Most affiliates know what kind of sites they are promoting, but unfortunately for surfers, the sites that have shitloads of great content that updates all the time just don't pay big bucks.
Seems this might be your experience but I know of sites that are doing it very different.

Guys when you look at your conversion rates and see them getting worse look to PKs attitude for the reason why. You can only con a surfer so many times before he says enough.

Because one does it does not mean the rest should follow.

The best move we ever made was to throw open the site to the surfer. Restores their confidence and gets sales.

Epic, why don't you try that?
