NeverBlue Application… Denied.
Somehow I wasn’t surprised. I had read in the Warrior Forum and in CPA ebooks that it can be difficult to get into CPA networks like Neverblue. Considering I had no prior experience in CPA promotion, it’s not surprising that my application got denied. This is the generic email I got from them:

It would be just my like that Neverblue tried contacting me when my phone was off while I was watching Despicable Me with my hubby and two kids at the theater today. Oh well. Try again next time. This won’t be the last time they hear from me.
Frustrated with Commission Junction
I’ve been a member of CJ.com for years. Unfortunately, I hadn’t made any money with it because I was focused on selling things in a certain industry, plus I was also selling my own graphics and tangible goods. CJ has deactivated and deleted my account on numerous occasions, the most recent was just earlier this year.
But I reactivated my account because I wanted to create a Halloween costume site. I built one and tried to log into CJ. Had problems there. When I fixed that, I logged in and applied to a few costume sites. Some automatically accepted, a few others were manual.
Unfortunately, many links sent me back to the login page. Apparently, it’s the login loop from hell. After searching google, I cleared my cache, and made sure that CJ was not blocked by Firefox. It seemed to work just fine after that.
Fast forward to now. After working on my costume site off and on, I went back to adding more content to it. I returned to CJ to get more links. But guess what? The links sent me back to login loop from hell once again. I tried to clear the cache and checked the “allow” list. Everything seemed to be in order.
I checked CJ in IE as well as Flock. CJ didn’t work in either site. I visited Linksynergy, similar to CJ. I had no problem with their links. It’s gotta be internal issues in CJ. But I never received a response from them the first time I had an issue with the login page. I’m frustrated because CJ and Linksynergy are the 2 biggest sites in terms of having many companies to choose from. In fact, CJ is the largest but they’re not doing anything to fix their site. Booo.. a bit stressed.
Update: After several hours of wanting to pull every last strand of hair out of my scalp and tossing my computer out of the window, hubby told me to step away from it. We went for a midnight drive while the kids slept at home safe with their grandparents. We ate some McDonald’s while I vented about my issues with CJ.
I felt better when we got home. While hubby visited ebay and other sites on his computer, I returned to the CJ login loop.
I checked the firefox settings a few minutes and realized that I had neglected to check the custom settings for the history. Lo and behold I found out that Firefox was still blocking Cj. Once I unblocked it, everything worked out fine again. *and the crowd goes wild*
