my hub about dogs that don't shed had dog grooming products in the ads and links to other dogs that don't shed. But the article was kicked back for "unrelated links or products." What am I not understanding here?
Hey Jenna, I have heard of other people having the same problem. Contact staff directly and get a moderator to explain the problem. There might be something subjective in the product links used.
I just heard someone else that said this happened. She took off Amazon and then it went through fine. It must be Amazon is serving up ads that don't match sometimes.
There are some glitches going on concerning links on one's hubs at the moment. I don't know for sure, but they may be affecting newly published hubs too. But as Cags said, best to email staff to be sure.
One possible reason is if you are using keywords in Amazon capsules rather than choosing specific products (and eBay capsules work only with keywords). Sometimes these cause an unrelated product to show up.
See the whole morning worth of debate and info. Some of us have legitimate violations, but there is a bug in the system the are working on. I would wait a few hours personally to post anything today....

I wrote an article on Scrum methodology and added one Amazon book suggestion at the end. It was snipped. Why?

Hi there folks,I'm really upset. I've been going through my articles, some of which date back to 2010 and the good old Squidoo days. The editing on my pages and the automatic removal of my Amazon capsules is out of control.The products are relevant. I use them personally to create the items...

Every time I put an Amazon capsule on my articles it gets snipped. I write how it benefits people and how it relates to the article.

I understand the editing process, quality control and for articles not to appear "spammy" My article was about slat chlorine generators and a sentence in there about testing salinity levels in the water. "This can be done by using a salt test meter or salt test strips" I...

I'm pretty confused about how Amazon links are viewed here, as opposed to at Squidoo.Squidoo has/had Amazon capsules that could each contain a handful of items. These worked really well for illustrative purposes (when, say, one wanted to show five *different* options for accomplishing a given...
