Hi All,

I sent them my new Affiliate Amazon store that i purchased and the USA and Canada Amazon accepted it. However Amazon UK im i am having problems. Can you guys tell me exactly what they are saying i am doing wrong with my website?

Hello,

I have reviewed of your application to become an Amazon Associate, and visited the website where you planned to advertise for Amazon.co.uk.

We found that the URL [INSERT URL] redirects viewers to Amazon.co.uk, which violates our Operating Agreement. Redirecting to our website infringes on our trademark and causes misunderstandings with our customers.

Because of this, we can not accept your application at this time. As a result of this decision, you will no longer be able to access your Amazon Associates account.

We encourage you to resubmit your application once your site no longer redirects to Amazon.co.uk.

Thank you for your interest in the Associates Programme.

Hello Again,

Can you please be a little more specific as I am still lost. I have read what a redirecting link is Amazons Operating Agreement many times now and I still cant put my finger on it.

Redirecting Link" means a link that sends users indirectly to an Amazon Site via an intermediate site or webpage and without requiring the user to click on a link or take some other affirmative action on that intermediate site or webpage.

Maybe i need to put a logo "powered by Amazon" near the discount finder?

If you can just give me hint of some sort. If you cant I believe it maybe some kind of work policy which I understand.


Hello,

I understand your confusion regarding the redirecting of link.

In this case, please know that, when selecting Amazon.co.uk Associates Programme participants, we try to determine why a customer would seek out the website in question, review the topic or content of the website, and subsequently follow a link to Amazon.co.uk. The programme isn't set up to simply advertise Amazon.co.uk and third party links within websites, or make mini Amazon websites.

Because of this, we can not accept your application at this time. We encourage you to resubmit your application once your site no longer redirects to Amazon.co.uk.

Thank you for your interest in the Associates Programme.

Warmest regards,


Can you guys help me out here? What do i need to change. And why doesnt anybody ever post their website on here?
