I think that is one of the real questions which should be asked. Did they communicate the policy change on gift cards to affiliates prior to putting it in place?
I sent Pimproll 2600 raws this year according to their stats. No sales but over 400 join hits. Now that isn't not that bad considering it is just remnant links but I think it's been three or four years since I made a PR sale. It's a little strange considering I usually get a sale every now and then with other sponsors from links right next to it. We're probably talking 20,000 raws. It's certainly possible but I've always seen it as an odd sort of statistical anomaly. I could never figure out why it was happening. I quit sending them traffic long ago when I was seeing 1:6,000 ratios in a time when 1:1,000 was common for me. I'm not saying that they shave but I am stating my experiences with them and that they did not work out for me. I really should spend a day knocking out those remaining links which go to them. Each year I make it a little less but I'm still basically sending them free traffic.
