I've got a new review type blog and I applied a couple days ago to Netflix. I've got a review of Satellite Direct and Full Movies as last posts, should I take them down or is that irrelevant? what else should/could I take in mind if I want to get approved? Thanks!

      I own a movie-related site that has a ton of original content and very little advertising at all, and Netflix rejected me as an affiliate.

      So by my rough math, my site is 7.9 times better than yours and I couldn't get in. I don't like your chances, honestly

        Wow, I'm really f$%d now! Someone should have told me that before I set the site up and put all the work in about a month ago! lol, that's crazy!

        I wouldn't doubt your site is that much better than mine, and If netflix uk already rejected it, the canada us will too, no?

        The whole reason I built this site was to sell netflix! :O

        Anyway would temporarily deleting my other reviews and ads help?

    It's all about the $$$traffic$$$.
    They want to see some statistics before they entrust their brand with you.

    If you don't have some strong results to show them up front, you can find brokered netflix offers through various affiliate networks.

        Your best bet at this time:

        Netflix -> Affiliate Network -> You

        When you have massive traffic and the statistics to prove it you can try:

        Netflix -> You

        and cut out the middle man, but you'd really have to prove that you can push massive traffic to deal directly with netflix.

        For now there is literally hundreds of networks that have the netflix offer so you can start there.

          Oh! I thought there was only one way! :rolleyes: I thought the only way was through the google affiliate network, which is how I did.

          Right so there's hundred of affiliate networks that offer netflix!? that's great!!!! How would one go about finding them? and would deleting my Satellite Direct and Fullmovies reviews help with most of them? or is it irrelevant? thanks!

    We will be switching to the Google Affiliate network, but won't be done with the transition for another few weeks. In the meantime - and until you get switched over to Google, the linkshare links will continue to work as they have.

    I was accepted into netflix's affiliate offer with only having 5 article on my site, through Google affiliates, that would be your best bet. I'm still able to promote them right now if I wanted to, but all my sites are in the medical field.

        I'm not sure if that look at your site or not, it's been a couple years since I applied, sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

    my site has 300+ pages and gets 1k+ pageviews a day and got rejected :confused: hard not to be annoyed when you see people get accepted after throwing up a blog and dumping 3 short posts on it. doesn't look like i can re-apply either. what are some of the aforementioned other networks that let you promote Netflix, or are they now google affiliate network only?
