And every time I've tried to get onboard as an affiliate with a mainstream product that I KNOW will sell (Iphones a few years ago for instance)...I go out of my way to get a great domain for it, host it on a non-adult hosting company, get everything in order...and then they reject my affiliate application.

I'm missing something with it for sure. I've had buddies email me with great new "can't miss" mainstream stuff...and it flopped.

I've had an online clothing store. Flopped.

I must have the worst luck at "mainstream" of anyone on the planet.
Just about every mainstream affiliate company, especially the CPA companies and networks, require an affiliate manager actually speaking to you on the phone before they approve you. The amount of fraud the CPA companies deal with, especially from India webmasters, is absolutely staggering, so usually as soon as they hear an American voice on the other line you are approved right away.

I still love adult and will always have a presence in it, but more and more I shift my available time to mainstream projects and the return is much better, especially with my Adsense sites...
