Hey Fuckers... Benny here, I oversee the GGWCash program. Reena and Syl do most of the heavy lifting on the boards tho, so you've probably seen them posting a whole lot more than me... Anyway, regarding the productivity notices and the comments here...

We have been evaluating traffic since we launched in the affiliate marketplace back in feb. We have lots of webmasters who convert really well with the the initial sale as well as from the trial to full membership. But, as with ALL pay per sale programs there are a handful of accounts and/or traffic sources that don't convert well. Most of the time it's just that the traffic doesn't match up that well with the product. Occasionally we get WM's who over promise... But anyone who understands the affiliate model knows how this works.

So we've identified a very small group of accounts that have really poor trial conversion rates and we need to work with them to improve the rates, or switch them over to a rev share program or a full price only tour. We can't just lose money, the program will fall apart and then all our webmasters, even the ones with the good converting traffic will be out of luck..

Regarding the statement that a shit load of these notices went out... I can tell you it was less than 10 because I reviewed and approved the list personally.

Regarding updates... The top right hand corner of the members area index page is dedicated to the latest updates, which are daily.....

Regarding the rest of the content... Screen caps aren't ideal and we have a shitload of new material that is in process from the spring break activities from the past couple of months. But more important that what we have or what we don't have with content is the fact that we have MANY accounts that convert from the trial just fine. Including accounts that promote on World Sex and The Hun. If the members area was truly bad none of the traffic would convert...

So, apoologies if the notices come as a shock or they've created any anxiety... But running a successful profitable program is our goal, which benefits all of you. We want to be around for the long term, as I'm sure all of you do....

Don't panic and get all bent out of shape, just work with our account reps to see what can be done to improve your numbers. We didn't hold back any money, and we're not kicking anyone out of the program... So let's focus on making some money together....
