There are affiliates that get targeted traffic. They can make more money selling targeted subscriptions, than by selling their traffic for pennies to ad networks. Not to mention that these are often quality websites with a reputable brand name, which don't want to lose their loyal surfers by placing questionable/malicious/crap offers on their sites.

i disagree with that because i am long enough in this industry to see the changes going on.
i was starting 1997 as an affilaite webmaster when everybody sold his traffic and i made damnded good money.
i was doing my own affiliate programms from 2001 til 2012 and i made good money with it.
today i would not do one of the 2 things because i have learned that trafficmarketing have serveral ways to make money on but you have to know how.
believe me i am able to make money with gay products on straight sites the only thing i need is a mass of users. and you will never be able to generate masses.
when you are strictly looking for traffic of a niche you miss all the other preferences.
that is the same as you would state that a user from a weather site canīt be interessted in porn or cars or whatever.
sure you will have a much better CVR but from what ?
you might have 100 users and make one sale. i might have 1 million users and make 1000 sales with very different products.
if your niche is burned out you can delete all your hard build pages - i only switch in one second to another product.
have you ever seen that in a TV-commecial break of a science fiction they sell only star wars masks? porn is a magnet for millions and millions of people with ALL KIND of consumption.
and YES especially in the past few days i had a look into some stats of so called affiliate webmasters and i was crying when i saw what they make with their websites.
when i look in the stats of some of my publishers who just focus on making traffic and see 5 and 6 digit payouts every month and they do not even spend a minute in investigation what sells and what not, I ask you what YOU understand from a good affiliate income.
believe me - you do not have to explain me how internet works - i am 20 years in that biz and i always made good money. but i did not make it with concepts what are definately and logicly dead. i made it always with a far view into tomorrow.
