Anti-affiliate bias is a huge problem online. Many advertising networks have prejudice in regards to affiliate, yet if you replaced the word affiliate with 'woman' or 'Asian' the true nature of their disgusting prejudice would be exposed.

When was the last time you saw a website saying it wouldn't allow women to advertise there? Yet similar oppression against the humble affiliate is widely accepted, and must be challenged.

Therefore, let's make a thread all about self-serve ad platforms that aren't filled with vile prejudice. If you know any, I don't.

I know all networks put their prejudice to the side if you're spending $xx,xxx a month, but this is more for people with x,xxx at most testing budgets.

POF doesn't need to be mentioned because "Ben" has already told everybody on every forum about all the affiliates making $353,7586,67 a day on autopilot using POF. So POF is best left to Warrior Forum noobs, and in this thread we discuss serious companies.

Are there any though?

Hope that helps ;)
 


Facebook, Google. Any of the platforms that are publicly listed. They have a reputation to protect, and for the most part, affiliates are pollution.

This is such a goofy analogy. You're really going to class "affiliate" with "woman" and "asian" to liken anti-affiliate ad network policies to racism?

You do realize your analogy would be equally suited to "frauder" or "scammer" right? Not that an affiliate is as bad as these (usually), but just to point out the ridiculousness of your argument...
 
Unfortunately the reputation of affiliates will always have a degree of negativity attached to it because of a small percentage of them being unethical. There's always going to be that group of people that ruin the fun for everyone else.

I also agree that comparing affiliate negativity to racism or sexism is a little much.
 
50onRed, Trafficvance, PlentyofFish, Lead Impact, TapIt, SiteScout, and the list goes on.

There's probably 100 of them I can name off the top of my head.
 
Quit asking for handouts and test yourself.

If they don't like you for who you are, cloak 'em. Creates a larger barrier to entry for the competition anyway, which means longevity and higher ROIs.

Maybe I needed different words for my post, I was outraged by the discrimination shown is all. But some of the ad networks posted above are not exactly "affiliate friendly" - they prefer the more fleshed out sites over the single landing page and often have publisher approval first (what I mean by phrase not affiliate-friendly). Some I have not seen though and will look in thanks.

Of course, one would attempt to get their ads running in such other places as well. But an affiliate-friendly network would allow for less of a fleshed-out approach, acknowledging the affiliate ways: high-pressure landing pages, numerous approaches, etc. But also have several varieties of well-trafficked niche sites involved.

Even some replies here reveal extreme prejudice, equating the affiliate with scammer just because the affiliate is taken advantage of by scammers often (made to run secretly scam ads). This is the broad-brush approach taken by most boutique ad networks as well (the banning of anything know to be exploited by scammer once), and one that I'd like to avoid.

Maybe there is no way, other than to contact the webmaster directly. Sometimes a webmaster can actually be a cheaper, less judgmental way to go. But if there is a good banner placement network without the broad hatred of affiliate and with the trafficked sites, this is a place to put it. My apologies for not a better wording in the first one. Thank you.
