Affiliate programs should add in better title and desc tags and some body text, that all relates. This will help you get better targeted phrase words very quickly, I call this 33% SEO.

A paysite may already get 1000 hits a day from the SE's, make this adjustments, get 1300 - then they will probably come back down to 1000. Reason is, they went from a YAHOO SEO style to a GOOGLE style...

So, the 33% seo rule didn't really make them anymore money, so they give up. This is where most are, they have put in good title/desc before, with little to no difference. So why continue?

The key isn't the tours, the key is the entire damn affiliate program structure, from the linking codes, internal linking, to how they are linking too, to how they build hosted galleries, does every hosted gallery have a unique title/desc/body text, every tour page, every promo page? Do galleries use anchor text - do graphic links use title tags?

And pure SEO paysites does not convert affiliate traffic very well. Don't we create custom adword landing pages to target words, for conversions? Wouldn't it makes since this would affect affiliate traffic too?

Don't be too quick to push all your sponsors to follow the SEO route.
