First and foremost, realize that NO ads will be approved until the site no longer violates policy and it has been submitted for reconsideration. Reply to the email they sent you and politely ask what you can do to make your site compliant. I have found them to be very accomodating and now have very few problems getting Amazon review sites approved for AdWords.

Build the site as an ecommerce site and make use of star ratings and user-submitted reviews.

Also (and people really overlook this), promoting a BRANDABLE site goes a long way. Your domain name is not brandable so Google is not going to take you seriously. Put a serious site together with some serious work and content. Look at the top sites in your niche. Does your site stack up favorably with them? I will venture a guess and say it does not.

Check out my other thread: Google Hates You and Your Affiliate Review Site and This is Why...

It is VERY relevant.

When you submit it for re-approval, you should receive an email back from them that you can reply to. It is how I have always done it.

Good deal. If I remember right, the reply you get should allow you to reply via email. I haven't had to correspond with them in months at this point so details have become hazy but if I remember right, that's how it goes.

Could it possibly be because your Privacy Policy has this line in it:

Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance
We are in compliance with the requirements of COPPA (Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act), we do not collect any information from anyone under 13 years of age. Our website, products and services are all directed to people who are at least 13 years old or older.


You are selling wine coolers and 13 years old is no where near the age of majority in the U.S. and most countries that Adsense serves ads.


I'm new here, but this is the only thing on your site that seemed strange.
