As for signature remark it stands. I get flamed by people who need to sell their signatures because they need the money or have nothing of their own to promote. Running a paysite is so hard a fool like me can do it and make a lot of money.
Why don't others?
Maybe I should start a thread asking people. |
So everybody should run a paysite ??? You should have no affiliates sending you traffic then ?
The affiliate I send to partnership programs (according too your 57 000 alexa rank) is probably higher then the traffic you get on your paysite. I'm not trying to diss you but there are many different ways to make money in this business and yours isn't necesarry the best one.
And the comment about not sending you traffic was more about the paysite running / automation part of things taht makes one paysite convertions slightly better then another.
And the reason why shaving is in place is because :
1 - 5-10 % of affiliate sales aren't necessary a big deal for affiliates, but are for the sponsor
2 - The sponsors started offering so much to the affiliate that the competition is really hard to stand. You are directly competing with compagnies such as bangbros/ox who have TONS of qualiy exclusive content and offer access to 25 sites for the price of one and can afford to pay high payouts.
3 - TONS of people are in this business for the quick overnight money.
Why do sponsor do cross sales ? You have to agree with me that it's like scamming the surfers...
It's the same way of thinking with the webmasters.
I'd say that most programs don't shave, but lots do.
