raising payouts & lowering % - GoFuckYourself.com

tell me if this is fair..

to raise prices on a paysite, and lower percentages for the resellers, however with the new payouts, resellers would still be making a little more per signup..

what do you think..

Why wouldn't that be OK?

When you raise the price, conversions generally go down. So, that is costing your webmasters money. Best to leave the percentage the same.

You gotta do what you gotta do when you're running your business. I don't know where the sense of entitlement comes from that program owners should lose money... not that anyone here has said that... but I think we all agree a program in business is better than one out of business.

I haven't seen that... we've gone from $19.95 to $24.95 to $29.95 over the last few years and haven't seen a bit of difference as far as conversions.
