I'm glad I only sent a minimal amount of traffic to my one sponsor that used WSB ---- for 63 days of promotion I sent an average of 90 hits a day as a test, highest day was 290 uniques, lowest day was day 1 with 24 sent, got 8 signups for a ratio of 1:708, I would love to have sent 1,000 uniques a day to them, but NO rebills showing at all. Total owing from them is only $79.80, but I'm not holding my breath on getting it.
I have now, as of yesterday, diverted that traffic to other sponsors that use other processors. As well, when considering new sponsors, I will be avoiding those that are using Website Billing. If you are an affiliate of any sponsors using WSB I suggest you do the same, there are plenty of sponsors out there who will ensure that you actually get PAID and on time like you deserve. If you run a sponsorship program and are still using WSB, I urge you to look for a new processor.
It has been weeks and weeks since any posts here from anyone representing WSB, and in those posts the basic message was that cheques are going out. However, it is obvious that webmasters are still being kept in the dark as to their account status with wSB, many remain unpaid or only partially paid for certain periods in January etc.
Sorry WSB. You made this what it is by your innaction and inability to take even five minutes out of your day to send out a mass email or post a message here to your webmasters and affiliates as to the status of monies that YOU OWE THEM. Good luck with your future business endeavors, but I won't be a part of it.
Thank you.
