On the other hand - now I get it - in fact it's more like they visit the tour with your refcode and remember the site url to come back typing it in directly for new trailers etc. - so in that case it could be that 1 pct. or maybe even more..

But that's the way it is, if you are a reseller you will never prevent them from buying the same product directly or somewhere else..
well, i was thinking realistically, if i sent 100 hits to a sponsor, about what % can i just discount as a "natural" loss. ie loss due to a variety of difficult to prevent circumstances? i think its about 15%

then i just wanted to break down what i thought the factors were and see if anyone else thought i was way off. interesting how the hoopla about zango, its impact is smaller than others, imo
