Mostly the taxes info setup videos are for regions like US, this time a video for the asian regions like India, China and Pakistan,etc. would be very valuable for people

Thank you

HI The video is great. Before I had the Amazon affiliate website but I don't have much traffic. I have the question. Why do the people have to buy by amazon link associate ? Thanks

[@user-jb6mv8nt9i]

Thanks for this video. I have a question you may be able to assist me with since i cannot seem to find this information anywhere. I have a personal Amazon account and a Business Amazon account... can a business account become an affiliate? There are items I purchase as a business that I'd like to create an affiliate link for but can't seem to do so unless I switch to my personal account and create the link that way. I'm trying to eliminate several steps in between and hope I can be an affiliate using my business account instead. thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide. SR

This was all helpful, but I have neither a website or a social media account with a huge following. What do I use to sign up in place? 😭

[@albinosterlindh7146]

Concerning Amazon affiliate is it so that when a customer clicks on my link I get paid no matter what they buy? And does the customer get any type of discount when buying from my link as I guess it has to be worth for a person to click my link.

do you have to put your own website or can you do a random website like i did?
