Just in case anybody didn't know using affiliate links will be trouble when trying to rank in google. I tested it out myself when I created a free weebly website. I was wondering why my website wasn't showing in the search engine after I used webmaster tools and google analytics even a week later it didn't.
example: Lets say you put "click here" and add your affiliate link inside of that for a hyperlink people won't see it but somehow the search engine does.
solution: All I did was shorten my affiliate link with a url shortner before I inserted it into the "click here" button and all of a sudden my weebly site showed up in google the same day. That shows that google hate affiliate links, I guess they whether for us to use adwords and in my opinion i feel that adwords is a waste of time if you can make money without it.
All you have to do is follow that and make sure you index your website with google webmaster tools including submitting your sitemap in the webmaster tools. I also added analytics and all data won't show for a subdomain but it will show your traffic also weebly can track your stats also thats why I like it more then blogger. I'm sure you have to shorten your affiliate links there also.
