I’ve been using EasyAzon for a few months now and thought I would give you my opinion on this WordPress plugin.
EazyAzon4 Review
Premium WordPress Plugin: EasyAzon 4
Owner: Chris Guthrie
Price: $47
Money Back Guarantee: Yes, 30 Days
A few months back I was looking for a WordPress plugin that could help me increase commission on my amazon niche site.
I wanted to make sure I got paid commission from not just the US but also from my international traffic from Canada, UK, and other places.
I was using a free plugin but there were a lot of issues with it so when I ran into EasyAzon and they claimed not only to be able to help with my international commissions but also help me save time in my daily work, they got my attention.
I’ve now been using EasyAzon for a few months and must say that it has been worth every penny. The main thing is that it saves me a lot of time… but before I dive into the benefits let me explain what EasyAzon is…
What Is EasyAzon?
EasyAzon is a WordPress plugin, that helps you effectively monetize your WordPress site with Amazon. This is all done within your WordPress dashboard, so no need to leave your site and go searching Amazon anymore.
The plugin, created by Chris Guthrie, has been around for a few years and EasyAzon 4 is the current version of the plugin that’s offered.
Benefits of Using EasyAzon
Time Saver
There’s a button added to your posts and pages. All you do is click the button and make a search on a keyword or ASIN. The search result will show directly in your blog. From there you can insert a text link, image link, CTA (call to action) link or info block.
Before this took quite some time for me to look up the products, get the links and paste them on my blog. The images were another time hog…
This plugin saves me so much time, I no longer have to copy and paste affiliate links from Amazon I can do it all from within my blog. Huge time saver!
Make More Commission
There are two ways that the EasyAzon plugin makes sure you don’t leave money on the table monetizing with Amazon.
- By allowing you to add products directly to the Amazon shopping cart. By adding to the shopping cart you get a 90-day cookie instead of the normal 24 hours.
- By optimizing and monetizing traffic from around the world. The plugin makes it easy to make a commission on purchases made in any country you have an Amazon associate account.
No Coding Needed
The plugin is easy to use and you don’t need any coding experience to use it. This was a must for me since I’m not coding savvy at all.

4 Main Features of EasyAzon
1. Create Affiliate Links from Your WordPress Dashboard
The old way to get Amazon links submitted to a post is by…
- Go to Amazon and log into your Amazon associate program
- You then search for the product
- Click “get link” up in the left corner
- Copy the link
- Paste the link into your post
I’m sure you are very familiar with this way of submitting Amazon links. This can take some time but with EasyAzon you can streamline the process and save a ton of time. Within a few seconds, you can have an affiliate link inserted with EasyAzon.
To submit an Amazon link with EasyAzon…
- Highlight the text you want to turn into a link.
2. Click the EasyAzon button in your post ( a new window will show, pop up in your post)
3. Click text link + insert
You are done.
2. 4 Different Kinds of Affiliate Links
Create 4 different kinds of affiliate links – text links, image links, CTA (call to action) links and info blocks.
In our example above we highlighted the text we were looking for, you can also do a product search on a keyword or ASIN number.
Text link – just follow the steps outlined above.
Image link:
- Click the EasyAzon button
- Click Image and choose your image to use
CTA link:
- Click the EasyAzon button
- Click CTA link and choose your settings
Info block:
- Click the EasyAzon button
- Click Info block and choose your settings
This Is How the 4 Different Links Will Look
You also have the option of making all these links pop up, a great feature.

3. “Add to Cart” Option
“Add to Cart” Amazon option. You can set the products to be added to the Amazon cart. By doing this you will get a 90-day cookie, instead of the normal 24 hours on the product added. This can be done either in the main settings or with each individual link.
4. Coordinate Country Specific Amazon Links
EasyAzon has a built in localization option, that automatically provides country-specific affiliate links.
So say that you are located in the USA, but you have a visitor from the UK. You then want to send that visitor to Amazon.co.uk NOT Amazon.com. They will be purchasing from the Amazon UK and you want to make sure you get credit for that.
You want to sign up with Amazon associate programs in the countries you get traffic from. Go check your Google Analytics and see where your traffic is coming from and sign up with the associate programs in those countries that are available.
You then add the necessary info on the EasyAzon setting page and enable the feature. This way you will not miss out on commission from other countries.
Sign up for the Amazon affiliate program in each country and add in your tracking id under the right country.
Currently, these countries are offered: United States, Canada, China, France, Germany, India (must be resident), Italy, Japan, Spain and the United Kingdom.
There are a ton of countries though that you can optimize with link localization. So say that you have a visitor from the Bahamas, he will now be directed to the amazon.com site. If you have a visitor from Sweden they will be directed to the amazon.co.uk because that’s their best option.
5 More Reasons WHY You Should Use EasyAzon if You Monetize with Amazon
Monetize your blog – Button right within your posts and pages, you don’t need to leave your WordPress blog to monetize it.
Images – Sometimes it can be tricky to know what images you can use. With EasyAzon the images that you are allowed to use are right there within your blog.
Prices – You are not allowed to add a price to a review for example since the price might change. With EasyAzon ASIN numbers are used and the displayed info adjust when there are changes made to the product. The info blocks will display current accurate prices.
Pop up blocks and info blocks – Will provide helpful information so that your reader can make a purchasing decision.
Maximize commission earnings – I don’t like leaving money on the table and I’m sure you don’t either this plugin help you maximize the earnings of your Amazon monetized site.

Tanks, Vicky, this looks really useful.
Is the $47 a one-off, or recurring payment? Also, do they offer support within this price?
Vicky says
Hi David,
Great questions.
The $47 is a one time fee.
Yes, support is included. I’ve only used the email support but it’s really good they get back with you within hours.

ToveL says
Loved to hear about EasyAzon4. Never heard about it and thankful to you who gave me this opportunity to chose this plugin.
I have a question. I already have too many plugins on my site. Will this new plugin slow down my site? That’s important for me to know.
Everything that is easier is interesting for me.
Tove
Vicky says
Hi Tove,
I have not noticed that this plugin would slow down my site at all. It is very light weight.
A great plugin that will save you a lot of time!
Let me know if you try it out,

steven says
Hi Vicky,
I have been looking for something like this I was using geo riot formerly genius link but had issues I got my American friends to see if directed them to the same product and some occasions it didnt.
Does this have the same problem and is that a one off payment?
Vicky says
Hi,
Not sure I understand the problem, did those plugins not direct to the right product?
I haven’t had any issues with that, you can actually decide what product you can direct to…
It is a one time payment, yes.

Jackie says
Hey Vicky
This is great timing.

Thanks

It’s a great tool to use when monetizing with Amazon,

Audra says
Hi, Vicky. Seems like an awesome add-on. It is a bit time consuming manually adding products and links to your website. This plug in will definitely be in my ‘mental bookmarks’ for when I’m ready to use it. Thanks so much because I am usually the one sharing info about neat plugins! 🙂
Vicky says
Hi Audra,
It is a great add on when monetizing with amazon! Saves you a lot of time!

Greer says
Anytime you see the opportunity to make more money its an eye popper. This page does just that. I am a babe in the business but I tell you what, you have certainly given me something to think about. a one-time $47 fee is peanuts when its going to translate into more money in the long run. More over, you provide such detailed information. This is great work,
Thank you
Vicky says
Hello,
Thank you!
It is a great investment! Think about what your time is worth… it will save you a lot of money.
Think about the extra commission that can be earned by taking advantage of commissions from other countries… it all ads up.
Well worth the one time fee of $47

Ron says
Hi Vicky
Great , informative review. I just read your “Friday with Vicky” blog explaining how important the correct way to write a review is, then I read this and it all became so clear, so again -thanks .
Quick question -I’ve read about Easyazon before and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that this is the way to go-my problem is I am a starter member with Wealthy Affiliate at this point in time and am using the siterubix platform to start a website which I wish to eventually link to Amazon.
Now as a starter member I can’t add plugins .
I live in South Africa so will I be able to make money from Amazon without installing the plugin ?
In other words can I start off by doing this manually and when I start making money and become a premium member at W.A then I can purchase the plugin and all should be fine, but in the mean time can I link to other countries in a manual fashion so as not to leave money on the table.
Ron
Vicky says
Hi Ron,
When I first started out I had no idea about EasyAzon and did it the “hard way” lol, it is very possible to make money submitting links manually.
EasyAzon just makes the whole process a lot easier.
Not sure what plugins Siterubix allow but there are other free plugins that can help with the integration of international links as well.
Keep me updated on how things goes Ron,
Vicky
Nadia says
Hi Vicky,
Thanks for the EasyAzon write-up! I am interested in purchasing it, but I have a question for you…
Have you seen any significant increase in orders since you’ve started using geolocation? Approximately what percentage of your sales comes from somewhere other than the Amazon.com program, such as Amazon.co.uk and the other countries?
Vicky says
Hi Nadia,
Thank you for your question,
This is totally due to the traffic you get, the majority of my traffic is still from the US. But I do get some traffic from mainly Canada and the UK and yes I’ve made commissions from these two countries due to the plugin, enough to cover the cost of it 🙂
It’s a great tool that will save you a ton of time!
Vicky
isaac says
Great review Vicky. I’m impressed with the plugin, especially the localization and pop-up features. I’ve bought the plugin (using your link =p) and true enough, there are annoying upsell right away lol!
Vicky says
Hi Isaac,
It’s been such a time saver for me! Yes, with the localization the plugin pays for itself for many affiliates.
Let me know what you think, when you’ve been using it. Thanks for using my link 🙂
Vicky
isaac says
I’ve played around with it and found it to be quite nice. I just would like to know more about the localization feature.
In the plugin, we can set the localized products where we search for different stuffs on different countries.
But when we are putting the links in our post, we can only search the product name and the plugin will insert the links.
So my question is does the first step (localized products) is needed? I can’t see how I can use the information into my blog posts….
Vicky says
Hi Isaac,
When the plugin insert the links they are based on the ASIN number.
Did you sign up with Amazon in the countries that you get traffic from, and inserted the details by each country section in the plugin? I get traffic and earn commission from not only US but Canada and the UK as well. What the plugin does is direct the visitor to the “right” country related Amazon. So I would sign up with Amazon in the countries that you get traffic from.
Does that help?
Vicky
Isaac says
Hi Vicky. It’s doing all right. I only sign up for UK and Canada since most of my visitors come from there.
After using it for a few weeks, it helped me to reduce time to copy and put in links. And the real-time price helped to give my site’s visitors up-to-date prices. Definitely a worthwhile investment =)
Vicky says
Hi Isaac,
Glad you are liking the EasyAzon plugin. Yes just that feature alone to be able to display accurate prices for your visitors is worth the plugin. Saving time is just a bonus 😉
Happy you are enjoying it!
Vicky
Garen says
Hey Vicky,
I’ve been using EasyAzon for several years now. I have been pretty happy with the plugin. It’s certainly very easy to use and also cuts down on the manual method which can take a ton of time.
I have noticed a problem with EasyAzon though. When, you have popups enabled I have noticed that with some sites it doesn’t show up correctly. It’s been a known issue for quite sometime though.
What is your experience with customer support? Personally, I have been pretty happy with them. I had a question on inserting affiliate links in the comment field. All I had to do was click “insert markup code” and I was allowed to insert that in the comment field.
I did go ahead and purchase the $67 dollar version of the plugin. The reason being is because I buy and sell websites for a living so paying that extra $20 is totally worth it for me. It adds a $67 value to every site I install it on, which allows me to sell it for more money.
Vicky says
Hi Garen,
I must admit that EasyAzon is one of my favorite tools to use when it comes to monetizing with Amazon, saves a ton of time.
I haven’t had the issue with pop-ups so can’t really comment on that. I’ve had to contact support a few times and they’ve always replied in a timely matter. For what you get I would say that this plugin is definitely worth the price. Just to be able to insert the images and correct price is a game changer.
Appreciate the feedback Garen!

This is a product that I need, it will help me a lot in marketing products with amazon.
