It's two COMPLETELY different business models.

With the programs your referring to, well, you're probably right. And most of the big guys run the same kind of business model.

Then you have the ma & pa sites that are in the background of all this, making a killing in signups, high recurring with no affiliates. Those are the one's you won't hear about.

Do you think a guy like Quiet can pay out $20-$30 a signup and still fully profit? Definitely....and then some.

Does he need to triple cross sell, upsell, use popups, popunders, tear his surfers a new asshole, rape them and spit them out to pay it? Not at all.

It's all based on which business model the sponsor is using.
How many of those ma and pa sites that you say are "making a killing" pay $35 per trial signup?

How many of the people whining about the lower payouts send traffic to the ma and pa sites? NONE of them....the ma and pa sites are partnerships and none of the partnership programs have lowered payouts, they still pay 50-60% of the membership fees.
