Great thread and very helpful. I think I am catching on. I have one question though. Is this the same as "cloaking" a link? I still get a little confused with some of the terminology so I guess I could use a little clarification.
If this is not the same as cloaking could someone please explain this process for me? Or should this be in another post to ask...let me know if I should start a different post and I will.

Thanks y'all (from a still aspiring "grasshopper")
Yes, unfortunately I do remember the show, even if I was but a mere child.

Blessings,

Whichever you want.

I'd say something like: Anxious to read awesome yoga book? Then Click here to get your copy"

I then create a link for "Click Here to get your copy" (I like to make it obvious it is a link) and for your site you would make the link something like: "www.sitename.com/books/awesomeyogabook.php"

What the customer sees on the page is the "click here to get your copy" as a link. When they mouseover the status bar will show: "www.sitename.com/books/awesomeyogabook.php"
And they will go to awesome yogo book page on Amazon through your link.

And yes, this is a way to "cloak" your affiliate link.

Thanks so much Nelson. I think I've got it. I like your idea about saving in notepad. I do that myself for my links, it sure helps for saving time and looking things up. Great advice.

Thanks again,
Christine
