    Your opinion on trials

    My partner site currently offering $5.95 for 3 days... But considering $0.00 for one day or $1.00 for one day...

    Have you ever tried or still using them? What's your results?

    That's a cartoons site, btw.

    thx..

    It was a disaster when I implemented it on my dating site. If people are willing to spend some cash - get them for one month at least. Those who ONLY signup for a trial will never do a trial + 1 month, they'll cancel after a trial. So, you'll loose whatever is the difference between one month and free trial fee.

        Free trials and $1.00 trials lead to high chargebacks. Once they get what they want (within 20 minutes of joining) they always seem to forget to cancel and then charge back. There is such a high percentage of "habitual trialers" out there....those that will ONLY do a trial and never anything but"...you end up losing money because you have to pay out the webmasters etc.
        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

          trials work great, if they are for less than 5 minutes

            If they are on trial.. my opinion is that they are guilty.

            Oh you mean on signups.. I promote sites that have am and sites that don't..
