Just want to add my 2 cents on MaxCash. First of all, The MaxCash crew is one of the most reputable companies in this business. They epitomize professionalism in an industry that could use a lot more of it. PayCounter does business with MaxCash whenever we have an opportunity. They are a joy to work with.
As far as your math goes, Aly, Snoops or Cindy will be able to give you a better answer than I can, but looking at your math you forgot to calculate the value of their bonuses.
They have 2 types of bonuses:
1) Marketing Bonus (Basically earn over $3K/month)
2) Multiple Site Bonus (There are a couple ways to qualify, but basically get 5 signups on 4 of their sites in a month to get this one)
Each of those give you an additional 10%, which gets your max earnings per signup up to $42/signup.
I've used MaxCash since '97 and have been making $42/signup each month since then by qualifying for their bonuses.
Their bonuses and percentage system are setup to encourage and reward long term affiliates. They are looking for long term partners (and you should be looking for long term sponsors as well).
Another benefit of MC is that they have tons of resources available to webmasters to help build traffic and improve conversions. Aly, Snoops and Cindy will work with anyone for as long as it takes!
Anyway, the bottom line is that if you aren't using MaxCash yet, then you should be.
