Hi Guys,
I received an email from Amazon Affiliates today. They told me that my account is closed due to violation of TOS. The reason given is displaying their customer?s review in a manner that is not allowed.
What I did on my websites was I quoted a few Amazon customers? reviews (few sentences) and with a ?read more? link with my affiliate link.
I did not aware that this is not allowed in their TOS. When I first started IM, I read some ebooks (can?t remember the names) and follow exactly the tutorials given. Quoting Amazon customers? review is one of the suggestions from the ebook. I don?t blame anyone but myself. I should have been more careful in my learning.
I am sharing this with those who are doing Amazon affiliate. Hopefully you guys do not make the same mistake as I did.
What I am planning to do is
If there?s anyone with similar experience, I would appreciate your advices on how to get back my amazon affiliate account. Thank you very much.

What I am planning to do is
- Remove all Amazon customers reviews on my websites
- Email Amazon affiliate customer service team for appeal. Hopefully they are willing to take a look and reinstate my account.

I did the same thing on my new amazon based site.
