In the adult business today there are alot of companies out there making us look bad and loosing trust in surfers...As well bringing heat from the FTC and the government in general.
After seeing Greg from Sex Promote's post about advertising on awi I went to check out their site...I then followed up by signing up to give it a test drive.
Before I promote any sponsor program I play devils advocate and because a surfer...I went to one of my affiliate links to signup and try it out...
So I go to http://www.freeadultlottery.com/?aid=855247 and enter in all my info...Then i get brought to a screen asking for my credit card...Hmm I thought this was suppose to be totally free like it said on the front page? Well...I read the terms below...

Okay so from these terms I am told I get a option to join a mega site which is 39.99 a month...
Well while I am doing this I am talking to Greg about this...I wanted to find out what happened on the next page...He said you get your username and password...That your billed 39.99...Wait where is my option at?
My conversation with Greg from Sex Promote
j0ninjax: Okay so go over this with me...
j0ninjax: A User goes to...http://www.freecelebnudity.com/?aid=855247
j0ninjax: They fill out their basic info...then click next
sexpromotegreg: yes
j0ninjax: Now they are asked for their card number
sexpromotegreg: yes
j0ninjax: Since I don't wanna charge my cc...Tell me whats next
sexpromotegreg: the only way surfer can signup is with credit card
j0ninjax: Right...Say user a enters in their CC
sexpromotegreg: yes
j0ninjax: tell me what they see on the next screen
sexpromotegreg: they see that they joined site
j0ninjax: The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

j0ninjax: When I hit submit on freecelebnudity
j0ninjax: Worked when I hit back and resubmitted
sexpromotegreg: hmmm, I will get sys admin to check it out. Strange because joins are very good today
j0ninjax: Just acts like your system has a small bug somewhere :-)
j0ninjax: Should make a better 500 error tho :-P
sexpromotegreg: yes, true thanks
j0ninjax: Sorry I am a programmer and I am so picky about these things :-)
sexpromotegreg: it is good when I hear about these things, it makes my job easier
j0ninjax: So as a dumb surfer tell me...
j0ninjax: I am very confused...It says I am gonna be charged for a membership
sexpromotegreg: yes they get free membership to one site, and pay for membership on another site
j0ninjax: Yea but where do I have a option to deny the membership to the pay one
sexpromotegreg: no option , we have to pay out webmaster on join so we need to get paid from surfer
j0ninjax: Yes but according to your terms with the surfer they have the option
j0ninjax: As part of the Free Lifetime Membership promotion you have the option of subscribing to a Mega-Site,
j0ninjax: Not really a option if they have to join it
j0ninjax: Do they get a free trial of that site or are they instantly billed for $40?
sexpromotegreg: hmmm , all I know is that the sites convert extremely well for webmasters
j0ninjax: Yes but no offense but I don't promote something that is shady with surfers
sexpromotegreg: ok , well the conversions are out of this world :-)
j0ninjax: On the frontpage of the sites you have it says totally free...If they get charged instantly...That is not true
sexpromotegreg: thanks anyways
j0ninjax: Please explain this setup better to me
j0ninjax: Because I must not be understanding?
sexpromotegreg: we pay $35 per join , it increases up to a maximum of $45 per join with volume. I have to do some work now , will talk to you later if you have any further questions
j0ninjax: I am sorry but you did not answer my question...I will see if any friends can help me understand it...Have a good night
sexpromotegreg: you too
So...The site is telling the surfer its free and they have a option to join the mega site for only $39.99 but yet their are charged and they never get a option because Sex Promote has to pay their webmasters $35 per sale...
Since Greg didn't have time to help me with understanding this...Can anyone here shed light on this?
Thanks,
Jon
