As a publisher, what are are advertisers looking for in a website? I've submitted multiple applications and they all went through manual review. All of them were denied. I want to target a few niches, but I don't want to build sites for all of them. I am worried I will waste my time if they reject me again. How are you folks getting accepted?!
Do you have a blog? You can create one about internet marketing topic for eg. how IM can help an offline merchant to prosper online. This will give an idea to the approvers that you can create more sites like that. Also, if you are applying to CPA networks then you can mention that you'll be doing email marketing and the list is not a bought one, but your own.
I can easily make a blog about IM. Can I use one of those free blog sites and make something there? And won't they reject me again if its not related to their niche? I am with a couple CPA networks (Hydra, Ads4Dough, etc) and had no problems there. CJ and their advertisers manually reviewing my application has been a pain for me. I usually have direct-linking campaigns, but seems like a lot of CJ advertisers don't like that.
Contact the advertiser by email and explain how U will promote their website. Should work with most advertisers.
For most CJ advertisers that approve manually, you will need a specific blog or website for them to review. They are tightening up their approval process to make their online programs more manageable and profitable. Build a few free blogs and free websites (try Weebly.com) for specific niches and be sure to list them in your CJ account (Account Tab >> Web site Settings >> Add A New Website). Then reapply to the ones that turned you down, and continue to apply to new advertisers. Always contact the advertisers that turn you down by email. Also you can try CPAPark. They have some of the highest payouts for performance based marketing, up to $52 per Lead, and their advertisers are very flexible. Hope this helps.
