Backlinks to a Kindle Page

6 replies
Is it against Amazon TOS to build high PR backlinks to your Kindle page with your kindle ebook on it ? I know they would not use it for their rankings, but it might help with google page rankings. Anyway, would amazon care ? Not sure if their bot would think it is a paid review or something...

Thanks for comments and your expertise.

    I wouldn't worry about "high PR" backlinks, since Google devalued PR as a ranking factor a few years ago.

    Beyond that, it depends on how and where you build those links.

    Neal Patel just published a nice article on safe ways to build links:

      It's fiction. The story features an email marketer who meets this stranger. The stranger buys the marketer's product and likes it so much, he starts stalking the poor guy. The story ends when he sets up a Facebook Fanpage devoted to the marketer's product.

          So very sorry. I thought you were asking about the book in the signature of reply #3. Cut me a huge slice of humble pie.
