Amazon can't convert more than 1% from my links... so they blame me and cut me off. Yeah right.


From Amazon:

Hello,

The traffic you have recently referred converted at a rate of less than 1% - which leads us to believe that you are artificially generating sessions on the Amazon site and not actively referring users to the same. Since according to section 27 of the EU Associates Programme Participation Requirements a conversion rate of less than one percent by itself is a violation of the Operating Agreement, we have the right to terminate the agreement immediately.  You can find the complete text of the Associates Program Operating Agreement, including Participation Requirements, via this link:


We hereby terminate the EU Associates Programme Operating Agreement with immediate effect. As a consequence, we will close your account and insist that you remove all Amazon content from your site(s) immediately.  Moreover, because you are using the Associates Program in ways in which it was never intended, you will not receive further payment. Any other accounts you may have or may open in the future may be closed and advertising fees withheld.

Warmest regards,


Dinesh
