Time to try New Avenues
Unfortunataley I am on hold for a few, until I can get a new company to advertise with. Due to lack of sales within 180 days, Amazon will not let me post articles with their products. So I will look to other companies.
Keeping my chin up and a positive attitude. As I start the process again to hook up with companies I can advertise music gear. Along with getting better knowledge of ways to Demo products.
Moving Forward
Fortunately I have 56 articles under my belt of product review, on various guitar gear. Which will look good to other companies. And continue training here at WA. Staying hopeful, as I hydroplane through the crap.
Success is getting knocked down, keeping a smile on your face as you pick yourself up and dust yourself off. And try again, and again, and again. When you give up on yourself, that is when you fail.
Back to the Drawing Board
As I go back and try again, I will be looking more ideas of products and services to include in my blog. Such as adding online instructors, and broadening my blog to include technical gear such as home studio equipment.
Things I was avoiding before, could prove to be profitable. And completely change the strategy and direction of my marketing business. Here's to success, and the process of getting there. -Mike

I like your idea of instructions. Have you checked Jaaxy for search results?
We were very surprised that people were looking for instructions on our niche products. And they would rather look online than store the instructions somewhere.
Glad your are flexible and looking into other options. It is through closed doors that others open.
We wish you much success as you continue on.
Google ad sense was directing my traffic to sweetwater ads. another music store. rather than buying through me they were logging on to sweetwater. ... GRRRR
just a bump in the road. a little set back but there are bigger and better options. Thinking of a youtube channel and do product review.
That's what usually happens when obstacles are encountered. They lead to finding much better solutions that probably would not have been tried.
Good for you. It sounds like you are going in a good direction.
You'll land on your feet, Mike! Bozos and Amazon are full of it, imho! You have a GREAT asset with all those posts for any Affiliate Group with common sense, and it will only get better for you, my friend!

Thanks Jeff. Just a bump in the road. I need to look in to Youtube product review videos
A very fine place to start, Mike! Let me know when your channel is up, PM me a link and I will subscribe!

You have great spirit, Mike.
I am a musician as well. I took a quick look at your site.
Would you like some feedback? If not that's perfectly OK.
:-)

my last 2 blogs i wasn't allowed to use their pictures, but I could use their links. previous posts had pics and links
They will allow you to resubmit when you get more traffic.
This is a mistake many newbies make, do not apply to Amazon until you have some steady traffic. As little as 100 visits per day should get you started getting sales before your 180 days runs out, not so applying from the very start where it can be six months before you get enough traffic.

Things may not have worked out with Amazon this time around but I'm positive you came out with tons of experience that would prove beneficial moving forward.
As you also said now you can relook ideas or opportunities that you avoided before. Benefits may actually lie in those directions.
There are lessons in silver linings in every experience. It's all a part of our growth.
You're still on the road to success, the route may just have changed a bit.
Wishing you all the best.
looking ahead. and new options. Thankyou Roberta
