Default Problem with Amazon Associates..

Just signed up with Amazon Associates, and my site is already approved. But I'm having some trouble getting my clicks to show in the user-panel (Orders Summary) in Amazon. I've clicked my textlink a bunch of times, but it still shows "Clicks: 0".

I have copied the HTML exactly as it's generated, and I've pasted it in the HTML-editor in Wordpress, but I still don't see my own clicks.

I'm worried that my links don't get through and that I won't earn anything from my affiliate-link..

What am I doing wrong?

I really appreciate your advice.

I'm not sure since I'm not signed up with them, but I guess clicking your own links is considered bad behavior by amazon and thus filtered out.

If you really want to test it, I think loading your site with an anonymizer like anonymouse will trick their system.

You may have to wait 24 hours for the clicks to show up on Amazon's counters.
