Today I recieved an email stating:
We noticed that you are not using tags associated with your store in any of the Amazon Special Links you have created on your Site
Hi Rose,
I'm sorry to hear you also had this problem. Were you able to figure out the reason?
I received the same email today and was wondering how you went about resolving this issue.
Sorry about this, Rose! I know it's disgusting for one to get banned for what one knows nothing about. My suggestion, for now, is that you should contact Amazon asking for why you got banned. I am sure they'll get back to you and let you how you can improve your business in the nearest future.
Hi Rose,
I'm really not sure. Are you using the links that Amazon gives you to link to their website? If not, that's what you need to be doing.
Try to contact them and let them know this was an honest mistake and maybe they will reactivate your account.
Good luck,
Donna
I was using the exact links without alteration. It's just so weird. I wrote them to ask.
Thank you for your help!
It looks like you're not using your affiliate links..the ones that have your unique ID or tag:
"Associates earn commissions by using their own websites to refer sales to Amazon.com. To get a commission, an Associate must have an Associate tag. The Associate tag is an automatically generated unique identifier that you will need to make requests through the Product Advertising API."
Make sure your generating links to items via the Amazon Associates link building tool or the Site Stripe add on. If you're just plugging URLs in to the items as Amazon and not including your tag then you'll never get credit for the sales generated from those links.
Oddly enough, I was using the stripe and did not alter the links. I already had three sales so I have no idea what the issue is.
Thank you for your response!

I recently have blown up on bing and rank under 46 searches for a 1 month old site. However, my google ranking have halted all together.
Anyone have ideas as to why?
