If you want to buy something from Amazon and you think that I will buy it through my own affiliate link, due to which I will also get commission, then this is absolutely wrong. In such a case, your account, which is an affiliate account, can also be suspended. Apart from this, there is another very important thing not bring three sales through your Amazon affiliate account within the last 6 months, then your account in that particular case will be suspended.

You should not do this, this thing is not right. The fourth important thing is that if someone clicks on your link the day after tomorrow and he does not want to buy the product but buys some other product within 24 hours after purchasing your link, then its relative commission is also received by you in your Amazon affiliate account. It is not that you will get commission only when your product is sold, so you have to keep this thing in mind also. Now, if you You will you have to keep this thing in mind also.
