So upsells and traffic shuffling is all they are doing on the outset. But on closer examination, they also usually offer their own stats. And it is at this point I start smelling a rat.
My message in the end is this.
Find a sponsor with "AUDITABLE" stats

Usually the people who whine the most about how it's not possible are the ones who are pissed that they have to compete with per-signup programs.
Dan, your rhetoric would have some meaning if perhaps you weren't trying to push your own "auditable" $100 per join program the whole while.
We can and do pay $35-40 per $2.99 signup and we are profitable. Margins are smaller than they used to be which only means that it costs more to get a good per-signup program going.
And if you want to know why it is that we don't offer "auditable" stats (speaking on behalf of many per-signup programs here) it's because we dictate who the processor is and change it depending upon who is having problems or not having problems. It would be ridiculous to try and track per signups from a 3rd party when you are using 6-10 different processors... each affiliate would have to have an account with each one of them.
Jealousy is not becoming... and I guarantee you wont hear one per-signup sponsor whining about how it's not possible or how everybody is resorting to "scams".
