Sincerely, how does TCG do for you?

I've seen a lot of people pushing them, and I was wondering if it is just to get the referral fee, or if they really are worth it?

Please, do not post your link. I signed up with them already... Just want to know if they are worth of sending my hard-earned-traffic to.

Thanx dudes!

Sucks and so does every other $25 - $35 signup based on random content made in a smorgasboard, assembly line way.

But I am sure others do just fine with that.

Checks come like clockwork.

That said, ratios fluctuate wildly.

hmmm.... I'm not sure then. It is nice that you get your checks on time, but the conversion stuff is kind of scary.
I think I'll wait a while longer before sending them any traffic

thanx for your input, guys!

I don't push them for the referral, in fact if you look at my sig you'll notice there's no refcode. About conversions, I've tried most of the big boys and TCG always ends up being my top converter. I think it mostly has to do with the payouts being on multiple payment methods (checks, phone, dialers, etc...). I was rather surprised to see 30% of my joins came from checks and when other sponsors don't pay on these, it pushes TCG's ROI per hit quite a bit higher. In the end, TCG has been my top converter for nearly 3 years and as a result, they get over 80% of my traffic.

The people having them in their signature are paid for that ... not just the ref

Except WG and maybe couple other exceptions

Why wait a while? Most sponsors convert better for some people than for others; this may be due to which sites you choose to promote and what kind of traffic you send.

TCG has a wide variety of sites; you'll do better sending asian traffic to Mr. Chew's Asian Beaver than sending tranny traffic to it.

Converting is their business, and TCG has been in business for a long time.

I do real well with them. It has nothing to do with the banner I choose to fly in my sig.

My main sponsor for a long time now and I can say without a doubt I am very comfortable sending 65%+ of my traffic to them.

Weekly and reliable payouts are the key. They converted better in late summer but the sites still do good.


I mean.. uhmmm... they suck. Dont push their stuff

Well thanks for the honesty, and I am so glad that no one popped in saying that the conversions are " Off the Hook " or some other lame sales pitch.

I really pushed them hard after the TCG3 thing and it has paid off. The sites convert. The payout rocks and I likethe gold bar pointst. They need gift cards though. Very few revshares hit the $35 per sign up mark for me so these guys payout very well. Add in the whale bonus and it is hard to beat.

I dont send them all my traffic, but the traffic that i do send to them does very well. I hardly ever average less than $1 per join page hit. This week I'm doing $1.40 per jp hit. Ratio this week is like 1:42 but its usually around 1:30

Of course, not everyone is as good at this game as I am, so your results will likely be less impressive.

TCG is stable we all know that, and yes like 90% of the sponsors out there they also pay on time.

Their ratios are a bit strange at times though quite strange actually. I don't know about the rest of you, but the first 10 days of the month is where I do best with all sponsors, the sales are really cooking then. Here TCG stands out as having terrible conversions in this period, but after this they get better.

I've used them for a long time and I will continue to do so, though I also have to agree with previous post, TopBucks does much better.
