Where is Amazon Associate on Blogger?

I remember that I used to have the Amazon Associate option under the monetize tab.  Unfortunately, simply couldn't find yet yesterday.   When finally found a way to add Amazon Associate to blogs, I found this error message staring at me.

Then I realized that... oops... it seems like the partnership between blogger and Amazon Associate no longer exist.  Yet, you still can insert Amazon Associate ads to your blogger blog by inserting the html codes manually.

Just got it done last night:

1. Log in to your Amazon Associate account at https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/

2. Click on the Links and Banner tab and type in your keyword.  Click go to search for the item


3.  Once you locate the item of interest in the returned search result, click on the "get link" button to get the HTML code.



4.  The codes in the text box are the HTML codes corresponding to the item (in this case, Nu Skin Moisture Restore Day Protective Lotion SPF 15).  You can also play around and get the codes customized in this page.


Copy the codes and past it into your blog through the Edit HTML interface.

Good luck and hope this helps.
