Before explaining that,i would like to say unless google adsense or any other ad publishing programs, Amazon.com doesn't pay you for showing their advertisements in your site or blog or people clicking on it.They will pay you a certain amount of money if the user who reach their site will buy anything from them.


 Once you are logged in you while you fill up their forms you have to select one option from two compensation options amazon offer for associates.

• Classic fee structure : This plan is fixed rate plan.You earn 4% of advertising fee on items offered by Amazon or by third parties except Personal computers which is 25$ and Amazon Video On Demand as well as Amazon MP3 products which is $1.50 per item.
• Performance fee structure : This plan allows you to increase your revenue and you can earn from 4% to 15% of the product value but this depends on the number of items shipped to the customers who came through your blog.

  Now once you have selected the fee structure you have to select the payment method.Now when all these things are over you have plenty of options to choose how to place amazon ads in your blogs.Some of the options are given below.

         This is the first and most user friendly ad placement you should try.Amazon.com provides 14 different kind of widgets which you can place anywhere in your blog or website.Once you select any of those you can easily customize it's look to suit for your web page.


I personally suggest you two widgets which always worked and still works for me,


One is Deals widget,

                  

And next one is Recommended Product links

                        

These are the best widgets i found which can make some money fast.Others might have different opinions.Then again some things works for someone and it may not work for the other guy.

• Product Links

     This is the next type of link which you can place in your site.It will look something like this
