j-

hmmm, good question. It depends, pretty much if we are talking about my stats with other programs or for my AVS.

I admit that I do check my stats for SexPicturesPass a couple times a day, because I get these new guys that spring out of nowhere, and it is kind of fun watching their payouts go up.

Up until the beginning of the year, I never really promoted other people's programs, but since I have gotten into this blogging craze, I now find myself promoting well over a dozen different sponsors, with a few dozen different sites. With them I don't really bother checking for a couple reasons.

1. My blog is not sending TGP quantities of traffic, it is more like SE numbers (lower qhantity, higher quality). So I don't really think it is fair to judge a sponsor after relatively low numbers of hits.

2. There are so many things going on that I really don't have time to go open up every program and see what is happening.

3. I have goodgirl there to tell me who is converting, and I in turn make more blog entries where I can upsell their particular program a little more than someone elses.

4. I pretty much limit the programs I sign up for to people that I know . . . and like. There are one or two big programs where I don't know the owner, but have a good rep, and I might promote them, but for the most part I know who I am dealing with, so I guess there is a certain amount of built in trust.
