Still Trying to Get Amazon to Let Me Create a Tag That Says Breastfeeding

November 07, 2007

So far, I haven't had any luck with my quest to create certain "tags" on the Amazon page that sells my book. Amazon won't accept any variation of the word breastfeeding. I wrote about this here and here last week. Since then, I wrote yet another letter to Amazon. I got a pretty lame response today.

Here's my letter.

To the Amazon Team:
I have been trying to create tags for various forms of the word breastfeeding. Breast feeding. Breast-feeding. Breastfeed, breast feed, breast-feed. Amazon will not let me do this. The title of my book is "Mama Knows Breast: A Beginner's Guide to Breastfeeding." So these tags are very important to me.

I wrote about my trouble with this on my blog. www.mamaknowsbreast.com My blog is linked through RSS to the Amazon site, so the post is visible on my sales page. Can someone please help me resolve this problem? Thank you.

Here's the response:

Andi, Thanks for contacting us at Amazon.com.

I'm sorry, but I will need to research the tag feature further. I
will write back to you with an answer within the next 5-6business
days.

Thank you in advance for your patience, and thanks for shopping at
Amazon.com.
