anyone know what the requirements to be accepted to the BestBuy program are? My app was declined and my emails asking for clarification, were not responded.
Is this your first rejection? If so move on, there are plenty more that will suffice for Best Buy products
not the first.. but my site is targeted toward consumer electronics buyers. so naturally BestBuy would be an excellent fit. just curious if anyone knew their criteria.
This is from their TOS... "We may reject your application if we determine (in our sole discretion) that your site is unsuitable for the Best Buy Affiliate Program for any or no reason, including, but not limited to, inclusion of content, or links to such material that is in any way unlawful, harmful, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, violent or that: * promotes or depicts violence (i.e., murder, selling weapons, cruelty, abuse, etc.); * promotes pornographic or sexually explicit materials; * promotes discrimination based on gender, race, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age; * promotes or offers peer to peer file sharing methodologies that may allow consumers to infringe the intellectual property rights of others; * violates copyrights, trademarks, or any other intellectual property rights of Best Buy Co., Inc., and its subsidiaries and affiliates or any other person or entity; * includes "Best Buy" or any variations or misspellings thereof in the domain name or other HTML tags, including page titles, metatags, or HTML comment tags...

If we reject your application, you are welcome to reapply to the Best Buy Affiliate Program." I would try to email them again, explaining the situation and also reapply. best of luck!
Do you have anything on your site that says best buy? When I first started with Best Buy I had a blank page and they accepted me...lol. I suggest trying again, maybe switch up your page...And put up the % off codes, those have made me some good money... good luck
Maybe you have some products in your site that make them confuse with the copyright? You can try to cut off some codes, and make the design more simple.
