Ah that's awesome to hear Phil, keep up the hard work!

Yeeeeah, gotta' love it when your work starts paying off in dividends, huh Philipp! :-))

Nice work.

Yeah Yahoo and bing have different rules for ranking content as well as a trust factor that is different to Google.

I was on page 1 of Google with none of my content ranking on bing until recently my trust factor increased and I got a massive boost to traffic from that.

Like you said as well outside influences can happen such as an event or TV advert.

I use "All in One Schema Rich Snippets". You can not only use their rating systems for reviews but you can also use it for rich snippets.

Amazing Advice

Hey Philipp,

The plugin I found that has kept Google the happiest, the longest is Yasr – Yet Another Stars Rating by Dario Curvino.

Hope you find this helpful.

This is the link that you can download the plug-in that Jay recommends using for doing reviews and getting the five stars rating in the SERPs

Go back through your site, including your affiliate disclosures and so on. Look at anything that can be considered offering an incentive to your visitors and remove/reword it. I had a similar incident with them and was able to fix it. Mine was some wording that said something to the effect of "if you make a purchase using links from this site, you'll be supporting this site", etc. That wasn't allowed either. Once I cleaned it up. All was good and they reinstated my account and I didn't lose any commissions. I had to call them and ask them to reevaluate my site so I didn't have to reapply.

Based on this "While reviewing your Amazon Associates application, we noticed that your web site:http://vibranthappyhealthy.com provides an incentive for customers to click on your Associates links. Associates arent allowed to reward customers for visiting or purchasing from Amazon.com." There's something on your site they view as offering an incentive to your visitors.

Here's the little blog post I did when I was rejected: Amazon affiliate disclosure - why did they close my account?

Hi Phil - that sucks! But nice site :-)

I haven't been through all the pages but I think some have "Amazon" in the link and I don't think that's allowed.

Also, not sure if saying "Lowest prices on Amazon" os regarded as an incentive.

Wow, nice site Phil! I'm not too much of an expert on Amazon as of yet, but I would sure like to know the answer to what got you booted out of there as well.
