I am not a big-time affiliate, but I have an opinion on this. CWH certainly has some really hot American girls on cam, and the twins Brooke & Vikki especially are unique enough that I was able to send a fair amount of private chat sales just from one of my new blogs I have been playing around with. However, the less-than-lifetime revshare for the private chat minutes and the fact that an affiliate has to send traffic with two different referral id's are both serious limitations to the program. After all what if a surfer follows my link for the site membership and signs up for private chat minutes only or vice versa, a surfer follows my link for private chat minutes and subscribes to the site? Then I make nothing on the traffic at all, right?

I guess that this is a function of using a simple CCBill back-end solution for both payouts which is very limiting. After all, if an affiliate takes a gamble promoting a smaller program like this it helps to know that if one sends a whale that spends thousands of dollars over a few years time it will pay off. Otherwise any of the affiliates with a lot of traffic probably wouldn't be enticed and they'll just send their traffic elsewhere for the big PPS payouts or lifetime revshare. A new version of the program should take this into consideration.

PS- If it was my program Brooke & Vikki would have their own site!
