The Amazon Books team is thrilled to announce Amazon Author Stores (beta), new corners of our bookstore dedicated to offering customers a unique way to browse and shop favorite authors, discover new books, and more. Visit the Amazon Bookstore to search for your favorite authors, or you can visit our A-Z Author Directory to see the complete lineup of featured authors, including Stephenie Meyer, J.K. Rowling, Stephen King, and more.
Amazon Author Stores contain many new features to delight customers and make your links more effective. Today each Author Store includes a bibliography, and may include a biography, author photo, and discussion board. Customers can also find products related to the author, such as DVDs, CDs, and much more. But stay tuned--we’ll be adding more features in the months to come.
Introduce your readers to these new Author Stores and earn referral fees on the subsequent qualifying purchases, use the following link format, replacing "YOUR_ID_HERE-20" with your Associates ID:

Amazon Blogs Widget
Your customers may also be interested in great quality content ranging from books, music, movies and gadgets to toys, pets, food and cars provided by our own experts on the Amazon Blogs. We’ve recently launched a new Amazon Blogs Widget, which will enable you to pull content from these Amazon Blogs and help you to earn even more referral fees.
Here's how it works:
1. Go to https://widgets.amazon.com/Amazon-Blog-Widget/
2. Adjust the size of the widget to suit your website or blog design
3. Choose the content that will appear on the widget by choosing from our 8 category blogs
4. Preview as you change your options on the right hand side
5. Once you are satisfied, simply click on the 'Add to my Web page' button and you will get the code that needs to be added to your site
It's that simple! Of course, as an Associate you will earn referral fees when a reader clicks through from this widget and purchases a qualifying item on Amazon.
