Ran into a pissed off reviewer at ezinearticles

    Just had 5 articles rejected due to "Sorry, we do not accept articles which contain affiliate or distributor links."

    Wow. Cause I have them landing on my sales page lol and it's the same damn resource box I used for about a dozen articles before it.

    Great another 48hrs to wait for those articles to get accepted. I'm going to resubmit them without changes and see what happens.

    All that I tried like that where rejected. I have been using the landing since they never allow affiliate links.

    What if you were to use the link to a splash or squeeze page? Would that work?

    Is this a recent change in policy, I thought this was perfectly acceptable?

    I know that they only disapprove clear affiliate links (like affiliate.vendor.hop.clickbank.net), not redirecting domains... Weird.
    Yesterday I had some hosting issues and my website went down for about five times for a minute each. Apparently, the reviewer tried to enter my site only at these times and rejected my article for broken links, twice.

    I think people are missing the fact that I wasn't doing any redirecting. I had them landing on a sales page I made. I don't know where the hell they came up with this redirecting crap.

    Well, they were rejected again. Same reason.

    Do I just reply to the email I sent asking them what the hell they're talking about? Or is there a specific one I need to use?

    Why not make a fake page for them to look at. When the article gets accepted, redirect to the real page.

    Well,

    A. It would be cheating and I could potentially get banned losing all my articles.
    B. I'm not redirecting anything. I have a sales page on my website and that's all the link goes too.

    from my experience, once an article is rejected for the reasons you have

    given it is very hard fo them to accept it. You would have to change the

    headline if I remember well so it seems like a new article

    You can link to blogspot.

    I don't know what the f**** there problem is.

    I'll try that. Right now though, I'm more interested in hearing an explanation from them.

    To do that I believe you would still have to edit the article again .

    I am sorry if you meant something else .


    Also Supper , Welcome to Ezines World . :) They used to accept some of my articles , let them run for a while and then contact me to say there was something wrong with them .

    If you contact them they will still ask you to do what they want . Anyway you can try and good luck

    But remember if this reviewer find out that you are doing this for all your articles , he can decide whether or not to cancel them

    What's the difference? It still leads to an affiliate link. If they check URLs as suggested, then why to try to cheat the system? :confused:

    Once they find the links they will be rejected. If they discover already published articles with those types of links and yes they do slip through they will flag it as a problem article.

    You may wonder why the heck they may have published it in the first place. If you have an article directory sometimes an article slips through that falls outside the TOS because all editors are human.

    I don't know about you, they just accepted one after 9 rejections in a row.

    How many articles will slip through? I've got about a dozen with this particular resource box, not to mention the rest(70 articles) are based off the same idea.

    They keep citing I'm breaking a rule that I'm not. I don't see how a human could be so stupid to click on my link, goto MY WEBSITE that HAS CONTENT ON IT, and confuse that for a redirection.

    It's not in an iframe is it? it would be nice to see an article in question! Good luck I have had similar problems with them. I still submit to them but I focus on many other directories when I submit articles.
