C'mon people!?!?!?!
Do you really think
most surfers don't uncheck the crosses if they don't want them?
Do you really think a large portion of the ones that don't uncheck them DON'T cancel all 3 memberships 2 minutes after joining?
Seriously, you can't be that naive!
It's a fucking numbers game!
For all the "surfers" that know the game and join and cancel in 2 minutes ... and WEBMASTERS STILL GET PAID $30 - $50 per sale!
For all the "friendly fraud" from surfers and surfers wives that say "I didn't/my husband would never join an adult site" ... and get refunds or charge back which WEBMASTERS STILL GET PAID $30 - $50 per sale!
... there has to be a balance that maintains profitability.
That balance may include a cross sell or two.
Some of you sit there behind your keyboard with all these accusations about how these companies take advantage of surfers YET you disregard the parasitic actions of freeloading join/cancel/friendly fraud surfers
AND WEBMASTERS that want huge PPS $$$ before the program makes a profit.
If that's the way you feel then put your $$$ where your mouth is and
ONLY promote 50/50 reveshare ... that's fair, right?
If 60+% of surfers take a $1.95 trial and cancel - you're cool with less than $1 per sale on 60+% of your traffic, right?
... or less than $12.50 on a $25 no trial join, right?
You can still profitably buy google traffic and submit passes on that money, couldn't you?
See, but you won't do that! You won't because you don't want to be paid from every program like an annuity. You like your $$$ one or 2 weeks after the sale BEFORE the program can even make a profit. You won't because you'd go broke and have to find a real job because slingin' porn would NOT pay your bills!
Sure, there are some programs like Shaps, FTV, ATK and others where it might be worthwhile ... but the vast majority are not ... and you know it ... and YOU won't take that risk!
Yet, these companies are bad guys?
Moral of this diatribe?
Lots of hypocritical mu'fuckas in this business on both sides of the fence.
