Nah, after the promo they are only paying .50/free join, there's tons of other options in cams that will pay a minimum of $1/free join and will have hundreds of live girls. Also, as Punker stated in the original post, the surfer going through an affiliate link that clicks "register later" (which will be the majority) will get directed to a page full of ads. At that point they will probably click an ad, (MFC most likely) and they will mostly likely be gone forever. Why would an affiliate send their traffic with a setup like that, where there is probably less than a 2% chance their cookied surfer returns.

It appears they are trying to model the original cam4 (pre tipping) and create sticky traffic to sell ad spots or filter traffic to their own affiliate links. They need to stop dumping money into things like the skin here, dump the affiliate program and put all their resources into getting amateurs to cam there and then pay for some cheap traffic that will then stick.

When cam4 first started it was filled with dozens of second and third world amateur cammers (Latin America and eastern Europe) all vying for the contest money because a grand a month was huge for them, chaturbate needs to attract the same. Its senseless to try and garner all this traffic (affiliate and in house) when there's hardly anyone camming live on the site.
