I applied for a plan in cj but I got a message saying I was not accepted. Can I get in contact with either cj or the owner of the plan to ask why? I just want to know if it was because my site was new or for some other reason but I dont want my account to get banned for hassling advertisers.
yes you can ask them, I was rejected once and when I asked it turned out the reason was because I had a broken link on my webpage.
That shouldn't be a problem at all - I have done it several times. I have many websites in different niches which the advertisers don't seem to like. But in almost every case, if I contacted the affiliate manager for that advertiser directly and explained to them why I wanted an affiliate relationship with them and showed them which site I planned to use the links on, I was approved. Check the advertiser detail page (click on the advertiser's name) - it should give you a direct contact or a website where you can root around and find one. Best of luck.
That's a good question - I've never called, always emailed. I've gotten very good response with email.
