We are learning how to run a paysite and growing steadily. From the beginning we I decided to pay out around 1/3 of the turn over to affiliates. If you dream you get more from any sponsor then I have a bridge to sell and any sponsor who tells you he pays more than 1/3 of his T/O to affiliates think long and hard about. Think about costs and profit.
Soon we will increase the 60% base on Rev Share, PPS has been a flop so far and maybe it's because we only pay $25 as a base. And here is your problem.
It costs money to build and run a site, content, programming, staff, hosting, advertising for affiliates, processing, offices, etc. all taking money from the pot. Yet affiliates demand more and more. At some point we will do a big promotion offering as much as we can to get more affiliates and more members. But it will only be what we can afford.
If you don't want to be shaved don't rush to the sponsors whose payouts don't look feasible and don't believe all the BS about upsells. This industry has one of the worse reputations for customer satisfaction. So how do all these sites upsell so much to so many wary surfers?
If you want to earn the maximum amount of money send your traffic to the sites that earn you the most per hour of working and not the highest % or PPS.
