    Hello Brothers,

    Please help me, I am a newbie to earning money online and I just made a new blog a few days ago and signed up at CJ this morning.

    My blog is about matchmaking and other romantic stuffs, I live in Cambodia. When I applied to the matchmaking advertisers, I got declined from all of them.

    Here is my blog, please visit and tell me what is wrong:

    http://romantic-palace.blogspot.com/
    Code (markup):
    My questions:

    Did I get declined because I live in Cambodia?
    Did I get declined because I use free blog?
    Did I get declined because my blog is too new?
    Did I get declined because my blog is too ugly?
    Can I make a new account with CJ and start over with new blog?
    What can I do to get success and approval by the advertisers?

    Brothers, please help me... I don't know much about this, I know there are many experts here and I hope to get your kind and greatest advice of how to be successful with CJ.

    I really want to earn some cash online to pay for my study and daily expenses.

    I am waiting for your kind reply and advice


    Warmest Regards,

    lovelife05,

    The quick answer is it's probably either your location, or less likely, the blogspot factor. Some advertisers don't like to deal with new CJ publishers, which is totally stupid.

    How many advertisers did you apply to?

    A question. How many advertisers do you see on your CJ interface? Sometimes if your geo targetting filter is on it filters a huge chunk of advertisers. Turn it off if its on.

    Secondly, if you can find Screensavers.com try to aply. It used to be they accepted everyone.

    Try contacting a few of the advertisers you really want to work with and ask them directly why you were declined. Normally they will do a manual review of your site and give you a reason or perhaps approve you.

    Most of the times the advertisers are on auto-decline for certain situations, but if someone takes the time to contact them and their site is decent they will override.

    I think you need to have your own domain. Blogspot kills it. Too "fly-by-night."

    Yes you need your own domain. Having an attractive looking website helps as well as having a website with decent traffic.

    Look at it from the advertiser's stand point, if you are serious about making money, then you would spend the $10 to get a real domain name.

    Thanks Brothers for all your help... I really appreciate it... I have only LR money since I don't use paypal in my counrtry... Do you know any site where I can buy domain name by using Libertyreserve.

    One more thing, I haven't sent the Tax Document to CJ yet... Can this be the problem of me getting declined by the advertisers? Please clarify this for me... and do I need to fill in the Tax form and send back to CJ.. Is it necessary?


    Thanks so much brothers...


    I am looking forward to starting over journey of earning money online!


    Best Regards,


    Lovelife

    Invest in a domain you can point a domain to your blogspot blog and still have your blog hosted for free then try.

    Good luck.

    My guess is they auto reject you due to your location.

    Yeah if I had a product on CJ and I only saw a blogspot domain listed I would pass right over it.

    When I first started I applied at all of the matchmaking sites got approved to 2, pending on 1 and declined. now that I have been here over 3 months over half of them auto approved me when i reapplied this morning. But then my traffic has increased dramtically, and my click to lead ratio has increased with my other websites. So I would advise the same that people have said, contact them and see. If no response reapply in a few.
