So after spending quite a bit of time setting up my new blog, i get rejected by amazon -_-. Who basically said they wont allow the domain name "iphone4deals.info" because of trademark. Which i can understand but now i need to get a new domain name and i'm clueless on what to choose.

I'm basically using the "shezblog" method, blogging about iphones. I have done keyword research and can't find any keywords that would work without including a trademark word (apple, iphone, etc).

So should i ditch amazon and keep the domain? Or should i change the domain to something else? If so, can anyone please give me some ideas/suggestions about the domain name (i'm really stuck)?

Any help if much appreciated, thanks :)

Amazon is easiest aff network to enter imo. I used most simple joomla blog (it's even non-english one) with only few copypasted articles and got accepted without any questions. I said that I'll promote their offers at other blogs and use SEO to get traffic. If you need link for my blog pm me.

Thanks, but i dont really want to setup up and pay for another blog just to win them over, is their any other way like using blogger or wordpress.com blog?
 
What if you just get a second domain, redirect it to the iphone4deals blog(could even try a cc.co freebie). Then use the second domain in your application to them, after accepted forget about the second domain and just promote the original iphone4deals one.

I am not sure but doing a search I found this:

Code: 
https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/blogger

If not already an Associate, you can create an Associates account directly on Blogger. If you are an Associate, set up your Blogger account with your Associate ID and start earning.

So I *guess* you can join through blogger. Not 100% sure.
 
Make a blogger/wordpress sub, they approve anything apart from trademarkes/race/hate.
 
So say if i would crete a wordpress.com blog and say thats the one im using, would i then have to change it back on my amazon profile after they approve or could i just leave it?

Have to agree, it's one of the easiest to get accepted to. Just buy another .info domain with no trademarks in it and use it to apply. A couple of minutes to buy the domain, and a few minutes to set-up a WP install with a couple of articles!
 
You should have more than one domain&blog. It's good practice to keep at least one white-hat lookin blog to impress CPA and aff network reviewers.
 
Yeah i know but this is my first blog so i just want to see if i can make any money first before investing into other blogs :P

You will get approved with blogger and or wordpress subs.
 
Just use a general name instead. That way when the next hot phone comes out it will already fit with your site.
