You need to watch your traffic more and when you see a sponsor who consistently doesn't perform you need to pull all your links and blacklist that company.
I suspect there are many players who just keep their affiliate programs up to see how much money they can take from poor affiliates don't know any better. Find some of the few sponsors left who need you and send them traffic. They are still out there.

Wisely I kept things the same to see what would happen and whether it would last. Wouldn't you know it no new sales for months with the same traffic. Gee I wonder what happened there?

Anyone else small the unmistakeable whiff or something that can be changed?
I've mad it no secret that IMO this industry is on a downward spiral. The Tubes that generate tons of money don't generate shit. What they do is take 100 sales and turn them into 10 sales. The key is they were other peoples 100 sales and the 10 are now theirs. All legit business and they won't complain. Until the advertisers can't afford to advertise because free sites are taking their business.
You want to hurt Tubes? Hurt the platforms that support them. Tell surfers where to find free dating and cam sites. The effect will be proportionate to the number who do it. The less dating and cam buyers going via ads on Tubes, will hurt Tubes. Sending traffic to dating and cam sites who advertise on Tubes, is suicide IMO. Mofos own one of the biggest tube sites in the business, sending them traffic is like sending your enemy bullets to shoot you with.
