after decline, do I just keep re-applying?

    There is this one company that I would really like to affiliate with. They declined me.

    so I edited my account, took out that website and inserted another website of mine. Then re-applied.

    If declined again, do I just keep re-applying? The squeeky bearing gets the grease, right?

    Have you emailed the advertiser's affiliate rep and asked WHY you were declined? Most of them are pretty good about replying.

    Which advertiser is it?

    MrSandman:

    When i first read your post, I thought you were rejected because you are not from US.
    HOwever i just saw that you are from Michigan, so that should not be a problem.

    Yoru best bet is to re-apply with following information:
    -your business model;
    -traffic source/level;

    It also helps to ask why the advertisers dish you. If however, after doing all of the above, you are still rejected then I say move on.

    If you got auto declined, then you should email them with "love letter" why they should accept you.
    Give details on your biz model and traffic to your site.

    I changed to a different link and re-applied. It's been status pending for a long time. I guess I'll need to move on. their loss!

    Actually, one phone call and you'll be advertising them in no time.

    Dont waste your time, if they declined you twice. Better you move on. I am in the same situation like you. If you are good with SEO, you can go with hosting affiliate.
