Multiple affiliate accounts under one person without permission .
Unusual traffic patterns or links pointing to banned content .
Amazon policy changes, always monitor updates to avoid surprises .
What You Can Do

*Multiple affiliate accounts under one person without permission.
Does this mean that if I have three websites in different niches, I cannot add Amazon affiliate links to the other two after being approved with the first site?
You will need to share with them a list of sites you intent to show their links. You can do this in your settings. Or you can just click below.

No, you do not need to apply separately for each website in your Amazon Associates account. Once your first site is approved, you can add additional websites to your existing account. Amazon allows you to manage multiple sites under a single Associates account, provided each site complies with their policies.
They rejected me the first attempt and I haven't a clue why but I did not give up an reapplied. Was accepted the second attempt.
Never give up.
