Im sure that has a lot to do with it.

That being said, we have worked with some of the larger publishers on the non-adult side of things (bringing in 10-50k a month) and they still didnt understand why they should promote higher priced products over the 1 and 2 buck products they were making money with lol

I honestly do think they have a completely different mentality alltogether than what we have in adult when it comes to making money online.

An example i used recently is PPC search aggregates, non-adult publishers tend to use adsense or somesuch other program that pays out cents on a click or impressions.

If they went to some of the other aggregates out there directly, they could be making dollars per click on the same traffic.

I honestly do think they prefer throwing links up to the first program they find rather than shopping around and looking for the best roi per click.

I dont know, i guess we're lucky in the fact we work both adult and non-adult so have experienced many facets of working online, the good and the bad whilst many non-adult publishers tend to stay away from the side of the web business where the real money can be made, recurring and PPS.
