    If you get declined you can write directly to the affiliate manager and ask them why.

    But before you do that it's best to write a short note about how you can make them money.

    Like this:

    Hi my website... abc dot com has about 5,000 visitors per day. Our traffic is mostly female 18-45. We feel we would be a great match to sell your xyz product. We are promoting another product to our visitors and doing quite well.

    However when we applied to your program our application was denied.

    Can you advise me on how we can participate in your offer?

    Usually this is enough. However sometimes if you just don't drive a lot of traffic they will still decline you.

    Good luck.

    Prob is that not always you get an answer.
    CJ are not part of the problem, the AM's per program are

    you'll find part of the problem is your country location.. Looks like your in the UK, if your applying to US merchants some of them just decline because of this without even looking at your sites to see that they are US related.. An email usually sorts this out, but like you say getting an answer from some of them is the hardest part.. It makes you wonder how some of these people even keep their businesses afloat.

    if a program does not have a responsive manager, maybe you want to look for one that does.
