I agree. On per signup, they can do what they want with the customer I sent them. I got paid for the signup, not the rebilling.

But on revshare, the idea is to make money off the customer recurring. And A LOT of revshare sponsors are upselling sites in their member areas that are better than the one the customer I just sent joined. So if he signs up to a site promoted in the members area, you bet he is going to cancel his membership. Poof, recurring gone.

I was in the members area of a very popular site today, the girl with the hoof foot or whatever it is called. It is a revshare program, and you would not BELIEVE the upsells in her members area. Complete bullshit. Traffic was stopped instantly after I saw that. I'll never promote that program again.

Upselling on revshare is nothing but a ripoff to the affiliate. And not too many affiliates are going to go to the effort to check out members areas, so it largely goes unnoticed.
