I'm promoting one that is near it right now. I've long since ceased putting up new links for them but still send them a few hundred hits a day.

Some people don't like it when others talk about ratios. I love doing it myself. The numbers are a much better indicator than someone saying "try these guys they convert like mad" (How often do we see this shit with a ref code nearby?) or "they've never converted for me". If you don't merely stop at the numbers themselves but also try to understand the reason and reality behind them then they simply do not lie. When properly understood they are a great tool. Sure it is useless if you only post your ratio and nothing else. But if you explain the type of traffic, how your other sponsors convert, etc. it can be some valuable information. Especially when combined with the experiences of dozens of other affiliates.
