Unfortunately I have nothing new to show them, except more free content from the same companies I'm allready sending them too. And I DON'T want them coming to me for content updates and videos. I'd much rather them return to the sponsor for the next few days and catch updates their. I don't make money off them being on my site, so I've always been of the mind to get them to the sponsor, and let them dazzle them with updates etc.
I have some sites ive been testing on and with the high first time visitor traffic (SE) I'm noticing less sales on sites that are fresh and give them a reason to stay on my site, as opposed to the sponsors. I suppose because they have a reason to click around my site, instead of the paysites.
With similar traffic numbers, and identicle sources, its paying about 30% MORE to not give them stuff to watch or look at. But also they are differant niches so that number is not so convincing to myself.
But I suppose lots of what I see could be chalked up to marketing method, since my main objective is always to get them to the sponsor asap, I guess it would only make sence that on those sites I do better. (I know the approach/principles/theory much more)
