My Amazon associates id is embeded in code in all links that revert to amazon accept image links..That matter? - emerch - 04-08-2014 08:03 PM

I can find my amazon associates id within the code of all hyperlinks on my site that revert to amazon EXCEPT the image hyperlinks... My concern is that amazon will not register a commission on a sale originating from my site if the image hyperlink is used to navigate to amazon instead of the banner ads or text hyperlinks that seem to contain my id..

If this is a problem additional information on embedding my associates id within the code would be much appreciated

(Found this difference when inspecting the element of each hyperlink.)

If the images are hyperlinked to the product and that is not tagged then yes it makes a difference.

If you are referring to the image source then no it does not.
