What is SiteStripe?

SiteStripe lets you build your Amazon Associates links right from the Amazon page itself. Once enabled, SiteStripe will appear at the top of every Amazon page and provides quick and easy access for building and sharing links. SiteStripe is a convenient alternative to using some of the Associates Central linking and reporting tools, without needing to visit Associates Central.
