Not everyone uses your model though. You have to understand that. Some people are trying to build a good relationship for other reasons. Maybe they want special promo content. Maybe they want to set up a special discounted membership for their review site. No one in this industry knows everything about it. I guarantee it. We may know a little about one thing, a lot about other, and a little of this or that but none of us know everything.
For some people and models your total reliance on $/click values could make sense. But for starters it's almost ridiculous now for long term revshare in a time where sponsors drop like flies.
