So let me get this straight. You pay 4 cents per blind link, IF the surfer clicks on a link on your first ad page. But then you pop-up a shit load of additional windows behind and after the first page, which do not have the affiliates linking code on them. So you get tons of free traffic and your webmasters get a big fat zippo, zilch, not-a.

So what does the webmaster get from your wonderful program...let's see, a slim chance of getting a click through on the first paying window...at least 3 script "click here to download" type windows, 3 pop-up windows, and then a hidden delayed window, which continues to spawn a few more windows.

I'm sure you have your fans, but ANYONE, and I Mean ANYONE could make a ton more with their own, much less annoying, exit chain.
yup, welcome to the world of pay per click affiliate programs....

this why I've never sent SI a single click, not that I think I'll egt ripped off or Ron is going to run off to Vegas to play Blackjack with my money...but I know what my clicks are worth...

also, remember who sends to a blindclick program...people who either have total shite traffic to begin with or people who don't know the value of their traffic....

If Mojo and Ron can make money from that traffic, and apparantly they do, then more power to them...

but it's hardly malicious...
