So I submitted my application to azoogle on friday... 3 business days later and still no welcome email from them. I've confirmed their original application email.
what gives? Did you guys have to wait a while before you got approved?

I applied twice to their system, did not receive a reply the first time and my second application from 5 days ago did not receive one as well..

Think they don't want me, at least a mail stating this would be really nice..

I heard about that :eek: They will have a office inside of NYC tho, just not as many people.

I actually waited almost a month before I got any IOs from them.....

I'd email or call sooner if they don't call within a week.

they answered my followup email saying that they're tied up and since I have private registration on my domain they can't verify that I own them. I've sent them a reply with my godaddy.com screenshots.

I've heard good things about azoogle, but taking 2+ weeks to approve an affiliate...

It's well worth the wait once you see the quality of their offers :)

I've been going back and forth with them for 2 weeks now. They appear to move very slow in responding to e-mails, and they are very picky with their validation of domain ownership, etc. As it stands now I've forwarded them all the documentation they asked for and submitted my tax info. Still have not heard back or gotten officially accepted. Looking forward to it though! Everyone says good things about this program.

When I applied to azoogle I didn't hear anything. I asked them on AIM (their addy was 'azoogleads' I think), and they approved it straight away. Sometimes they need a little nudge when it comes to applications :)

I finally got my approval e-mail. Though I'm suppose to call them tomorrow to expedite some survey of my site they want to do.

I already answered the questions via e-mail, but apparently they like to validate over the phone.

I'm excited to finally get to try there programs out! This was by far the toughest program to get into... at least for me.

Why not those guys who are arleady in -- post a comprehensive post or blog entry about getting in and mention min requirements :rolleyes:

I signed up, got an e-mail asking me some questions, filled it out and a couple of days later I was in. I used a real website, that I really owned and it was not a big issue.

I did talk to my rep today, and they mentioned that they have a ton of new sign-ups lately, so I suspect it is taking a while to process all the new people they are bringing in.

Oct 23rd 2006, 8:38 pm

I just got in today. The whole process took about 2 weeks of going back and forth, emailing screen shots, etc. I started my first campaigns tonight, so we'll see how they go!

I'm not aware of any min requirements. They never mentioned anything about that. They did "interview" me on the phone about my site, number of vistors, who I run ads with currently, etc.

My site is over 6 years old, so age may be a factor.

I submitted my original application on September 11th and was not actually accepted until earlier today. In my case, I think it was a combination of a spike in people applying, along with the shakeup in their office that occured around the end of September.

Even though it took a while to get everything worked out, after looking through everything they had to offer this morning, I think it was well worth the wait ;)
