JT, this is why its a waste of time to throw pearls before these swine.
No explanation ever satisfies the rabble. Its why I haven't made a meaningful post here in about 10 years. You're dealing with lifetime losers who imagine the successful are the reason for their failure. They're fun to ridicule but its simply a waste of time to teach them anything.

Everyone in support of you seems to have missed that bit of text you wrote.

Thank you for saying it and for validating the affiliates right to expression.

He makes his money from the direct type-ins to his domain, that he then forwards to my site/s from where he uses my content, with his aff code. He was sending me around 100 joins a month. I didn't delete his account, and continue to pay the aff share he is entitled too. And after a letter from my lawyer (to which he said to me directly "I hope your lawyer charges a lot"), he switched the redirects back to my sites. But for the 30 days he redirected to my competitors, I lost 100 sales and subsequent rebills.

This part interests me the most. JT would you care to share who this company is that was re-directing? Perhaps off-GFY? I ask because I have been approached many times for 'Members Area access' for affiliates to cut their own promo tools and clips. I have consistently rejected these types of partnerships but recently relented and have granted access to two such companies. This just happened last week so they are still in the process of cutting the content etc but now it worries me that the situation you just described could be happening with my sites. Something I do not want of course.

Any more info on this would be most helpful. :)

This thread is one that I still just don't GET in so many ways.

First of all, any and all companies have, do, and will continue to try out all KINDS of new shit on their websites. THEIRS! He can put up a chain of 50 pop ups if it will keep his doors open, if you'll kindly follow what I'm saying.

Also, I really want to know why the OP didn't talk about asking for a special link to promote the bundled deal which COULD have been of value to both parties! I'm all for a crusade, I guess, haha, but seriously he can put a bundle pop up all he wants to. He can put up a new join page and send 50% of the join clicks to the new one too. you WANT him to whether you like to believe it or not because that's how he improves ratios and once again, keeps the doors open and the lights on.

Again, exposing something wrong is all well and good and whatever, but I don't see this as "scam" even remotely, not even close to remotely a scam in any way. I would have wanted to promote the bundle and I would bug the shit out of him until he let me do it even if it was for just a week with simple pre-approved pages. Why not? Advantages don't come knocking at your door every day.

Now I have shit to get done.. I don't get this thread.

I'm the OP.

While it would be nice (i.e., honest) if your program was explained on the affiliate site, the reality is that prospective affiliates must carefully evaluate how any affiliate program works.

But that's not what happened.

My objection to your behavior is that you began your pop-up scam after I became your affiliate (and, of course, did not inform the affiliates).

Your are a thief.

A thief ?

Think it might be bye bye time for you.

1) I did ask for an affiliate link to the bundled sites. The response was, "No."
(Just like I said in the OP)

2) You recommend that I beg JT to be allowed to promote the bundled sites, even after being told, "No"?
I don't think so. And if you read his post (#354) carefully, you will see that he does not want to do that.

This morning I stood in line in a hot box room that did not have aircon, with 100+ Thai people in front of me, and 100 more behind me, waiting to deal with idiots at the water company, and I read every page of this thread on my phone. There was nothing else to do and my phone connection was too crappy to watch Youtube videos. So I read, and read, and laughed, and read, and laughed some more, and read some more.

After 8 pages, this is what I gathered:

Should I ever find myself in serious trouble on a board, hire Relentless and pay him whatever he asks for to unleash the $/Click Kraken.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh - Just ask JT not to make a coming clean post that makes rerentress look like an asshat to non high traffic tube owners. Thanks for that post JT. Less smug than Fabian but still pretty manly of you. :thumbsup

Relentless 06-26-2014 08:19 PM

Kawaii,

His post agrees with what I've said for 8 pages. Send your traffic where it earns you the most $/click.
I do agree that his post is remarkable. Most successful program owners would never have bothered explaining $/click in that much detail.

signupdamnit 06-27-2014 03:54 AM

Yeah JT maybe you should not have had an open affiliate program. But the point is that you do have one and you have all sorts of affiliates now (or you did). That means you have a responsibility to act accordingly. It could probably be argued in some jurisdictions that what you have done constitutes FRAUD. I completely agree that you are not affiliate friendly. That is why I stayed far away from you in addition to your past history with tube sites.

For the people who say "Oh! It's his site so he should be able to put up popups to in-house only site X!" That is fine. I agree and all but he needs to keep it off the affiliate tour. This is a very very basic thing other [honest] sponsors have figured out for the last decade and a half. It's not like this is some new idea. Failing this he needs to at least notify his affiliates that he will be stealing their traffic without additional compensation. Failure to do this basically makes him either a thief or incompetent. Or perhaps both.

Relentless 06-27-2014 04:04 AM

No, it could not be argued that way in any jurisdiction. Your entire post is idiotic. A traffic leak is exactly that.... A leak. It has the potential to reduce your $/click or to have zero impact at all on your revenue. Look at your $/click each period and decide where to send your traffic for the next period. It's that simple.

Do you even own a website?

Funny how he posts hundreds of replies saying the same thing over and over again in other topics where people talk negatively about programs which are paying him to display his seal (hijacking the topic and making it hard to follow) but he won't discuss it in an actual topic meant for that purpose. I have the fucker on ignore (sick of his thread jacking) but I'll gladly listen to it there.

As an affiliate, if you are 'married' to any one sponsor, you are making a huge mistake.

As a married person, if you are hoping to maximize your payouts from your spouse, you are making a huge mistake.

Your attempt at an analogy = failure

If you look at your $/click you will automatically find every leak... Unless the leak isn't costing you any money, in which case it isn't a problem.
If a program used to pay you 20 per click and then they add leaks so they pay 8 per click you'll see the 12 drop and can take action
If a program used to pay you 20 per click and they add leaks but your per click remains 20 or goes up over 20, that leak isn't your problem
Leaks only matter if they affect your $/click. Shaving only matters if it affects your $/click. And $/click is the easiest most reliable thing you can calculate.
It's math

You are missing the point. If you allow them to fuck you for a while and let it go, they will find more ways to do it.
No one has endless time so waiting for a sponsor who has shown these tendencies to get worse is stupid. Do you want to build more based on this sponsor? Do you want to see a lot of hardwork and effort get shit canned in three months?
Affiliate marketing is a sprint for some, but for most people, it is a marathon.

You are missing the point.

Someone who pays you more than anyone else would pay you per click is not fucking with you. As long as you continue to watch your $/click and they continue to pay you more per click than anyone else pays... they are your best choice. The moment someone else actually pays you more (not promises... actually does) they become your new best choice. Always watch your own $/click... if it goes down for ANY reason make decisions.

Relentless 06-27-2014 04:27 AM

This is what a professional hears when someone explains $/click:

"I can earn the most money by sending the traffic where it earns me the most money and ignoring the distractions... my goal is to earn the most money for my clicks, so yeah that makes obvious sense."











This is a visual approximation of what signupdamnit and other GFY 'geniuses' hear when someone explains $/click:

If you can quiet the crowd of nonsense in your mind long enough to actually think about what is being said... it makes perfect sense. :2 cents:

I do agree that his post is remarkable. Most successful program owners would never have bothered explaining $/click in that much detail.

I think most affiliates here would wish he would not have an open program to fool so many or have a disclaimer advising them they had better have a high traffic tube or forget it.

I think and probably many think he uses youporn to convert and the bulk of affiliates for back links. As Robbie pointed out if you have non tube, porn buying traffic, like Robbie and many of us do, the generic porn being offered is a waste for people. Then you get into the bundling antics and well, it's a train wreck from there for affiliates who are tired of a never ending list of bad programs.

The post is remarkable because like Fabian he enjoys wiping his cock off on our sheets. He is polite about it but it amounts to the same thing.

Some of us are professional crooks and some of us are professional affiliates and program owners. Opinions about who we work with may vary.

You have ZERO business ethics Relentless. Your posts time and time again prove that. You also fail to show you understand one important fact. If you are working with his program and making 100$ per day, most likely you should be making $200 per day but you are not. They have a word for that discrepancy...somebody help me out, I think it begins with the letter T.

Relentless 06-27-2014 04:50 AM

Kawaii,

If I am working with this program and earning $100 and someone else would pay me $200 then I should be earning $200. However, if the highest anyone else will pay for the same clicks is $99, then it would be foolish to accept less for the exact same traffic.

$/clicks works EVERY time. :2 cents:

You are the worst at analolgies... wow.

Here is what an accurate analogy would look like:

SponsorA buys gas from you for $1.10 per gallon

SponsorB buys gas from you for $4.00 per gallon BUT he also uses the bathroom at your gas station and washes his hands before he leaves. In that way he does in fact cause your water bill to rise a tiny amount more than SponsorA.


Should your try to do more business with SponsorA or with SponsorB?

If that water bill increase is more than $2.90 per visit then A is paying you the most, if the water bill is less than 2.90 per visit, then EVEN THOUGH B is using your bathroom and A is not, B is still the best choice for you. :2 cents:

Hi, my name is Relentless.

I'm just here to whore out my services, but don't feel any obligation to offer me more than pennies above my competitors. What few extra nickels and dimes anyone tosses in my direction is the ultimate game changer my life revolves around. In fact, I insist you do everything in your power to pay me the bare minimum tolerated by the law. Or you could pay me even less in cash under the table. Either way is fine, provided you are the one willing to pay the most when it comes to paying the least.

Read the OP closer. He did ask and was denied. Also there is a response from the sponsor saying he is not trying to be affiliate friendly. The thread makes sense, you just missed it.
