just going to
upload it and you can see it kind of
like snaps on the pin which is good so
now we've got this image on our pin we
can also delete text so I'm going to
delete this one and I'll move this bar
up and I'll also move this text up as
well and I'm going to delete this text
at the bottom and we're just going to
make this text a bit bigger and then I
can recenter this and once I'm happy
with my pin this isn't the best pin but
again it's for an example we can go to
share in the top right hand corner
and then we can click on download and
you can then download this pin as a PNG
file we can now then go and upload this
to our Pinterest board so once you're on
Pinterest you obviously need an account
and you probably need a niche and a
theme as well I'm just going to use my
tutorial profile so if I go to my
profile icon in the top right hand
corner it will take me here now I can
click on this pin icon in the right hand
corner and we can go to pin
then we can add our title so I'm just
going to add our title and call it
something like the best
dash cam under 150 I'm then going to
click here where we can drag and drop
our upload so I'm going to then go to
download and we'll upload this file here
that we've just downloaded from canva
then we can add a destination link now
this destination link needs to be our
affiliate link so if we go back to
Amazon we can then go to the top left
hand corner make sure you're on your
product go to get link click Text
and then you can copy your short Amazon
link then go back to Pinterest and enter
in the destination link then you can
tell everyone about your PIN so just
write a unique description use some
hashtags like dash cam in my case and
then we can go ahead and go up here we
can then create a new board and I might
want to call this dash cams then we can
create this board now we can save this
and this pin should then be posted to
our profile and there you go there is
our pin and when someone wants to go to
this and click on it it should then
redirect them to Amazon in a second and
then if they then buy this product for a
hundred and one dollars we're going to
earn about seven to ten dollars
