I get your point and the guys submitting FHG, using sponsor content and copying what everyone else does accounts for how many.
Yes I turned you down.
After a few weeks spamming your board and only replying to threads asking for girls on my site and often asking for my content, I saw the value of having you as an affiliate and doing your work for you. I can employ a student on $30 a day to look after your site and do your work for you.
Your site is not worth it to us. Maybe it's worth it to others but the traffic I saw was very poor and worse than TGP traffic.
Now you can tell everyone I have a crap site. Blah Blah Blah.
Sausage you still selling the site with our bargain basement content on the tour. How well does it do? QuaShe is looking for sites if you'll do his job for him. 
Do you know what this thread lacks?
One sponsors saying, "Maybe it would be cheaper to get some guys doing the grunt work for $30 a day."
They could submit to Freeones because QuaShe does not have the time to and it's not worth him doing it himself, as you can see. |
yes, newbies may not send a shit load of traffic right of the bat, but we were all newbies at one point. Some will learn and succeed while others will give up because they can't do it right. Maybe one day the newbies that you think are useless will end up being the next big wig in this industry. Never underestimate people. Steve's point is that if you only use in house people to drive traffic to your site you limit yourself. You are stuck coming up with all the new ideas to generate traffic and hope that it works while you're footing the bill for the bandwidth being use and all the other shit.. than you have the outside affiliates who , in most cases (unless they're using sponsor free hosting) paying their own hosting bills, their own PA's, paid spot etc.. Also, they try to think up new ways to get traffic. So, imagine that there are 5000 newbie affiliates, 2500 of them are not bad and always coming up with new ways of getting good traffic. Than you have your in house affiliates which they are not that many.. Maybe 100.. they are all doing the exact same thing on a daily basis according to what you told them to do. You pay all the hosting, all the partner accounts, paid spots and their daily salary.
now tell me, why would anyone go with in house affiliates when it would just be financially stupid? Just because someone is a newbie it doesn't mean that they can't succeed. Like I said before, we were ALL newbie once.
