Forums - Website Topics - Amazon Widget

So we have an Amazon widget on Vgchartz now.  Obviously I can't force you to use it, but if you have an amazon account already and use it to buy games,  Vgchartz will get part of the money back for things like upgrading servers, and other costs. The more people that use it, the higher the return rate per buy.

Wait, how do we use this Amazon.com widget? Because I buy everything (except food of course) off of Amazon... and does it count for things other than games?



I think you just have to click on it from Vgchartz so that Amazon knows you came from VGC. I assume it only applies to games...but no idea.

Who decides what games are on the widget, you or them? It'd probably work out better for both of you if you could tailor the widget to games really popular amongst the people here (Okami Wii rather than Ghost Squad, things like that).



^ Yeah, maybe sort of Like Gametrailers and their marketplace? That would be intersting..

Wow, I am so glad I decided to check vgchartz instead of going to amazon... I was literally 5minutes away from buying a few things

Well, I clicked through VGC and made my purchases, so you guys damn well better get your money.

It might be a good idea to add the amazon product links to "buy it now" in the games database and beside the games on the weekly charts... I'm sure it wouldn't take much space...
