I’ve blogged about this in the past however it must have got lost during the recent blog migration
Is it just me that is fed up with the standard Commission Junction deactivated advertiser email?
You have received this email because one or more of the advertisers you are affiliated with in the Commission Junction network has recently been temporarily deactivated.
Why CJ just can’t let us know who the merchant is, what the problem is it would save a lot of logging on and searching for the report.
And another thing when the merchant is reactivated why don’t affiliates get notified? Surely it makes sense in order to get links back live on affiliate websites.
Take a moment Commission Junction to review your communications procedures, you may find that a whole load of potential super affiliates will take more notice of what you have to offer.
Oh while I’m in moaning mode in the UK what CJ term an advertiser is a merchant and a publisher is an affiliate.

Keith. No, you are not alone. It drives me crazy as well. I am also thinking that they send more emails about deactivation then actually they have deactivated the advertisers
. I wish CJ went out of business, when I started in AM 1.5 years ago this was the network I started on. I got some warnings from them and was really scared of their emails that they will not pay me or various issues when the cheque was lost. Now I am glad that only small portion of income comes from CJ.
This problem seems to be getting worse with CJ, several people I know have had the same problem.
I too got sick and tired of the CJ e-mails. I moved to Amazon and haven’t looked back. But, I have a couple sites now that have niches that CJ could help me with. But how frusterating is it to see that e-mail? And sometimes the publishers don’t come back online so all the links go bad. I had that happen to me. A major niche partner maybe went under, or the like, and now I have no one to fill the gap. Haven’t had anyone to fill the gap in over a year, and all CJ could tell me was that “I had to contact the affiliate” how annoying is that I called all the numbers listed on his website still nothing
how can you be in business when you don’t answer the phone
I don’t know but that’s how CJ affiliates think
