How to do Affiliate Marketing on YouTube
In this article, I’ll share with you how you can do amazon affiliate marketing on youtube.
This is one of the easiest ways possible & it is not limited to just the Amazon affiliate program, you can follow this exact affiliate marketing technique to any affiliate program you want.
Let’s get start
First, we need to sign up for Amazon Associate Program i.e the Amazon affiliate referral program
when you sign up as an amazon associate, you’ll get a unique referral id & whenever someone purchases any amazon product through your unique link (I’ll show it later in the article how to get it). you’ll get a commission.
How To Sign Up As an Amazon Affiliate
Just go to this link & click on sign up
Then you’ll need to fill up a simple form with your basic details & some questions like – which categories you wanna work in? how do you intend to promote the products? your website link etc.
It is a pretty simple step-by-step form. so, I don’t think you’ll get any problem. if you do run into one, let me know
Once you sign up – you can start promoting right away…there is no waiting for approval.
But the Amazon Associate program does have a catch..a condition that you have to get at least 3 sales in the period of the first 6 months from your signing up.
If you fail to do so…your Amazon associate account would be suspended.
Now…here is the thing.
This condition is nothing to worry about because getting sales for amazon products is really easy
Why Amazon Affiliate Program is Perfect For Affiliate Marketing Beginners
As I said getting amazon affilaite sales is pretty easy…Amazon is a well-known & respected brand.
People love & trust amazon so they won’t find it very hard to purchase from Amazon.
All you need to do is find the right products to promote to the right people…that is it.
If you choose the right product & promote it the right way…You’ll get sales literally on auto-pilot
So let’s get on to it.
But before that let me share with you the Amazon Affiliate Commission List

Here is the list of commissions and how much amazon is ready to pay for its affiliates.
Different Ways To Do Amazon Affiliate Program
There are many ways you can do amazon affiliate marketing – you can use your website, email list, youtube, social media marketing, your clients, etc.
But I won’t be going into all of that today.
This blog post is dedicated to teaching you how to do Amazon affiliate marketing with YouTube.
How to Promote Amazon Products on YouTube to Make Money with Amazon Associate Program.
tell me something – how many of you watch youtube videos?
How many times you have seen something on a youtube channel that you liked & wanted to try yourself?
we all did right?
How does Amazon Affiliate Program Work?
well, the thing is usually when we see some product that we like we don’t go to Amazon & search for it…Nope, we just go to the description of that particular youtube video & click the dam link in the description
And that my dear friend is the Affiliate link – and when you click & buy that product that YouTuber makes money from it.
And the best thing about the Amazon Associate affiliate Program is if someone clicks on your link & and they make a purchase within 24hrs, no matter what they purchase you’ll get the commission for that.
So even if you recommend a $1 product & someone went to amazon through your link & brought a $500 product, you’ll get a commission for that…given the sales happens within 24 hrs & your’s is the last amazon affiliate link they clicked.
Hope this is clear.
Now Let’s move on to the most important part of the article…honestly the only part you care about, & that is how to do affiliate marketing on youtube to make money from amazon
How to Make Money on YouTube Using Amazon Associate Affiliate Program
It is no secret that one of the best affiliate marketing strategies to get sales on YouTube is to publish review videos.
Product review videos work best because not only do people get to know the product better, but they also see the product in action so almost 90% of their doubts get cleared by watching a review video.
It is a known fact that today before ordering anything online, most people tend to go to youtube to search for reviews & when your review answers all their questions.
They couldn’t wait to buy it, so they just go through your link & buy it.
Now traditionally you can create your own product videos but here are the 2 issues
1. you need to be thorough…you need to dig deep & research the product. So, that your review clears all queries
2. You mostly need to try the product yourself to create a detailed review…which might seem fair but not feasible.
If you are just gonna promote 2-3 products a month & if you have the money to burn. of course, you could buy the products…but if you want to make a decent amount of money from affiliate marketing you need to review 100’s if not 1000’s of products & this method doesn’t work
I.e why today I’m gonna show you the easiest way to create amazon product review videos in minutes without owning the product
And mind you…the product review will be completely genuine & legit & it’ll be based on all the reviews that amazon already has
