Fully understand this and if you can come up with a solution please tell us.

The situation is we get this traffic, we profit from it, so we want to pass on the profits because it has to come from affiliates efforts.

Are we unique or is this a usual thing about traffic just arriving and not being associated with an affiliate? It only really started to snow ball this year.
