How To Intergrate Amazon Store Page On Your WordPress

Amazon Integration Store Page On WordPress-How To Video
I have played around with this and had disaster-
All I wanted was a separate page with no widgets or sidebars of anything and be able to fit the Amazon store page to my blog-Shit this was a process that really bugged me-I found this guys blog that just blew me away -
His site click here So I decided to put a 5 mins video how to do this-PLEASE BE AWARE NOT MY IDEA,wish it had been– See his site bloody great information.
So below is a code you need to set up using notepad and save as astore.php – you will then need to upload to your server using cute or free ftp severs in the wp- content file -then into the theme you are currently using -more explaining as we go.
Below is the code-you will need to change one thing-so read the complete post, really easy to do–
Click here to get note pad code Then copy and save code on notepad, save as – astore.php – we need to change one line after we have set up our astore on Amazon which is the Inline form and will look like–
<iframe src=”http://astore.amazon.com/photography108-20″ width=”100%” height=”4000″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no”></iframe>
Log into your Amazon Associate page and select aStore. This is where you will configure the look of your store and decide which products you want to promote. You have a few options, one you can manually choose the products for your store, or you can find a “listmania id” and use the item that are in the list you choose. Personally, I would hand select my items manually.
Once your store is configured the way you want you will be given a choice on how you want your aStore to be displayed. Choose the ‘Inline Frame’ then copy the code that is provided.
Very important step- paste the aStore code that you copied from your Amazon Associate page over the default code that you saved in note pad as astore.php file. The code that is there will lead to my store. Once your new code is pasted over the default code, upload with ftp or change directly on wordpress using the editor.
Should look like this–
<iframe src=”http://astore.amazon.com/photography108-20″ width=”100%” height=”4000″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no”></iframe>
Either change on note pad and upload again to your theme site or change it direct on ftp or Cpanel- You need to ftp the php file to your wordpress blog under wp-content then find the theme you are using and upload php file to it.
Alternative method: Login to your WordPress dashboard and select the theme “Appearance” button, then select “editor.” Now on the right side there will be a list of pages which are part of your chosen theme. Select the Amazon aStore Template (looks something like this: Amazon_astore_template.php) You will know it because you just created and uploaded it.
Very important step if you have not already changed the inline code to your store: paste the aStore code that you copied from your Amazon Associate page over the default code that is there. The code that is there will lead to my store. Once your new code is pasted over the default code, update the page with the button below the editor.
Navigate back to your WordPress dashboard and select “Page,” then “add new.” Name this page Store or Shop or whatever you like. Down below and to the right there should be a place to select a page template. Use the drop down menu and select “Amazon Store or might be A store” Now publish that page.
My advice is you must have your own domain set up for WordPress-other wise a problem-Domains only cost around $10 and hosting $10 a month for unlimited domains-from say Hostgator-not sending you there up to you to decide.

Almost everyone that makesmoney on the internet (even the millionaires) do so through affiliate marketing. Being successful in affiliate marketing involves knowing the formula that makes other affiliate marketers successful. For example, autoblogging. Autoblogging has been one of the least well-known forms of making money for quite some time… particularly because it’s quite difficult to make a good auto-blog. Yet, when done right, it can provide you with a constant passive income with the only real work required being the setting up process. Video Marketing, and several other marketing strategies are all designed to drive traffic to your site, can be incorporated steadily in order to raise the position your site appears in the search engine results page when any one searches for a term related to your site. And yet, even this can be totally automated.
how do I get the astore.php as a option in my word press editor?
@Arnell I am presuming that you have copied the php file to notepad and saved as astore.php -then you need to ftp in your theme file,once that is done when you make a new page you should be able to see on the right side a drop down template box that will say something like” a store” that is the template you need-let me know if that helps,
First of all, I LOVED your video. By far the easiest and most precise way I have read about the process. My question is when I tried this http://internetenabledtelevisions.com/store/ the sidebar is completely cut off. My hunch is that it is some kind of a CSS edit I need to make. Im not good at CSS at all. Can you take a look and give me an idea?
Thank you
@Eric,Had a look at your site very impressive-if you mean the sidebars to the right or left-no they will not appear-the idea being to keep distractions away so customers concentrate on your store-One thing you can do on your inline form code is to change the width.standard is 96% put to 100% spreads store across page.do not change height as it will cut off reviews-hope that helps – you can see on mystore I have on photography http://photographycourses4u.com/camera-supplies/ the same structure.
