I'm wondering about your use of the singular "link". Unless you're in an affiliate program that doesn't allow you to link to individual products, you want to be as specific and targeted as possible. General banner ads, for example, have very low conversion as affiliate links, probably because you have to get people to buy, not just click. Give customers enough information about a product that when they click on its link they're actually thinking about buying it.
