Amazon.com will make donations to your favorite charity if you use their site "smile.amazon.com", however I am so accustomed to using "amazon.com" that I usually forget about the "smile" option. Thus, I'd like to force a redirect to the "smile" site without having to remember to do it.

You could bookmark this website and add a keyword (e.g. ama) to that bookmark. Then you can type the keyword to go to that website.
