amazon context links WhooHoo, it’s finally here! Can’t believe no one’s blogging this yet. This is a VERY cool option for bloggers, niche marketers and forum owners! Amazon just announced that their new Context Links platform is now in OPEN Beta. I blogged the new contextual PPA links back in Nov when the closed Beta 1st started. Amazon Context Links are very much like Kontera contextual links but pull products Amazon’s massive database that match key phrases within your content.

You can design your Context Links with single underlines to look more like regular links or use dashed underline or double underline link formats to indicate to your site visitors that they are Context Links. When you mouseover a link you get a preview window if you want to set it up that way. One of the best things about the Context Links Beta platform is that you can limit how many ads are shown on a page so your page does not end up looking like a link farm.

Want to see some examples? MuppetCentral.com (single underline links are Context Links)
Thought Garage (double underline links are Context Links)
