There are no secret affiliates out there with tons of sales to send to a revshare solo girl site.

Solo sites need lots of updates so that the remaining good affiliates have content to put out there.

What pisses me off are the sites that could be promoting the newer solo girl sites but for whatever reason keep featuring 5 year old content of Raven Riley, Melissa Midwest, Kate, Dawson, Jordan Capri, Ariel Rebel etc I gave up trying to reach those guys.
Thats a pretty silly post, you are highly underestimating the combined amount of sales you get from what you dont consider big affiliates. Your site is a huge success at 10k+, and without the combination of all your other affiliates in your 500+ list, you wouldn't be CLOSE to that. They may get alot more, but the combination of the rest of your affiliates account for alot of sales.

You can't solely depend on the likes of freeones, PT, YDG

Your large affiliate database is what sparked your huge spike that got you to your current memberbase youre at now, no other reason. Its wasn't only because of those mentioned above.

You dont even get that many from FreeOnes :P

And your comment about big paysites only featuring old models, its the same with old affiliate sites! thats the reason 2012 models do that much worse!! 2012 models will only have 2012 affiliates to grab on and signup, each year less and less promote new stuff. and since there aren't many new affiliates, the harder it is to gain a large affiliate base starting from scratch

old model or not, if you planned on starting a new program with no partner, your affiliate database will be very tough to build. you can go ahead and mention the launch on here and some other places but you'll be surprised at the number, it wont come close to the programs that launched 5-10 years ago, it wont be half, which means a huge decrease in sales

only way to capitalize on a model who has been around is to launch with a database of affiliates who are already signed up... expecting them to all just signup again isn't as common as you think, its so simple, yet they dont do it. u'd be amazed at how many wont even read your email or respond to you.

mutt went through that with bravo media.. bravo is already an affiliate of his, he launches new sites, they wont promote them. dawson miller sells well for them, mutt could bring her back, launch her a new site and they'd simply not signup. they dont change anything, they promote who theyre signed up with and thats that, surprisingly thats the mentality of alot of affiliates
