I had a similar reaction from Ezine to one pitch where I had a link to Google sniper directly on my first page they declined to print my article. I switched the Google sniper ad to a hidden page and they were fine with it! I hope they are not trying to squeeze affiliate only marketers out of business!

Google Social Engineering. I hate buying shampoos and deodorant because there are so many choices. I just want one or two to choose from. Google is deciding for us that we can only go to stores that feature a gazillion products. Give me both choices please.

Ok we want sales. the internet user wants information and Google wishes the internet user to get the experience they are after. That is fine. Lets just give more quality information. Think when you are using the internet and only get lead to people selling you stuff - its annoying right? Give good quality info and sell at the back end. As an internet user that is what I would want. So I haope I can provide that for others.

Google doesn't like sites that offer only one product? What do they think their ads do? And what's wrong with funneling traffic? The more traffic, the better chances of making sales -- isn't that the point?

Hi, I'm glad you were able to comply with googles terms. Can you tell me what the changes were that you had to make if possible. I'm a newbie, just found a possible niche and I would like to avoid the mistake if possible. Just getting ready to build my site. Thanks.

Feeling like a pinball from page one to page three now in less than an hours time haha it is almost comical

If they don't like sites that offer only one product, does that mean they allow review pages?

Hi Phil, Great update, and happy it's working out for you. Proud of your ingenuity and flexibility and ability to pull it out. In light of what you've been through, I got worried about a project I'm working on. It's an exciting project for me and I hope for others who visit the sites. Will be packed with content, but a very different structure. My concern is about Google. Do you have a contact address or number for them? Are you communicating directly with them? Would you be willing to share an email address or phone number? I'm still tracking them. If/when I get a contact, I'll share it with WA.

Content is king. Provide good content to the customer and everything will be fine.

Yet another update this morning I made a few changes to my page mainly added a few more products and removed my sales pitch and I was informed I am now in compliance. I still will not be using adwords to avoid future headaches but it is a relief to know I am safe for now. If anyone would like to see the layout of my site stop by http://www.squeezeboxtouchreview.net
