Amazon links

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi,

    I’ve just copied over my blog from blogspot, you can imagine why anyone would do that, and, ok, I can’t do adsense, but much of the humor and meaning of the blog is contained in the Amazon links. Is this a problem? If I remove the links, the blog is flat.

    Yes, I can arrange to host elsewhere, I already have support for that, just didn’t want to. Is it going to be necessary?

    Thanks.

    Michael

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    G’day,

    Affiliate marketing blogs: Blogs with the primary purpose of driving traffic to affiliate programs and get-rich-quick schemes (“Make six figures from home!!”, “20 easy steps to top profits!!”, etc). This includes multi-level marketing (MLM) blogs and pyramid schemes. To be clear, people writing their own original book, movie or game reviews and linking them to Amazon, or people linking to their own products on Etsy do NOT fall into this category. http://en.wordpress.com/types-of-blogs/

    Free hosted WordPress.com blogs cannot be used to drive traffic to third party sites (section 2 – 5th bullet) http://en.wordpress.com/tos/

    No blogger initiated advertising of any kind and most particularity of any if the get rich quick schemes is allowed on free hosted WordPress.com blogs > http://en.support.wordpress.com/advertising/ If a blog has been found to be in breach of the WordPress.com Terms of Service, it will be suspended. http://en.support.wordpress.com/suspended-blogs/
