Takeaways

1. Make sure your website is top-notch

Actionable advice: Get a top-level domain for your website and design it, so it looks clean and professional and the content is easy to read. Create the necessary pages (About, Contact, Terms & Privacy) and make them easily accessible. Add content regularly and ensure it is relevant to the industry of the affiliate program’s audience. Ensure you have a decent audience already. Nowadays, affiliate managers can check your traffic figures.

2. Apply for Relevant Affiliate Programs

Actionable advice: If your website or social media channel topic differs from the affiliate program’s industry, don’t waste your time sending an application because it most probably will be rejected.

3. Take a Look at Terms of Service

Actionable advice: Read the Terms of Service of the affiliate program you want to join and ensure you are a good fit for it.

4. Don’t Provide Fake or Incomplete Information

Actionable advice: Take the application seriously and fill it with the right details. Use a professional email address and offer enough details on the specific questions, not 2-3 words answers.

5. Explain Properly How You Will Promote the Products or Services

Actionable advice: Explain to affiliate managers how will you promote their product and plan to make sales. Ensure you read the Terms of Service document and do not mention any forbidden methods.

6. Ensure Your Application is Errors-Free

Actionable advice:  Make sure your affiliate application is grammatical and spelling errors-free. If you are not happy with your level of English, you can hire a proofreader on Fiver who can proofread your application template for $5 or so.

7. Do You Have Someone That Can Vouch For You?

Actionable advice:  Make a habit of visiting forums, groups and attend conferences for affiliates. You can connect with affiliates and managers to help you step up your affiliate game.

8. Get in touch with your affiliate manager

Actionable advice:  After you signup for an affiliate program, search on their website or Facebook and Linkedin, contact details of the affiliate manager, and politely introduce yourself to them.

9. Use a Stepping Stone

Actionable advice: Level up your affiliate game step by step. Start first with beginner-friendly affiliate marketing programs and networks. When you have good results with those, you can start approaching high-ticket programs with higher requirements.

10. Follow up after your application was rejected

Actionable advice: Follow up after a rejection message and ask the affiliate manager for details about rejection. Sometimes is a misunderstanding that you can easily correct and get yourself approved.
