WP Commission (https://wpcommission.com) is a WP plugin which helps influencers maximize affiliate revenue. The plugin makes sure all Amazon.com links are tagged with an affiliate tag - and we even follow, expand, and tag shortened amzn.to links as well.
Additionally, we provide a shortcode which creates a carousel displaying products that have been linked to in prior posts. We've found that showing a pretty carousel can lead to substantial revenue improvements, especially when on the home page of a blog.
WPC charges a token fee to keep the servers running, but anyone doing a few thousand in revenue should see a net profit from the service. At the end of the day, we're publishers who want to help quality content creators monetize so they can support themselves.
