No they do not. You are bad at math.

You put time and effort into anywhere you send clicks. If a sponsor requires more time and effort than another sponsor that has to be included in your net $/click. If the sponsor requires the same time and effort, then it becomes moot.

Here is an example you can follow:

SponsorA - great guy and you want to bang his wife. no leaks or shaves
You put up a new blog and the total cost including domain, hosting, content, etc is $100.00. It generates 100 clicks and you send them to SponsorA. Each click cost you $1.00

SponsorB - guy you personally dislike and think might have shaved
You put up a new blog and the total cost including domain, hosting, content, etc is $100.00. It generates 100 clicks and you send them to SponsorA. Each click cost you $1.00

How you feel about it did not change your cost per click one iota. If SponsorA underperforms, you repurpose the traffic from your blog and send it to SponsorB. If SponsorB underperforms you repurpose the traffic and send it to SponsorA. If SponsorC comes along and actually pays more... you send to him instead.

The time and effort is only significant if it is different for SponsorA than it is for SponsorB. meaning for example, if SponsorA has great premade promo materials while SponsorB requires you to make your own. That difference is INCLUDED in your net $/click when you compare one to the other and again... how you feel about it is nonsense.
