            Your content is very european in nature as wel as your sites. Tehse cater to mroe auro tastes. North americans tend to go for meat and potatos hardcore porn and extreme hardcore. This explains why you have more 'foreign' signups than american.

            Personaly I like your style of sites but stats have always shown that sites with content like yours attracts more european and australian surfers. Just as your stats are showing.

              Okay Actually it was not really intented as promo for our sites. I just thought it is some nice info, since most affiliates don't see this kinda stats.

              Therefor we are working on a stats system, which WILL show you this info. Because IMO, more and more people are geo targetting traffic. And with the country shown where the signup is coming from, you might be able to market your traffic even better

                Well, I do know that many that filter foreign traffic do not consider Canada to be foreign...in fact...not sure I know of anyone that would consider Canada to be foreign traffic. I know one sponsor that filters foreign traffic but they do get people from Canada and the United Kingdom still signing up to their program

                  Of course there's a lot of good foreign traffic.

                  A sponsor would be an idiot to redirect ALL non USA traffic.

                  But it's definitely a good idea to redirect certain countries' traffic.

                    I never understand why webmasters don't install GeoIP on their servers to max out on traffic. it is easy and it takes less than 5 minutes to install.

                    this way you controll your international traffic and not your sponsor.

                        modF, is it possible for a site owner to setup in this CCBILL interface to scrub all signups from some countries or what do you mean?

                          I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,

                            That's the kicker right there. How many of those foreign signups will cancel or chargeback?

                            And also, a lot of the countries in that list generally aren't redirected.

                                        Chargebacks from NON USA countries are not higher then from the USA.

                                        Also don't forget in the USA it's much easier to do a chargeback then here in The Netherlands for example. Even with fraud it's lot of work todo a chargeback.

                                        Also USA surfers have more experience in surfing porn, and how to pay as less as possible

                                        So to answer your question, non USA subscribers act pretty much the same (for us) then USA subscibers

                                          this way you controll your international traffic and not your sponsor.
                                          I agree, that is the best way, since you can filter it your own way, and you don't have to rely on sponsors what they will do with your traffic.

                                            Personally I would send it to a sponsor who accepts UK traffic.
                                            But each person has different traffic. Why not try both for one month, and see what made you most.

                                              Also don't forget in the USA it's much easier to do a chargeback then here in The Netherlands for example. Even with fraud it's lot of work todo a chargeback.

                                              Also USA surfers have more experience in surfing porn, and how to pay as less as possible

                                              So to answer your question, non USA subscribers act pretty much the same (for us) then USA subscibers

                                                    Of course it does. Most of the signups come from there, so most of the chargebacks will come from there.

                                                    I'm saying the percentage of foreign joins that chargeback is a lot greater than the "english" joins that chargeback.

                                                    For example (and I'm just making these numbers up), 1 in 100 english joins chargeback and 1 in 40 foreign joins chargeback. The amount of foreign chargebacks is less, but the percentage that chargeback is higher.

I have three years of stats to back it up and we are new to the game. If there were truly good sales over there programs like ours would be pushing the shit out of it. With the new visa regs. its made it next to impossible to cater to most of those areas now and still keep under the 1% chargeback cap.

                                                              Strange, what countries do you block now for this issue?
