Amazon has given its sellers other reason to smile. No one has ever thought that having the followers on social media platforms like YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram can take the Amazon sellers at the newer level of Amazon competition. Amazon has brought a new program for its sellers that allows them to build their presence strongly on Amazon.

Of which program we are talking about?

We are here talking about the Amazon Influencer Program. This program is an extension of Amazon Associates program that yields the commision to the Amazon sellers when any user makes a purchase through posts and URLs shared on the social media.
But there is the difference between these two programs. The Amazon Influencer Program is an exclusive program that the Amazon sellers can utilize only when they receive an acceptance from Amazon while every Amazon seller can utilize the membership of the Amazon Associate programs.
Initially, this Influencer program was started with Youtube accounts but Amazon has extended it to Facebook and Instagram in it.
