I see that a lot of people have some problems to get accepted into CPA Networks. So I just decided to give some value for you...

1. Don't be scared
Remeber that affiliate managers and CPA Networks work to get both: advertisers and publishers. What does it mean? It means that they want YOU to be a part of their Network.

2. Be honest
Ne honest about your goal and your experience. In some cases it's much MORE better to tell that you're a newbie than to lie that you're very experienced.

3. Be enthusiastic
After you signed up and your application is received. Don't be scraed and immediately call/send email them. Just show that you really want to work with them!

There are some general topics about getting accepted to CPA Networks:

1. Website
If you have a website - type it in. If it's just a wordpress blog - do it.
Useful tip: If there are just few posts on your blog or you just created a website. Try to find a Corporate/Business theme and install it. I always use this one:
Nova WordPress Theme | Elegant Themes

2. Your marketing experience
In general there are 2 types: using FREE traffic and driving PAID traffic. Before you begind to work with - they always ask what type of traffic do you prefer?

So it's necessary to find the type of traffic you love and can focus on. The easiest PAID traffic (in my opinion) is PPV (CPV). However it's not so easy to work with PPV.

So they ask these questions:
- What type of traffic do you prefer?
- What offers/niches do you like?

***I always answer that I know SEO (onsite and offsite). And I like to use it for long term prospective. But for short term and quick results - I like PPV and sometimes Banners.***

I alwas say this and it's true

3. Additional
In some cases they ask you to show your creatives (banners or landing pages). When I said that I like PPV - I was asked to show my creatives and I did it.

So, don't be scared! Just choose networks you like and apply. Remeber that sometimes you can be denied and it's not a problem. Just apply again and again to this network.

CPA Networks:

1. Maxbounty.com
It was the first network I applied. I had no experience but I told that I'm good at SEO and also planning to work with PPV and I was approved. They called me from Canada.

2. Peerfly.com
No problem The same strategy.

3. CoProsper.com
No problem

4. QwikMedia.com
This Network is great for Media Buys and PPV. Asked where did I hear about them? I asked that my friends recommended me.

5. EWA (ewanetwork.com)
This Network is private network but it's not so HARD to get accepted. I just sent them email and they didn't call. And approved me.
Tip: If you want to get accepted in EWA:
- You can find a referrer
- Or you can contact Ryan Eagle and ask for help - he will help you.

Important note: I'm not from US or Canada. I'm an "international affiliate". That's why in most cases I was communicating using: Email and AIM.

I hope it will help you.

Just remeber - don't be scared. CPA Network want to work with you. Start with Maxbounty (as I listed) and everything will be fine.

P.S.
All my tips are according to my experience and courses where I got this information. As I told sometimes you can be denied - I was denied by NeverBlue

Thanks for the info. I've been having trouble getting accepted into CPA networks, so this will definitely help.

The point here I think that is the most relevant for all affiliates trying to get approved by a network.

BE HONEST

Even if you have little to no experience and your website is a first attempt at an online presence. Just say this in your application.

Lots of affiliates are afraid that because they have no experience a network will not want to work with them. However the truth is that as a network we get so many bogus applications and scammers trying to get accounts that if you lie on your application you will slotted into the same group as the rest of them.

Some networks may not want to work with newbs but that is there loss. There are plenty of great and reputable networks that will work with affiliates of all skill levels.

Speaking clear English might help to, here's one of about two dozen broken english submissions we got on our affiliate register pages today:

can you approve for me?
hi, manager I\'m not new to online marketing, I\'m good with media buy and know what I\'m doing and would really want to become an affiliate with you. i always purchase more than 20,000 traffics from worldwide per day to promote offers Let me say something about how I\'ll promote of offers. Firstly, I will find the offers which can convert easily. Then I will make Landing Pages. At last, I will get traffics to landing pages. After 3 days, I will replace the Landing Pages or offers which are hard to convert.

I'll give you three guesses on whether this gets approved or not.

Great tips, mate!

Getting approved by networks is usually the easiest part of the process, but some people from certain locations have been facing problems due to the high fraud incidence in their regions, so your tips can help good people to have a clue on what to say to be given a chance to explain their intentions.

@ Per Action Rob

You are exactly right.

I have no idea why this is such a tough idea to grasp for some people. A great way to create doubt in a network approvals agent is to promise to send loads of US traffic and then demonstrate terrible English.

Nice tips .

I am sure these tips would help lots of newbies .

sixstringmel

Hi

I am a newbie at affiliate & CPA marketing and this was good advice for me.

I have already applied to EWA but have not heard back from them yet, and I was going to try neverblue next, but see that you were declined, so I don't think I'll stand any chance there yet - maybe try them later.

In fact I think I'll take your advice and try maxbounty next.

Anyway thanks for the heads up and if you, (or any other warriors), can offer any more insightful tips to getting accepted by CPA networks, it would be very much appreciated.

Many networks have a policy now against anyone not in N.America. Is this right? I don't know specifically, but do know that most of the fraud doesn't come from Texas.

OMG,, this is what i seek for.
thanks bro

A lot of great info on how to get into CPA Networks. After owning the C2M Affiliate Networks for 3+ years, the simplest way to put it is, don't lie about your business. However, if you do have to lie to get into a CPA Network, it kind of goes against the grain of the network to allow you because you are trying to play them ehhh?

Here are 5 quick tips I'll contribute that I wrote back in April of 2008:

• Dont have a website, build one. It’s an instant red flag. Another red flag is if you dont have a website then using something like Google or Yahoo will get you denied pretty quick. Fact of the matter is that silly things like that are seen hundreds of times daily. Your best bet is to ALWAYS utilize the comment box located in applications. You better be telling why you dont have a site and what your intentions are.
• Get on the phone – Immediately after filing an application go try to locate a contact number. You take the innitiative not the network. While it’s always nice for the networks to do that, I think I covered an important point of all the bull**** networks deal with.
• Dont use the same website 5 times – Automatic deletion in my book. This looks like you used form filling software. I use form filling software but I examine every application I ever submitted so to not allow a silly mistake that looks unprofessional like this. If you dont have 5 websites then dont put anything there.
• State your strengths and intentions – Comment boxes are on applications for a reason. Skipping them shows laziness. Filling them out shows professionalism. How serious would you like your online businesses and account to be taken?
• Use a reliable email client – If I see asia.com or usa.com or mail.com, I automatically delete it. Use your head because aside from all the bull**** spam some networks send you, the really good ones with good Affiliate Managers are going to send you tips that you dont want to miss.

thank you for these tips

i really need it after rejection from cj
is it necessary to have a web site have a good traffic to expect but i depend on email marketing

deeguy1

I found I can get into about 1/2 of the networks with little effort. Some just deny me for no good reason

safexsolutions

Good start up guide..

kedipmata

you can get easy approve with cpa if you have authority site. I have friends who has authority site and many cpa networks sent email to offer cpa.

rallenk

It all begins with the correct frame of mind...yours.

If you know SEO and PPC and have a website in any niche, chances are you will be accepted.

Simply 'assume' you will. Generally you receive what you 'expect'.

Most importantly, know what to say if you are asked questions by the network you have applied to. Do some homework, read the threads that guide you how to to get into networks.

Good information by OP, useful for anyone applying to CPA networks.

Kenster

Yep...the most important thing is having a promotion plan you can articulate to them. That's normally the make or break moment of the phone screening/application

This sounds great and all but I didn't have a website and I didn't exactly do any of these things all I really focused on was one thing. And for 3 out of my first 3 networks it seemed to work great as I didn't get denied by one.

What I conveyed to all of them was an unmatched type of ambition. I showed through my words how obsessed I was with CPA and the countless hours I had spent researching the stupidest little things the most people probably wouldn't take a minute to read about. When I research something I research EVERY single aspect of something that possibly exists.
I had mentioned at least 10 different ideas I had storming in my head and I was EXTREMELY enthused just to talk about them to my coaches. I was fresh meat and somewhat naive and I knew they knew that, but I also knew I had an advantage and that was the energy and enthusiasm I brought to the table as a newbie.

And in terms of that I'm probably one of the most enthusiastic people I know when it comes to CPA. I've only been in it for 8 weeks now about but I have cut off other areas of my life 100% just to master this. Like studio time and producing music. I did it for the last 9 years of my life everyday and this is the first time I haven't produced music in over 9 years. I did that stuff every single day. Possibly one of my strongest desires in this world was to master music. But since discovering CPA my desire for music has almost been crushed.

It was conveying little things like this to my coaches that I think made them realize I am serious as serious can be. I'm not here just to test a few things, fail and then leave. I'm here to test absolutely every single thing I can, think of every single thing I can, and master every single thing I can. I am potently ambitious about this stuff and I might even risk saying that 16 hours a day as long as I'm awake I'm trying to concoct new marketing strategies in my head.

My coaches can sense I have "CPA OCD" and really if you can show your coach you are just genuinely ambitious to learn this stuff that is the only thing I think you really need to show them. We ALL are going to make mistakes but its the ambitious ones who never give up when they fail. These coaches know this. And the more ambitious you are the more it benefits everyone not just yourself. The energy rubs off on them, on your campaigns, on other marketers.

So really I definitely think all that stuff is more of a formality, but if you want to be original like I always strive to be, just show your coaches you are AMBITIOUS and READY to conquer the world. Tell him about your ideas (of which in my opinion you should have lots but should know how to focus on one thing) and show him how excited this stuff makes you. Thats what I do now when I call my coach its almost impossible for him to get me off the phone and I'm sure one side of him hates it but another side of him realizes how much I just love marketing.

Show your coach you are ambitious and in it for the right reasons, convey that to him and show him you are intelligent and an outside the box thinker. If you can really show him that, than forget if you reuse a site 5 times or break any of these formalities imo. Just tell him you were doing a test of which you did 100 today, and one of those tests was to see how reusing a site would effect conversions. What if you found it didn't effect conversions?

Thats why I prefer to rarely follow rules. Rules are there to guide newbies. But you're never going to learn a whole lot by following them. The real experts imo are those who have a motivation to break the rules so they can SEE for THEMSELVES why those rules are in place and how important they actually are. Then they are able to derive a type of knowledge that a conformist never could. This is how I got good at music, by breaking tons of rules and reinventing my own wheel or "style". If you ever want to get good at anything, then like I said don't be overly concerned about following norms. Rules are definitely important, but they can also hold a lot of people back. So take what you will from this.

And no this doesn't mean go employing one bluefart method after another it means that there is something to learn from almost everything you do. So in order to learn the most you must do the most imo. Like right now I'm not using my landing page on purpose. I'm intentionally trying to see how not having a landing page effects conversions. If I posted on here asking about the importance of a landing page everyone would say "you ABSOLUTELY need one!" And yeh I do. But I still want to see how important it is in the real world. I also want to see if theres anyways to improve things BEFORE the landing page. Which there is. Like your ads themselves. Should I really be so focused on having a landing page when I'm not even sure which ads are most effective?

Chances are if I had a landing page up right now and wasn't getting conversions I'd be asking people what was wrong with my landing page, instead of what was wrong with my ads. I see this all the time on here too like "you need the indiana jones of CPA to make your landing page for you" almost like its the single most important aspect of marketing. But rarely do I see threads focused on the ads themselves and how they are designed. So right now I removed the element of the landing page because if I can get conversions w/out one, that must mean my ads are good. And if I can accomplish that first, THEN I'll start working on a golden landing page. This is MY wheel and I get to spin it however I want. Rules are secondary.

(sry for the rant)

Great post, thanks!

AlenGeorgeson

Good stuff. All you need is confidence. Don't be scared or whatever, just fill out the application, be honest, and then call them immediately. You'll be approved if you do that.

Hope that helps.

AboveMax

Great stuff, key to get approved is to Be Honest

theofferguy2342

As an affiliate manager myself, I see this ALL THE TIME. There is a group of individuals out there that apply to different networks, usually under an alias of some kind, and (if they're accepted) they turn around and sell the login credentials to the publisher that's looking for it.

And then when you do the phone interview with these guys...nevermind.

theofferguy2342

Kind of beating a dead horse here, but be honest. Intergrity and honesty go a long way. I'm really particular about who I let become a publisher on our network, but I'm not unreasonable and I really do look at every application that comes my way.

We've been involved in the online marketing industry since 1999, and we still to this day support mailers on our physical network with IPs, servers, bandwidth. In other words: We're mailer friendly and I want nothing more than to have quality mailers on my affiliate network in addition to the physical network. After all, we're going to help each other make money right? Point being is be straight, do the phone interview, and have confidence in what you do.

Daverio

Thank you for the great informations! Your tips will be very helpful to me as I will be applying to peerfly and maxbounty.

crumpet

I hear about a lot of people getting denied from cpa networks and it always seems to come down to the same reason and that's lack of planning.

I had the same problem when I first started, but since I PLANNED on how to advertise these networks offers, I started to get accepted.

CPA networks know when you're lying - and they know when you have a set idea on marketing cpa offers. Even if its a basic idea that might not make many sales, they will like the fact that you're not going in willy nilly trying to make an extra buck.

very nice tips.

jerry310

Good info indeed

crosbymkt

i did not even know it was a problem i just sent peerfly and maxbounty a message and showed them a site but now im feeling like i should have gone a bit more into detail and tried a bit harder because by reading this thread if they say there not interested its my own fault for being so casual about it all.

cpaddiction

I can literally get into 95% networks, but the rest 5% needs several attempts as they're so damn picky.

"Be honest" will not always work, especially for those larger networks who prefer experienced pubs rather than newbies.

onlinebusinessquick

When those CPA network call me on phone, what will they going to ask?

Because i am not an English speaking guy, so i want to have some preparation before i get the call.

Tezzsun

I must have bad luck, i tried going into MaxBounty and never got a word from them back
