Bizarrely I was turned down today for an affiliate account with Dixons for use on my digital entertainment site. The reason I found it bizarre is that I already have am affiliate partnership with Dixons for exactly the same site. Now it might sound strange that I would want two but the one I have is for the price finder facility on the site and the profit is shared with another company. So I wanted one of my own for other promotions.
I always find it strange that a company would turn down a website for affiliation unless that website is clearly offensive, illegal or represent a bad image in some way. How will that company know if the site is going to make them any more money if they don’t even give the site a chance.
I think I will email the affiliate company and see if they can tell me why I was rejected, just for my own curiosity if nothing else.

I have had a few rejections from affiliate companies and what is annoying is you aren’t given a chance. What if I could make them millions?
They don’t know until they let you try. It is very bizzare at times. The other worry of course is they always want the site where you will use their offers. You never know if they will copy your ideas. After all lots of affiliate sites have a lot of affiliate marketers working for them or even run by them.

Exactly, how can they know how much money you could make them if they don’t give you a chance to prove it.
