    Since Win XP SP2 disables all consoles - when are sponsors going to lower payouts?

    XP Service Pack 2 blocks all popups and between current users and new computer users, most people won't get popups anymore.

    So if a program pays $35 and $25 CF, and if the number of surfers who get popups goes down by 75%, then what happens to payouts?

    Do programs detect whether a surfer gets a console, and pays the correct payout. That's probably the best idea.

      Someone already suggested (to webmasters) to send googlebar and sp2 traqffic to console and only the rest to console-free. I guess it would be wise for sponsors to check surfers for sp2 and googlebar

        interesting question... i think many will only have one flat (lower) payout soon... if they manage to pop an exit somehow, it will prolly be for the credit of the sponsor and not the affiliate

              It would be SMART for sponsors to MAKE the decision for themselves rather than let the MARKET (ie., their webmasters) make the decision for them.

              The pay as you click model is also a good alternative.

                More and more people are going with sp2 and pop up blockers.Probably lower payouts are inevitable ,that and perhaps pop ups may be a thing of the past

                  my fear is that a new can of traffic leaks and excessive cross sells will be opened to replace the dying console model.

                  maybe we'll have different payouts for with/without traffic leaks

                    My suggestions:

                    1. Produce the best possible content.
                    2. Cross sell into other programs you own, e.g. own two separate programs.
                    3. Keep mailing.
                    4. Own your own TGPs/MGPs network.
                    5. Limit trial time access.
                    6. Use a merchant account instead of third party billers to reduce costs.
                    7. Along with several other large programs form your own bank so adult can deal directly with VISA and reduce costs.

                      Maybe the answer to question lies in HOW MUCH of a PPS program's income comes from consoles?

                      Maybe prorate it?

                        We have never had more than one exit console and have never had any entry consoles so we won't be affected my the new update at all.

                            Be thankful that you're not one in ten who the service pack2 creates the blue screen of death... I was unlucky and had to buy a new hd as I got fucked

                              do you think there will be an increase in activex installs?

                                Not directly , but maybe indirectly..

                                If your affilates are using you on a popup page, then you are affected , or if other sponsors use you as a sponsor in their own popups...

                                  The messages are still very vague for the average internet user..

                                  I had this girl doing some reviewing for me the other day ( tgp reviews ) and i came back and she was all upset the computer was crashed and filled with spyware, i had only been gone for like 20 minutes.. so im like wtf did you do..

                                  She said , i was on this one gallery and it said CLICK HERE , then all these other boces kept popping up telling me to ckick here and click there then the computer rebooted a few times lol.. poor girl,, poor computer ... ( it will never forgive me )

                                                    I hope nasty things do not begin to occur to keep the payouts stable.

                                                    I know of at least one program that has made some significant changes, in both paysite structure and payouts, to be able to continue to evolve in the changing dynamics of this environment?very bold step

                                                              surely some smart guy will develop a way to pop consoles despite sp2 and popup blockers in general


                                                              afterall isnt it just a constant evolution of us vs them

                                                                      So if a program pays $35 and $25 CF, and if the number of surfers who get popups goes down by 75%, then what happens to payouts?

                                                                      Do programs detect whether a surfer gets a console, and pays the correct payout. That's probably the best idea.
                                                                      This is precisely what I spoke to my gf and partner about yesterday evening
                                                                      I said you may as well send to the console options before SP2 is widespread because sponsors wont be offering it before too long.

                                                                      Of course, tricky people could always have been detecting if a surfer had java enabled, then only sending people to console links if java was off. Also, sponsors could be checking if java was off and paying console free rates automagically too, lol.

                                                                      At any rate, handwriting on the wall no question. Need to set a variable if a console was able to be viewed or not.

                                                                      You've read it, you can't unread it.
