If you sign up for a new sponsor, do u usually sign up through a ref. code?

Ok, let's say there's a popular sponsor program which you still hasn't checked yet.

So, if you decie to give them a try, do you:

1. go to www.sponsorname.com, sign up and start sending traffic
2. ask your friends on ICQ for a ref code, and then sign up and start sending traffic?



I am afraid most webmasters chose 1., but i really don't know why.

IMO it should be natural then you sign up to new programs under ref.codes from your buddies.

What's your opinion on this?

I try to use a ref if someone tells me about the program or their sig is the reason I checked it out...what about buying refs? IE you pay someone or give them traffic/service to signup under you...if their a big player it would be well worth it

No, I think they always have to make the money back somehow and they just shave you more.

My thoughts exactly. The same reason i cringe when a program i use announces a 50 dollar payout day or whatever. I usually change links for the day to another program.

Very cynical.

But just because you're cynical doesn't make you wrong. Now you have me wondering.

i usually just take a look at the site, then bookmark it. if it had a ref code in it when i bookmarked it, then that person just got a webmaster referal.

I was trying to make once a deal with a big player, but it didn't work out.

However, I still make some money from referrals and I'd like to increase that for sure and I am open for any deals.

It depends, i have a few people that are helping me get into that side of the biz w/ traffic, advice, etc... so if i signup at a program i find out if a select few have a ref code (i go by how much they help me, or how close i know em') if none of them do i just go straight through and signup.

I also figure this gives them a little love for helpin me sign up, as far as if they shave to make up for it, then i'll get shitty sales and will push my traffic elsewhere.

I usually sign up through a ref code, but I won't specially look for it. i.e. if I see some interesting banner on gfy I just click on it and sign up without ref. code.
