How to Add Amazon Ad Code to a Wordpress Blog
1. Establish an Amazon affiliate membership (see Resources below). Set up your information with your name, email, choices on how you want to receive payments, your username and any other information that is needed by Amazon.
2. Once this step is complete and everything is ready to go with Amazon you are ready to create a link to a product. Go to the Affiliate Program page. Sign in to your account.
3. I'll show you a specific product link, but the steps for a link, a banner or a widget are basically the same. On the Affiliate main page, click the tab called 'Links & Banners' on the tabbed menu at the top.
4. On the new page for Product Links select 'Add Product Links Now.'
5.
You can narrow down your search for the exact product you want to sell using the drop-down menu to select a category within Amazon's product line. You can enter an exact title or give an ASIN/ISBN if you know it. Press Go.
6. If you get more than one result in your search, find the proper one. Click the button that says 'Get Link' for the one you picked.
7.
In the window that opens, select your link type. If you choose 'Text and Image' (Enhanced Display) you don't have to copy the image and upload it. Amazon will serve the image. If you choose 'Image Only' you will need to copy the image and upload it. If you choose 'Text Only' you get a text link with no photo.
8. You can customize the link to fit your blog's color scheme, then you are ready to grab the HTML for the product link. It's immediately under what you see in the image in Step 7. Copy that HTML.
9. I recommend you leave the Amazon page open. If you need the HTML again, it will be findable. In a new browser tab sign in to your Wordpress blog. Create a new post title in the usual way. Type some text in the blog post to talk about the product you are planning to link.
10. At the top of the Wordpress blog post entry field, click the tab that says HTML.Find the spot where you want to insert to link to the product. Paste the HTML from Amazon there.
11. At the top of the Wordpress blog post entry field, click the tab that says 'Visual.' Check visually to make sure things turned out the way you want. Select 'Save Draft' and then Preview the post so you can click on the link to make sure it really goes to the Amazon page you want, then close the Preview.
12. If you have finished writing the text you want to have appear with the link, you are ready to click 'Publish.'

How to Upgrade My YouTube Channel
1. Create a Google AdSense account. You can use the same Google account that you use for YouTube. Go to the AdSense website, enter your account information into the sign-in fields, and follow the on-screen account setup instructions. Once you have your AdSense account set up, you will need to wait for Google to send you an authorization code via postal mail. This code will need to be entered into your AdSense account in order for you to start receiving ad payments.
2. Create video content that does not include any audio or visual imagery from works that do not allow commercial use. You may be familiar with fair-use practices of audio and video sampling, but these cannot be used with YouTube videos that will be generating ad revenue. The only samples that you can use are those that fall under public domain or that are licensed under a Creative Commons license that allows for commercial remixing. Otherwise, all the audio and video content in your YouTube channel must be yours alone.
3. Amass thousands of viewers on your YouTube channel. YouTube does not specify how many viewers are necessary before a user becomes eligible for a partnership. The exception to this requirement is if you are a filmmaker who has a proven record of successful commercial sales, such as DVDs or digital downloads.
4. Submit a YouTube Partner application at YouTube's Partner website. If your account does not meet the specified criteria, this page will automatically redirect you to the main YouTube homepage. YouTube may take several days to inform you of your application status.
