Hi All,
I made the rather rookie mistake of applying to an affiliate network before my website had actually been completed which is why I no doubt got rejected. I have read up on this and found that you need to build up traffic to your site and be clear on your marketing strategy so they can trust you as genuine. The problem is that this takes time and not feasible if your whole website idea is reliant on promoting products.
I have also learned about sites such as Revembed that make promoting merchants available to you without having to jump through the hoops that affiliate networks put in front of you. They offer a 80/20 revenue commission share in your favour and save you the hassle from having to deal with the different affiliate networks separately. Are these type of sites to be trusted and has anyone had any experience in using them?
Can this be seen as a good short term option of having merchants available to you straight away and then once you have built up good traffic to your website you can then re apply to the affiliate networks yourself?
Any feedback/past experiences with the above will be appreciated.
