Paid Traffic Is Not Allowed As the Main Source

CJ Affiliate, formerly Commission Junction, is an online advertising network founded in 1998 that connects advertisers with publishers to run affiliate programs. The platform, based in the U.S. and Canada, requires publishers to have a blog or social media presence with high-quality, unique content, a privacy policy, and at least 10,000 monthly visitors, primarily from the U.S. or Canada. Paid traffic is not allowed as the main source.

To join, publishers visit cj.com, register, verify their email, and complete a network profile detailing their website and promotion methods. CJ provides tracking, reporting, and payment handling for both parties. The platform is free to join and offers programs across various niches, with tools like banners and product feeds.
