I don't care about conversions, I don't care about stats, I don't care about one fucking thing but the number of zeros on my check.
You know that would be all fine and dandy if the sponsor said, "Just send us whatever traffic you can and we'll pay you what we think if fair for it." Then this would be ok... but they don't say that... they say, "We will pay you a set price for each sign up you generate." and then they decide what is fair, while you're thinking the terms of the deal are 'per sign up'. That's called theft and lying. aka Fraud.


How about a real world example... Travel Agents.. they make their money by arranging/referring sales to Cruise lines, Airlines, resorts, etc... do you think for a minute that the travel agent would do this if the airlines wree to say, "Just send us the customers, and we'll pay you what we think is a fair amount." Nope.

This whole ," You should only pay attention to the bottom line..." stance is complete and utter bullshit. Just another way of saying,"Shut up, close your eyes, and bend over."
