In April we told you about UnSpun by Amazon and a widget they had released. The UnSpun team wanted us to let you know that they have improved their widget specifically for Associates by making items in the list widgets link directly to Amazon.com when they have an Amazon link on their corresponding UnSpun page. This means you can now earn referral fees if your site visitors visit Amazon.com from the widget.
For example, in the widget in our last UnSpun post you will notice that some of the items in the Top Albums list have an Amazon icon next to them that links to the detail page. If I see an item in the list that doesn't have a link, I can go to the Top Albums list page on UnSpun and add a link to an Amazon detail page. The item in the list will then link to Amazon.
Using this widget you can show community rankings on any existing topic or one you create yourself at http://unspun.amazon.com. Your site visitors will then be able to vote on your list.
To put a list on your site, click the "Put this list on your site" link, and then click "Customize" to specify a size and input your Associates ID to ensure you are credited for your referrals.
If you have feedback on the UnSpun widget, please visit http://unspun.amazon.com and you'll see a "Submit Feedback" link at the top of the page.
