That's exactly what most people don't understand. Zango and other adware companies do not have sites of their own that they promote for sponsors. That's why all advertisers rely on overwriting cookies to make sales because otherwise surfers would just close the popup window and adware advertisers would never make a dime.
Adware users, both sponsors and affiliates, NEED, and please read this carefully,
NEED legit affiliates. If the only people in a program are adware users, they will only steal from each other. Let them, that's what they deserve!
If another sponsor is popping over YOUR sites, SUE THEM! These cases have been won against other adware before, they will be won again. The ONLY people who can win a lawsuit against adware are SPONSORS, not affiliates. Don't know how to do this? No idea how to go about it? Contact Ben Edelman! You want someone to monitor your sites for you? Contact Kellie! That's what they do for a living.
Zango and other adware are not picky, they'll pop up anywhere, over any site, and steal from anyone and everyone if the keywords/URL's are right.
SPONSORS can put a stop to adware by suing other sponsors that pop on their sites. Affiliates can sue sponsors for breach of agreement when sales are blatantly stolen, the sponsor knows about it and doesn't do a thing to stop it.
Affiliates can help put a stop to it by dropping sponsors that allow it until all they have left are adware advertisers in the program.
Do you know what that means? Does anyone understand this?
Adware popups will appear on free search engine listings, on ppc listings, type-ins, bookmarks, anything that has your URL in it, the source does NOT matter. So if only adware advertisers are left in a program the SPONSOR is the biggest loser of all because all FREE traffic will becomes a commissionable sale if affiliates use adware... OR
Sponsor will steal from every affiliate in his program until no one makes any money anymore and move on to another program. Who's the sponsor gonna steal from? Himself?? How much good would it do to use adware without affiliates??
Sponsors lose regardless of how you look at it.
Without affiliates, how many sponsors would survive?
