[METHOD] YouTube Slideshows with Amazon products

^
Guys, I'm With you,
But I'm quite worried about youtube rules and like what OP said they deleted all his videos out of nothing!
Also what about Amazon rules too, I read that it is against their TOS
I’m 60% thinking it was because his description got reported. It was misleading.
If you go the drip feed route and no misleading description you shouldn’t have a issue.

Plus don’t tell anyone which ones are yours. People will snitch.

Do you means it was because he added "Special discount on PRODUCT" and people got angry and reported him to youtube?

I don't know seems high unlikely, because has has different channels all banned at once, plus the normal buyer ( most of them) wouldn't have the slightest idea on how to report on youtube " i think".
But I agree his description is a problem, sooner or later amazon will catch him and banned him for doing that.

what is your plan? regarding uploading count daily and description wise?

Look at this post in page 6 from other member here :

This is what youtube sent to my email after they deleted my video - again I uploaded only 1 slideshow video about 35 seconds and in the description I linked to blog:

As you may know, our Community Guidelines describe which content we allow – and don’t allow – on YouTube. Your video "PowMax Neck & Back Massager,Massager with Heat Shoulder,Kneading Massage,Foot Massager Pillow" was flagged for review. Upon review, we’ve determined that it violates our guidelines. We’ve removed it from YouTube and assigned a Community Guidelines strike, or temporary penalty, to your account.


Video content restrictions
It's not okay to post large amounts of untargeted, unwanted, or repetitive content to YouTube. If the main purpose of your content is to drive people off of YouTube and onto another site, it will likely violate our spam policies. In addition, misleading descriptions, tags, titles, or thumbnails designed to increase views are not allowed. Tags should only be placed in the appropriate tag section and not in the description. Learn more.


The impact of strikes
This is the first strike applied to your account. We understand that users seldom intend to violate our policies. That’s why strikes don’t last forever – this strike will expire in three months. However, it’s important to remember that additional strikes could prevent you from posting content to YouTube or even lead to your account being terminated.


How you can respond
If you believe this was a mistake, we’d like to hear from you. Please follow both of these steps as simply deleting the video won’t resolve the strike on your account.

  • The next time you sign in you will be asked to acknowledge this strike on your account.
  • If you would like to appeal this strike, please submit this form. Our team will thoroughly review your appeal and will contact you again very soon


Sincerely,

I’ll find out soon. It’s gambling either way.
I’m going to look for 6+ year simple review videos,To see how long they make their videos. I might target a 2.5 minute area.
 
hi, i'm interested in give a try with this method, i have just one question regarding the amazon account:

a) if amazon ban my account, they will ban only the affiliate account or the entire account, i mean, even my account to buy (with my current gift card balance) will be banned?
b) can i do this with a new amazon account and receive the payment on my (old) personal account ?

Its is how he created a spammy title and how he created his videos he used the Youtube slideshow feature which got this video auto deleted by Youtube.I use microsoft powerpoint and record my screen with camtasia to create the videos.With amazon just don't do any incentives to make people buy the product for example" if you buy this nerf gun on amazon you will win a free xbox"Don't do this.
 
To anyone who want to try this method i advise you to be careful especially with your amzn acc.I used to get banned from amazon because of this method (at that time i do open a thread in bhw asking opinion and solution from other members lol..) , yeah it's a great method and making me a lot of profits but also risky.

Before you try to promote any amzn products with this method and also do not intend to add your youtube channel url into your amazon profile dashboard (i suggest to you do not put your yt channel which is only full with this kind of slideshow videos if you prefer to make it the way op described earlier, it's clearly amzn does not like it, and ban hammer will hit you if they see it) , anyway make sure you have 1 website that focus on general niche and try to make it look legit by having a lot of general articles.(mix it with review, infomation, guide)

And try to make a landing page by making a post into your site for each products you r trying to promote (i prefer review post and top 10 post style) and direct the link from your yt video to this post, but if you have a legit youtube channel with a great videos (not like slideshow kind of videos) then you may proceed to use direct linking from youtube to amzn, but make sure that channel already been added into your amazn dashboard profile or otherwise you r risking for losing your amzn acc.

Now this is the way i use and still using it till now, but if you have a custom php script that pull datas from amazn and automaticlly make a landing page by just using the asin numbers it will become more easier and fast, some time i just direct it from youtube to my automate landing page as it still in my website domain name, if amazn check and see it they may think that landing page was refering from one of my website post that already published in my web site (averagely 200 post in my site and usually i do put a link that go to my custom lp), as long as the landing page using amzn api and it still in my website domain name which i have a full of control then it's ok).

but OP Never used a prelander and hes amazon acc still alive
 
but it doesn't mean it is going to be safe using that way.

Again, someone mentioned this channel and posted this earlier in the thread:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZKIj0tu24j0hnEz7WnkRKQ/featured

If you notice the last video was uploaded over 1 year ago, all with direct links to Amazon. Channel is still up. I believe the method can still work. But the key is quality over quantity. Put forth an effort to make decent quality videos and you lower your risk of getting banned. If the channel above can do it, so can I.

Well He could be lucky but sooner or later his account would be gone.
Any network does verify the traffic source when the earnings are going strong. And Amazon wouldn't love to see spammy videos linking to them.

if you create a high quality content and people love it will be ok. but did you notice why that channel only have a few video and never been updated anymore? because the uploader aware that his channel is at risk if he upload a lot more video similar to the existing. so i think he is just playing safe.

You can't possibly know why the channel owner hasn't uploaded anymore unless it's your channel. Besides, look at how many views the videos have. One of the videos has 97,000 views and another one has 74,000 views. That's over 171,000 views for only 2 videos. The uploader probably made good commissions from those 2 videos alone. For that channel in particular, it doesn't seem necessary to upload a lot of vids.
