I think a combination of 1 and 2 would be best.
Have open admission to the reseller proggie. Set up a webmaster free content section and let them have what's in there to promote with.
Give your heavy hitters a members pass and let them do what they do best.
Also, if you own a paysite, you WANT crap traffic from cj's and blind links etc.
Learn how to work the exit consoles to increase your bottom line. If the newbie doesn't know how to filter and qualify his traffic and converts at 1 in 2000, then that's 1999 impressions on your exit consoles that you can filter and make some bank on.
Ya dig?
Also, I strongly suggest you do #3 BEFORE you let people resell for you. You need to test out your conversion and retention ratios.
If I send you 100 members and you only keep 15 of them, you'll never get another hit of my traffic. And I'm pretty sure that most resellers feel the same way. You need to be 100% sure that we're both going to make $$ off of the traffic I send you before you ask me to send it.
That's my
