Getting into Apple's Affiliate Program

Discussion in 'Commission Junction' started by BlogsAboutCrap, Apr 22, 2010.

    Does anyone have any idea of what it takes to get into Apple's affiliate program? I've been turned down before and wanted to know what I need to do to get in. I have a site that is growing its traffic quickly (started in February, expect over 10K PV's this month), with full FTC disclosure, site map, completely real and original content.

    Any ideas?

    IIRC Apple's affiliate program pays a tiny % commission (1%?). Maybe it's possible to promote the products you want through a different merchant

    I want to promote their refurbished computers which aren't available elsewhere. Amazon is much better with 4% commission up to $25 on computers.

    If you are set on Apple, email them. Tell them your story, and what you want to promote.

    Apple rejected my applications. They are difficult to cope with.

    I will email them and see what happens. The worst that could happen is them saying no right.
