Brian: I know Amazon took away affiliate status for people in Colorado (and other states) because of tax laws they thought egregious.
Is the Kindle affiliate program different? Can you be a Kindle affiliate in the states where you can’t be a “regular” Amazon affiliate?
Alyson,
Unfortunately you are correct – Residents of Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, North Carolina or Rhode Island are not eligible to participate in Amazon’s Affiliate/Associates program. The Kindle affiliate program isn’t any different.
But you can still setup accounts with BN, Apple, and Google.
