   I have just a few photos on BigStock. I had previously put affiliate links because I thought it was like posting affiliate links to your own Etsy store. However then I read forums that said you need it approved. I will remove these if they are not okay. Its not like I have made any money. I am just starting up my blog. I have a few amazon affiliate links to things I have bought and reviewed (which I think is okay from reading rules). If I get more traffic I will host it and go to .org and would like to not have to redo my links etc. But I might not ever want to get to that point of complicated. Where do I go to see if Big Stock is approved? Is my blog on the up and up? When I try to "contact support" this is where I am sent to. Thanks.

   If they are YOUR photos, and your blog is a real blog and not just a way to funnel people towards sales, then you should be fine.

   The Amazon links, however, might be iffy. Staff have said that if your blog is a review blog, a few Amazon links are okay. If the purpose of the blog is to drive sales through affiliate links, then no.

   I am traveling and reviewing items I use as I travel but that is not my primary use of the blog just part of the blog. It is a real blog.
