Please delete or move this somewhere else if this is the wrong place to post to this.
Based on a basic Google search, I read that if I click on the Electric Brewery's Amazon Affiliate link that anything I buy within a certain timeframe from Amazon will be credited. Is that correct? I'm making some brewing purchases (as much as I can get from Amazon or other affiliates) and I want to make sure I'm doing this correctly. Put another way, do I need a link to each item from the site, or is simply clicking on the general site link enough?
Thanks for any clarification you can provide. Sorry for being a newb in this area. Just haven't done much in the past, but would like to give back something to the site.

No need to go through our site for each items. Clicking on any affiliate link from here to get to Amazon (or any of our affiliates) is all that's needed. Anything you then purchase after you enter Amazon through us gets tagged as a "TheElectricBrewery.com" sale and we get credited.
So for example, click on any Amazon link from anywhere on this site (or the general Amazon link listed in the first post above) add items to your cart (any item at all, not just the one you may have originally clicked through), and if you checkout within 24 hours TheElectricBrewery.com gets credited with a "finders fee" on all purchases at no additional cost to you. It's a thank you from Amazon to us to help promote their products.
For what it's worth, what we do here with instructions and links on how to use these various products is exactly the sort of unbiased "value add" that the sellers are looking for to help promote their products. There are many that do it the "wrong" way that sellers don't appreciate such as fake reviews or other ways of stretching the truth. Most of these questionable sites do not last as people do catch on after a while.

After more than 10 years we've removed the American Homebrewers Association (AHA) as an affiliate.
Since October 2020 I’ve been trying to get anyone at AHA to respond to my emails, including 10 emails in the last 3 months. I’ve had zero responses.
This is odd, considering that the AHA continues to send emails asking affiliates to promote them including statements such as “If you have misplaced your AHA Referral Program link or have any questions about the above <email>, please let me know” or “Please send me an email if you would a reminder of your unique referral link”. That’s what I’ve been doing now for 14 months. Just looking for confirmations that I'm using the correct links.
Something is clearly broken here so I’ve now removed all affiliate links to the AHA from our website. I love homebrewers and homebrewing, but I cannot in good conscience support an organization that never follows up.
