ClassAffiliates.com WTF???
Ok, I signed up for an account at ClassAffiliates.com - the dutch program for ClassMedia sites, such as the well known Oldje.com. I knew that the first version of their affiliate program was a complete mess after its launch a few years ago. So I wanted to check their current version of the program and if they have promo tools for legal tubes.
Well, just in case you were wondering the same, they don't. Only picture and movie FHG with NO gallery exporter tool (just a very simple text version with predefined format). Payouts are Check and Wire only Ok, but the reason I'm posting this is a news message that pops up right after you login. It contains a lot of whining how hard it is to run an affiliate programs and that most affiliates are cheaters. And this: Quote:
https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1035079 Oh, in case you're wondering where all the money goes that they don't pay their affiliates - ClassMedia is one of the founders of that ACIUF Antipiracy Union (together with the president of IMC/Payserve). https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1059696 I always thought that this Antipiracy Union is a great idea, however this makes it shine a little less bright, I'd say. Sorry, ClassAffiliates. In that news message you talk of "mutual respect", while you treat your affiliates like shit. So, if you want to get paid for your work, I'd rather stay away from ClassAffiliates. |

Why bother having an affiliate program if you're just gonna be a dick towards your affiliates.

Sounds like they are just bragging about how incompetent they are to run an affiliate program.

Because a lot of affiliates are stupid and will send traffic regardless. For instance I bet many reading this right now who have been in business for years aren't even aware that Nasty Dollars stats aren't first page raws or uniques. I know this is the case because I see someone showing they don't know this every single month without fail. So many affiliates are just dumb. I hate to say it because I'm an affiliate myself but it's true. And so you get sponsors who try to take advantage of the combined stupidity and naivety.

in the end go with what makes you the most money. those rules suck but if they sell hand over fist it would be worth it.
or you can restrict your promotion to those programs which fit your lofty white knight ideals of what an affiliate program should be and make no sales. |
