I've applied to a bunch of networks, none have gotten back to me. This will be my first time getting into affiliate marketing (I've ran content based sites for over 5 years) and finally want to get into a new scene. Give me a shout if you can set me up quickly. Thanks.
 


Reps are surprisingly quiet on this board compared to reps on boards in other industries.

It's almost as if there is a rule inside of companies that say they can't post.

It's stupid IMHO.

I never would have checked out A4D and EWA to see what they were about if they didn't post here.

Being a part of the community works.

Call the networks and you'll probably get approved in 5 minutes.
 
Probably because they don't want your shady, up-to-no good tactics, faggot.
 
Hi Johnny,

You should contact them to follow up. When signing up with a network, make sure you are providing them with as much information as possible. For example, how you drive traffic, the target demographic of your Website, and what offers you plan on running from them. Networks have an approval process which reviews affiliates based on media types, relevancy, and promotional plans. If you provide them with sufficient information, it will help the AM's decision of approving you. Help them understand that you will drive quality traffic to their offers.
 
Just make sure you answer to all of their questions properly and apply to programs that matches your niche.
Google Affiliate usually reply quick- try to use them.

Networks don't have any rules that would prevent their employees from posting, but a lot of these guys won't be able to (or have failed miserably) last five posts on WF.

It's really an environment where you have to know what you're talking about (both from knowing the needs of both affiliates and advertisers), rather than pitching the next new offer that's "hot hot hot".

Call, Email, send smoke signals if you need to, some networks get hundreds of applications and unfortunately if you don't standout to them your just gonna sit around and wait.
 
If you've applied for Neverblue I can expedite your application process if you PM me your info. If anyone ever needs help with anything Neverblue related (application approval, question answered, dispute, etc) PM me with some info and your situation and I can get in contact with someone to help you out right away.

Totally agree that reps should spend more time on here interacting and helping out but not sure how much value they can really bring on a forum other than addressing issues n such?

Get approved, get a good AM (try a few), and make some friends to bounce ideas off and then you should be all good.

If they are knowledgeable reps they should be able to bring a lot of value. At least as much as the best posters.

They have a lot of inside insights on things which means when it comes to statistics, trends, and such they can offer a lot of insight on things.

For instance, in the "What The Hell Works On Admob" thread, a rep with lots of mobile offers should be able to add a lot of insight.

You would think they would jump at the chance and the thread would be full of people promoting offers that have been known to work on mobile ad nets even if it isn't Admob.

But no. No one is doing that, although a poster named FTC-Hater made a hall of fame post in there. Check it out.

It's very strange IMHO.

I have heard stories on the contrary. This obviously isn't policy across all networks, but some of them don't want their employees posting on this forum for whatever reason.

The knowledge that most reps would bring would involve what they are seeing that works on the campaigns being run on their networks/programs. What they're seeing is the stats, trends, etc. being produced by affiliates.

Successful affiliates do not like having their methods discussed publically, to avoid having their methods become saturated and unprofitable. Most reps know that, and that's why they stay quiet about that kind of stuff.
 
Not true Steve.

I would not say this if I haven't seen great reps become popular figures on other boards in other industries over the last 10 years.

It's not necessary to give away sensitive secrets just to make an informative post.

But, of course, you can't let a rep that's new to the industry start posting at will either. But, then again, we all wonder why companies hire those people to deal with affiliates anyway.
