"Build links to any page at Amazon.com except for search-result pages. (For those, use the Link to Search Results tool above.)"

That doesn't seem to do it. What seems the best way to get a direct link to a product using my amazon aff link?

Thanks,

You actually CAN build text links that qualify as direct links using the Amazon pages, but a simpler approach is to use this:

[amazon.com...]

It's not documented on the Amazon site but the old-time Associates all use it. I learned it from them. Put the ASIN or the ISBN of the product in place of "insertASINorISBNhere" and your Associate ID where it says, and you are good to go. The "ref=nosim" means that the landing page will be the product page, NOT a page showing the product and a dozen similar things. Just take that section out if you prefer the display of similar products.

Good luck.
