I want to start a zip submit campaign but all the affiliates want to see my website. I don't have one, I need to see the offers there are before I can make one. Seems like a catch 22 thing. Maybe I'm just going about this wrong though. Please enlighten me as to how this works.
call them and let them know your plan, or tell them you plan on doing ppc. Most places will work to approve you once you get on the phone with them.
As jstme stated, just call them and explain. The other option is to create a free blog on blogger and use that when applying to affiliate programs...
Yeah, definitely best to contact them directly. If you just apply without a site, they will more than likely deny you.
Definitely try the free blog on blogger or wordpress option. Once you have a free blog site you can apply and then add your new freebie site later. I think you can apply for Commission Junction and start an account without a site but you need a site to be approved for programs.
I would also recommend calling them or telling them a bit about what you are planning on doing and see how that goes. I'm sure some of the networks will work with you if they see that you have some potential in what you are planning on doing.
