We have an account with Affiliate Shop. Here are the instructions from the Mountain Rose Herb people:

If you prefer to use a text link on your page rather than post a banner, please use the code below:

http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/index.php?AID=130917

If you want your audience to be directed to a specific product or a particular page within the Mountain Rose Herbs website, rather than the home page, please follow the instructions below:

Use code: http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=######&Redirect=/(enter page you would like to link)

When you insert the "link to" page, please do not include the entire domain such as: http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/aroma/ess.html

What you will need to insert is the specific page only or sub-domain such as "aroma/ess.html" So, a correct link will look like this:

http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=######&Redirect=/aroma/ess.html

This will take the viewer directly to our essential oils page, for example.

Please do not forget to replace the number symbols with your own affiliate number!

Our affiliate ID is 130917

When we list our ingredients, we should automatically be linking those to the affiliate site if possible as described above.

We should also probably mention somewhere on the site that we use affiliate programs to help support the community driven site :)
