We also have a  diamond-plated, rock-solid – no questions asked – 100% money-back guarantee within the first 30 days. So there is absolutely no risk to you to try it out.

What is required to use AmaLinks Pro?

• You must be using a self-hosted version of WordPress (not wordpress.com)
• Your site must be running on PHP 7.0 or higher (check with your host)
• You must have an approved Amazon Associates account
• You must be signed up for the Amazon Product Advertising API.

How does AmaLinks Pro handle geo-targeting?

Geo-targeting (aka link localization) is complex. We’ve built AmaLinks Pro to be fully compatible with 2 different 3rd party services that do a phenomenal job with link localization for Amazon affiliate links – Amazon OneLink and Genius Link. We published a very detailed blog post which explains it all in detail here.

The gist of it is that we didn’t have to build link localization (geo-targeting) as a feature within AmaLinks Pro because other services already cover that really well and they are fully compatible with AmaLinks Pro.

Does AmaLinks Pro work with Gutenberg or Classic editor?

AmaLinks Pro is compatible with and works seamlessly both in the new Gutenberg editor and in the Classic WordPress editor.

Why do I have to pay annually vs a one-time payment?

We use the recurring payment model for AmaLinks Pro mainly because we are continuously working on and improving the plugin and have plans to do so indefinitely. As a subscriber to and user of AmaLinks Pro – you will notice constant changes and improvements over time. Without recurring revenue – what would be our motivation to keep moving forward? AmaLinks Pro is not a one-and-done deal. It just keeps getting better and better.

Look at one of the competing Amazon affiliate WordPress plugins, for example. EasyAzon. They were (by far) the most popular for several years, but they only charged a one-time fee and look what happened to EasyAzon… They haven’t made any major changes or improvements in years. And when they did release new versions (years ago), they had to ask their current customers to pay again to get the newest version!

With AmaLinks Pro – we are being honest and up front with our subscription model. The Basic and Premium plans (our most popular) are annually recurring (you pay yearly). We DO offer one-time payment for our Platinum plan (lifetime subscription) – although it is quite a bit more expensive than the annually recurring plans.

What if I sell/transfer/buy a site with active links created using AmaLinks Pro?

A site seller may choose to leave his/her license key active after they transfer the site – or they may choose to deactivate their license. In either case, all existing links created on the site using AmaLinks Pro will still work as long as the plugin remains installed and activated. If the seller chooses to deactivate their license – the new owner will not be able to create any new links with AmaLinks Pro until they purchase their own license.

What happens if I let my subscription to AmaLinks Pro expire?

All links and shortcodes you create and insert into your website using AmaLinks Pro will continue to work if your license expires or becomes inactive for any reason. You will not, however, be able to create any new links using all of the awesome features built in to AmaLinks Pro. Note: The AmaLinks Pro plugin MUST remain installed and activated for existing links to work.

Do you teach SEO or other traffic strategies for affiliate sites?

No. We focus our time and energy on maintaining AmaLinks Pro as THE very best Amazon affiliate plugin that ever existed. We don’t want to spread ourselves too thin. There are plenty of other people who teach SEO and website traffic – and those people would teach it much better than us. We choose to concentrate on the plugin itself and everything that it offers – while continually improving the plugin based on user feedback and market desires.

While we don’t formally ‘teach’ SEO or traffic strategies – our automated email series are loaded with all kinds of really helpful information designed to help you earn more with Amazon. We have different email series for buyers and non-buyers (the one for buyers is better!). Sign up at the bottom of any page on our site.

Does the plugin include a WordPress widget for adding Amazon links to widget areas (like sidebars)?

At this time we do not have an official widget – but that is in our plans for a future update. YES, you can insert AmaLinks Pro links in widget areas manually. Here is an awesome tutorial post that shows you exactly how – including a unique strategy that we use to make Amazon product links stick to the page when a user scrolls down (on desktop).

Do you have an affiliate program?
