    Common for PPS programs to shave?

    Im not going to say which program I have in question but here is my situation.

    My sales were strong with a PPS program averaging 1:500 for 2 months.

    Once I emailed the programs support team and left a few messages in their forum I think i broght attention to my account. "hmm lets see if this guy is retaining".

    Now emmediately after using their forum and contacting support with a question my sales are averaging 1:4500.

    I havent had a ratio drop that fast and that bad in all my years in this business.

    Do you think that its common for PPS programs to take a peak at your account after you email or have a question for them? Will they set a shave if your rentention sucks??

    I questioned the program about it and they said they have the longest beard in the business.

    It happens, difficult to find the ones that do shave though.

    Ask them for a membership pass, and see if you think it's worth it to promote rev share wise.

    There are a couple of strong rev share programs out there which make you more than the PPS programs.

    Hit me up if you need help

      there are sponsors out there who offer PPS and also revshare. I mostly test both of the options, its weird that when I buy some spots, I get mostly much more hits to the revshare program, than from the same gallery, same amount of traffic to the PPS program, also more sales, of course. But when I compared the long term incomes, the numbers were very similar. So at least the programs knows how to shave. lol

        Perhaps your bookmarkers got tired of seeing the same old shit? Perhaps your trades bookmarkers did also? Did they recently make changes to the tour?

          I very rarely change my sponsors on my sites. I use thumbnail links with a text link under them naming the site. I do change the thumbnails ever so often. The thumbs up now are the same ones I had when doing 1:500. I just have this awful feeling my account was reviewed and because my retention wasnt high enough its being skimmed now.

          I will say the word PIMP is in the sponsors name. eh hem...

            Can you recommend a sponsor with Ebony sites that you KNOW doesnt shave? Id really appreciate it. I already use ClickmeMedia, they are great but also saturated within my trades.

              Like that wasn't a dead giveaway. I haven't promoted them but their tours look promising. Sign up a new account and see what happens with your ratios.

                  I clicked through to your site and saw the sponsor you are referring to right away.

                        if they were converting at 1:4500 and after complaining, you would convert at 1:500, that would be an indication that they were shaving before.
                        I don't use ICQ anymore.

                          I was converting at 1:500 and after complaining I converted at 1:4500. I think you had it backwards.

                            I know what you meant.... I am just saying that if you had it this way, i don't think they are shaving.
