Hello, I'm thinking of joining the Amazon Affiliate
I have a few question which I coudn't find answer to, maybe someone who asked the same question and found the answer can help me.

1. Can your website be made up only of images, like pintrest and can all the images be of products that link to amazon?
2. Where do you need to wirte on your website that your are an affiliate of amazon and that you are getting paid for every purchase your vistors make ?
3. I understand that its not allowed to post directly your affilate links on facebook,twitter etc. Are you allowed to post a link to your website that contains the affilate links? What about buying PPC to your website not to your affiliate links?
4. What are we allowed to use from the product page ? Are we allowed to use the product pictures?

Thanks, for reading this

1. It's better not. You should have some unique high-quality content on it. Your website will most likely not be accepted by Amazon and it won't convert too much.

2. You need to have two pages on your website. A Privacy Policy page (I don't think it's mandatory though) and an "Affiliate Disclosure". Insert this somewhere in the Disclosure page:

YOUR NAME, who is the editor and owner of www.YOUR-WEBSITE.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com

3. Why not? And actually, you can post your affiliate link on Twitter.

4. I usually just take the picture from the Amazon website. I don't know if that is ok, though. I think it is, as it shouldn't be copyrighted.
