First off let me say that I respect Marc De and Becky mostly for the long term success I had with their program ARS back in 2001-2004
And in no way shape or form am I attacking them, I'm simply making this post to say WOW, a lot of people are going to be affected by this 2257 thing.
A lot of affiliates are going to take a hit, and I hope they are able to bounce back. Sponsors are making some MAJOR changes to reflect the new requirements of 2257.
Here are just a few points:
*Free content: At this time ARS will discontinue
offering free content for promotion of any of it's
sites. If you are using free content for any of the
reality sites, you should remove it now. Though Storm
Media is in possession of the id's for this content we
are not going to be providing them to webmasters and
would ask that you remove any ?explicit content?
advertising these sites. Explicit content includes actual
sexual conduct including all varieties of sexual intercourse,
vaginal, oral, anal, gay, straight, bestiality, masturbation
and sadistic or masochistic abuse. Also, any depictions
of the genitals would fall within this definition.
*NexGen FreeHost: Due to the significant liability issues
placed on Freehosting firms under the new provisions
of 2257, ARS will be discontinuing this service. All
material placed on the free host should be removed by
June 15th. At that point in time we will delete all
the content on the freehost and directories will be
replaced with a text link 404 page that includes links
to all the ARS sites with your webmaster id in them.
Like I said, I hope the small to medium level affiliates will be able to find a way to get sales in this new era (however long or short it may be)
