I only get paid if you buy something and it is NOT anything different than Amazon's standard affiliate program. Amazon has details on that program here: http://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/join Anyone can participate, not just me. It is NOT a sponsored link.

Nothing special. You can do it too. Then anyone who clicked a link on your blog and bought something from Amazon would get you paid too. You have ads on your blog. No different than that.
