Please help me on how to get approval for amazon affiliate account? My 4 account has been suspended on amazon.com affiliate.
 
Your accounts were rejected or you got banned after the approval?

It's pretty easy, buy an aged domain and put some regular niche content and then some good unique reviews, drive few sales, and you are approved.
 
I generated 80 sales without any backlinks. Commission was $56 and then I got an email which says you did not meet any criteria I followed all the rules except content guidelines.

Well, that EXCEPT is the problem.
Not sure if they are going to accept you anymore or you'll remain permanently banned, but still you can fix it and try again.
There is no other work around.

Write a letter to support. Let them explain the reason in more detail.

I got my account blocked and asked for details. They told me that there was an image on the page that they didn't like. I got my site back after 3 days.
 
You should've contacted support when first account got banned instead of creating 3 more accounts. Now they know that you're a habitual offender.
 
To get the first sales, the quickest thing is to use google ads
 
Content guidelines are something Amazon is really serious about. Fix what you're doing wrong, try apologizing and see if they get it back up.
Or just start afresh and make sure you do things by the rule book to avoid getting banned.
 
You're saying that you got 4 accounts suspended on Amazon's affiliate program.

Were you doing something that would trigger a suspension?

One common way people's accounts get suspended or deleted by Amazon is actually quite innocent.

Believe it or not. WordPress has this feature where it automatically adds a "noreferrer" tag to links that open in a new window.

So if you put "target blank" for your Amazon affiliate links, Amazon will still record the total number of sales, but since the referer is hidden, it can't track it back to you.

I know people who have lost hundreds of dollars of commissions because of this.

And the worst part? Amazon closes your account because you passed the 180-day trial window technically without making a sale.

Pretty sad, right?

And the good news is that this is easy to fix. Just make sure your Amazon affiliate links don't open up in a new tab.

If you can't do that and you insist on these links showing up in new tabs, just police your code closely.

Make sure these tags don't get the "noreferrer" attribute added to them automatically by WordPress.

On these grounds, you may be getting suspended for other reasons by Amazon, and you might wanna do further research into it.
