No URL in Amazon Profile?
Apparently, Amazon.com no longer permits you to list your URL in your user profile -or something like that, as their policies are ridiculously convoluted.
Yesterday, I posted a book review and it was rejected for no rational reason. They sent me a form letter, listing the various reasons a review might be rejected -profanity, irrelevance, too short, too long, etc. None of these applied to me, so I inquired why this was so.
To their credit, I got a quick reply. The reason was that I had an URL listed in my user profile, which is against the rules. But when I went to edit my profile, I saw two sections that seem to ask for your URL -"Signature" and "Website." Are they saying you can't list an URL in one or both of these sections :confused:
I tried in vain to locate the Amazon discussion boards to ask this question.
It's not really a huge issue for me, as I don't get any monetized traffic from my Amazon URL, but I just find the whole thing bizarre. What could you possible put in a signature or website box except a website address?
