So you want to affiliate
That's probably why you came here anyways, didn't you? If you didn't I just assume you clicked on this page randomly or something. Anyways, I'd love to affiliate, but unfortunately we have some little rules you have to follow to become and stay one. I know, BOO.Requirements
- Graphic and Web Design centred sites are preffered.
- No SiteBuilders! (sites "made" with wetpaint, Freewebs, Bravenet, Piczo, 000WebHost, etc.)
- If your site doesn't have any content (excluding splash, index, etc.), I'd rather you write a little before applying. Quality over Quanity, but I'd prefer at least 5 pages of good content before you apply.
- Try to keep Spelling and Grammar mistakes at a minimum. Yes, we are humans, and humans make mistakes and typos sometimes, but try your best to keep it so I can understand it.
- Chatspeak makes you sound like you're too lazy to actually type out the word. It also makes you sound just plain weird. Therefore...just don't do it. I'm not that fluent at it anyway (Heck, look at me, I only learned what TTYL meant just recently!) and if I can't understand what you're typing, what's the point?
- Clean sites, please! I need not explain what I mean by clean now, do I?
- I'm not especially picky about layouts, but c'mon, guys. Pleasant colors, well organized....
- Your site should be of equal work ethic and quality to mine. When I say "quality", I mean something like no graphics made on MSPaint.
- I don't have an affiliate limit but try not to have WAY too many, this tells me that you practically accept anyone who applies. I'll look at your affiliate's quality as well, so be ready!
- Hits aren't of concern to me.
- I don't have an updating limit or anything, but seriously, no one likes dead sites, and we certainly don't.
- Be pleasant to talk to! I still want to keep in touch with you, and I certainly don't want to keep in touch with mean people.
- Check back here and keep in touch often, just to let me know you're listening. I'll do the same for you. Heck, you could even try dropping me an email or too if you wanted too.
- Haha, affiliation is about friendship too! Try and get to know me before applying so I don't just look at the email and go, "Who the heck is this person?!" (If you were wondering, going "My name is _______ and I'm want to affiliate" doesn't count as me knowing you.)
- Since I'm putting your link up on all of my pages, I expect the same from you. There can be exceptions here, but not too often.
Oh, and one more thing. (Yes, I know you're getting tired and I'm sorry about that) Don't post in the tagboard asking to affiliate, I just don't think that really gives you some time to give some reasonable statements and such. You could post saying that you sent an email so I can check it, but that's different. Okay, I promise that's the last of my lecturing.
