Hey Warriors
I applied to get in to hydra network about a week ago as and got an email back today saying I had to give them a phone about my affiliate application, well I did and I have to say I have never been grilled like that before while applying for any CPA networks (and I am in all the major ones) I was on the phone with them for 20+mins asking me all kinds of stuff relevant and irelevant, I'm used to contacting the networks saying I do PPC and I spend $5k a month on advertising blah blah then thats it I'm in but that was brutal I had to blag my way through that phone call (good job I can talk the ears off a donkey), just hope it was woth it and they have some awesome offers waiting for me. And yes I did get in but if I knew how difficult the phone call would be prior I may have left it a while. Just a word of warning to any complete noob who is planning on applying be prepared to blag your way through the phone call, or better still just no what your talking about

What you'll find is that there is not necessarily a list of questions they MUST go over, but rather you're at the mercy of the whims of whomever has to speak to you that day. The same person might spend only 5 minutes on the phone with someone else on another day.
I have not found them to be difficult to work with on inter-network partnerships. However, there has been a lot of turnover over the past several months as 3 of their founders/partners left. |

For me Hydra was easy to get into. Like mentioned in the reply above, it was just a 5 minute phone call, or even less since I mentioned I was driving and they know California laws regarding cell phones and driving. Anyway, it was a real short call, just asked how I promoted and what kind of ROI I was having that was basically it. I was approved. You probably got someone who was pist off at something and wanted to give someone a hard time. They have really great offers, however, the affiliate manager support is lacking a lot there compared to networks like neverblue or cx digital. My favorite of all is cx digital

In my case Hydra definetely didn't want me with newbie status, but they said it's ok and I can return later, no probs.

It depends case by case basis. Also greatly on the person who's reviewing your application. I got in Hydra, maxbounty, azoogle very easily however neverblue didn't accept me.

I dont know I tried to apply to hydra twice and the 2nd time they were rude to me and said since they declined me once 5 months ago they can't accept me. It went into this who ordeal where they interviewed me on the phone, everything seemed good, then they tried to call me back to verify my phone number. I accidentally got disconnected, and tried to call them back several times, finally got a hold of them 2 days later and the lady on the phone was totally rude to me. She said I was declined and I said "but you guys tried to call me back to verify me" and she said "how do you know we were going to accept you". So I just said whatever, I make enough money with other cpa's peace out!

I know people that work for Hydra, and they are pretty strict about accepting new people. You can always reapply though down the road.

Yeah it def depends who you speak to but the number one reason they will grill you is if they believe you are doing something sketcky. If you are legit and know what youre doing, it should be that brutal, although I guess if you hit the wrong person on the wrong day its def possible.
Hydras a good network though good luck |

Hydra is an excellent network. Refrain from trying any questionable marketing methods with them. They have excellent tracking and it's not worth loosing them.
