Thanks!
Regarding the affiliate links -- I think this is a fine idea, and have no problem with MR making some money to support itself.
One thing, though -- on the occasion that I post a discount, I usually use the format
http://amzn.com/{ASIN}
which is an internal shortlink service run by Amazon, and redirects to the product page of the named ASIN.
There are also other links, semantic ones like:
Which I like because it is easier to read/post/handle.
The amzn.com domain supports affiliate links too, so make sure you include them.
Not many people even realize Amazon provides this shortlinker -- in fact, it is so unknown I have had to explain it to the mods because they thought it was a generic URL shortener... |
Well then, it's time for you to stop using Amazon shortcuts as tMR does support the FULL Amazon link. That would solve the problem of Alex having to cater to shortcuts.
As for easier to read, irrelevant.
As for easier to post, nope. It's easier to copy the FULL URL from the browser window and post that.
