Why do affiliates sign up for programs...
And then dont do shit to promote them! 
-
I think alot of them want to see your promo tools, hosted galleries, or free content....and then if they don't like them they move on.
When I opened my program I decided to put all the promo tools and hosted galleries right out there in the open, so a pretty high % of people who sign up for my program do send some traffic.sig too big -
chances are that if the program gave a peak into the admin area before the signup, they wouldn't have that many people sign up and not do anything.Comment

often times its b/c the sponsors front page doesn't give enough information, and i'd have to sign up to find out if its got what im looking for.Comment

Pretty much sums it up, and as an affiliate I do like it when, as you said programs put the tools out in the open because it can / does save both parties time and hastle should it not be a good fit. I'm not saying put every hosted gallery out there (becaus a lot of freeloading surfers have figured out they can just click through to aff. programs and grab galleries), but at least a sampling of them and an indication of how many.Originally posted by Lenny2
It is annoying when you signup for a sponsor that promises "tons of hosted galleries" (when what you are looking for is hosted galleries) when in fact they only have 5.

you often have to sign up to se what content is avalible.
Instead off blasting the webmaster you should ask yourselv "what is wrong with my site since the webmasters dont promote it" You have their email-adress, send them a mail and ask, and do someting about itComment

Most program owners I've talked to have told me that only 10% of affiliates who sign up will send any noticeable amount of traffic.
So if you want 100 active affiliates then you need to get 1000 people to sign up for your program.

A lot of the times when I sign up for a affiliate program looking for decent tools. If those tools arent there I find a sponsor who does have those tools.
Generally i'm looking for enough FHG/FHS to build with.
If there is only 5-6 for example I move on.
I have a Porn Blog that's actually fun to read. Like it? Link To It.Comment

I'm signed up to 300 sponsors (including ones that use CCBilll Affiliate program) but I only promote 5 sponsors.
I signup to every sponsor to check out their FHG and content, the majority suck.Comment

there are pros and cons of both.
If you make your tools public then the surfers just rape your FHG's and don't sign up.
If you make them private to webmasters. Surfers sign up as webmasters to rape your gallerys and don't sign up.
I've found that by verifing webmasters, before allowing access to FHG's and tools, increases sign ups. The surfers, having no adult website of their own, are declined and the percentage of webmasters actively promoting increases.Comment

Why not simply contact anyone of the company and ask for the decent tools you need? You signed up already and something must interested you to sign-up.Originally posted by BoogieCFZA lot of the times when I sign up for a affiliate program looking for decent tools.

Make some examples of galleries+content available in the non member area.I love big boobs.Comment

Many times a program will claim to have galleries for all of their sites then won't actually have any for the site I wanted to promote. This is most often true with sponsors that have straight and gay sites. The gay sites won't have any galleries at all or the straight sites will have new and often updated galleries while the gay sites will have a few from 2 or 3 years ago.Last edited by mardigras; 05-29-2005, 08:30 AM..Comment
