I was more addressing the idea that a normal affiliate would easily make a profit on this a a flat PPS or % deal.

I know what you do with GTS but this is not even close to being the same. Unless you had thousands of galleries readily available you couldn't fill all of the orders with your own stuff. Even if you could the logistics would be a nightmare. I really doubt that you adding your own files linking to a sponsors tour would be nearly as risky as trying to purchase every paid gallery spot in existense for your own galleries.

I agree with chadglni's post above, I think the important question is whether this system and price point is setup for affiliates or program owners?

also, I understand your business is too sell ads and not to figure out which sites/programs will convert best, however, as an affiliate, I am removing this risk from your hands and also adding additional risk, ie the 10k upfront payment. The problem is I don?t know how my sponsor will convert with this traffic, and at this price point it?s to big of a risk.

Finally, do you have any sample stats from other programs that you?ve sent traffic to?
