Great idea for monetization, thank you! They mentioned to pay out the affiliate earnings (approx. 6,20 €). I'm curious to see if that happens.

Thank you for the feedback. It's not a hosting issue, my website is hosted at netcup and still up and running. I already created a new affiliate account, but if I don't change anything on the website I assume they will close it ag

That would mean that you are at risk if you buy some Google ads to generate traffic. Why should Amazon want to avoid traffic?

Would be interesting if somebody could resolve the issue and find out what unwritten rules Amazon has in addition.

Correct, the hosting is not the problem, the website is still up and running. I'm talking about the Amazon Associates account needed for affiliate links.

Yes, I also heared that argument. But I also can see a lot of web pages with dark theme that are not designed for mobile devices. For me it looks like following a trend.
