The post wasnt directed specifically at you.. It was meant for a few companies. And yes I have sent to your sites and they didnt convert well at all for me but I'm sure others do great. The 50 signups a day was a bit of sarcasm and again not meant for you.. sorry.. lol
When you get into the 1000s you'll see what I mean
I'm not saying you don't have an honest business. I'm saying that you will see some more fraud coming your way by raising payouts and then you will learn what the bigger affiliate companies have to deal with.
I do however think its funny that a few companies raise payouts at a time when others are lowering. I have learned who our allies and friends are. I know people are doing it to try and get more traffic their way but I think its a bit tacky.
It really comes down to this... send program A 5000 hits and see how much money you make and send program B the same.. It comes down to the paycheck and I feel even with our lowering of payouts that we will continue to convert the way we do now if not better and our traffic will not drop much at all.
Good luck to all
