For paid tgp spots a gallery has to make 15 signups (assuming the spot costs $200 + bandwidth). So itīs quite OK if the conversions are like this. There are bigger programs which donīt offer more pps.
That really does depend on where the traffic comes from. Some are sending lots of 1.5 months memberships and others are sending lots of 3 month memberships.

The average over the whole lot is 2 months. The thing that allows us to pay out this amount is the "Unknown Traffic" that has got great ratios and just arrives.

What Eva and I did in the beginning is sit down and budget for the site. Hosting, management, processing and affiliates, support, etc. At the moment the affiliates do not get what we budgeted for them at 60%. So this is trying to get it straight and hopefully encourage some more to send traffic.

We do have a second processor, MVC, which is not included in affiliates figures. But they pick up less than 5% of the joins and we've included that in the base rates of 60%.
