Do they ask to see a URL of yours when you apply? I'm thinking that I need to put up something non adult with a non adult email address.

Like a kayaking blog or something.

I can't remember if epn ask to see a website, but most do - so I would say yes.

I got into epn at the very beginning, but know that they have tightened everything up - so I can't help there.

I do know that they are available to use on the following networks though (last I heard) - so maybe try joining through them.

Pepperjam Network
Mediaplex
TradeDoubler
Affilinet

but I have not joined those - so I can't confirm.

Sale: 10.00% EUR, 5.00 € EUR

Some do Performance Incentives also.

Yes, they do want to see a website, and I had a mainstream site I used in the application. I checked around and was told they only accept a few applications. That was a couple of years ago. I have heard it's a great program if you can get in.
