How to Join CJ Affiliate

To join, you should be up to 18 years and must have a website. Before joining the affiliate program, make sure your website is already generating much traffic. If you do not give them good results in six months, your account could get deactivated.

To join, log onto their website, and fill in the contact information. This will trigger a confirmation email and you will follow the link in the email to the page where you will set your account and give more information about your website.

You are not required to make any payments before you become an affiliate. After your account is set up, you can add your website to it.

Choosing a Program

CJ Affiliate has a network of affiliate programs for different niches. You can look for affiliate programs that relate to your niche. You can use the filters, or simply make use of the search option. You may filter by events, promotion, or link types.

You can also look for popular or fast-selling brands to publish on your site. You can search for advertisers that offer Pay per View or Pay per Click options. Make sure you look through the advertisers’ policies and conditions before you take up their ads. If you will love to start promoting through social media, you should also look at their policies.

CJ Affiliate Dashboard

CJ has a very simple and easy-to-navigate dashboard. It is well organized and you can quickly have a view of your account.

You will find many of its functions like advertisers, reports as a drop-down menu. This keeps the dashboard neat and organized, and it also makes it easy to find the different functionalities.

One thing to remember about CJ is that if you do not have a sale over a 6-month period, you will be removed from the network and all programs on the network. You will lose any unpaid commissions you have earned then too.

Not as bad as Amazon, but not as good as some other networks that don't have that requirement.

That's very true and accurate, Jean! I could remember this happened to me the very first time I got approved as an affiliate. It was really a bad experience for me. I deeply appreciate your comment!

Is Amazon another affiliate network? Do we really need an affiliate network before we can do affiliate marketing?

No, Amazon is a single merchant, not an affiliate network. An affiliate network offers multiple programs through one interface.
