3. A link is generated – after the reader clicks on it, they will be taken to a special page on Pushpig to sign-up. After they have, they will be returned to your site. In the future, they will receive an email whenever the author publishes a new book. The email contains a link to Amazon and uses your Amazon Affiliate ID, so you get the affilate money from Amazon!
