Lightspeedcash is now INVITE ONLY - GoFuckYourself.com

SteveLightspeed · 07-11-2005, 06:43 PM

Effective immediately, Lightspeedcash is ending our open affiliate enrollment and is now invite-only. We plan to re-evaluate this strategic decision on October 1, 2005.

We support our affiliates 100%, and we want to give them every opportunity to succeed with Lightspeedcash. With an invite-only signup, we hope to free resources to be able to work more closely with our existing affiliates and traffic partners.

Please contact [email protected] with any questions or concerns. Thank you for your continued support of Lightspeedcash!

Haha, you aren't using it? I thought we had a trade in place?

tony286 · 07-11-2005, 06:50 PM

I think thats very smart , a better level of affiliate, instead of the throwing shit on the wall and seeing what sticks technique lol Also gets rid of the people signing up just to get free nudie pics and videos .

Now that Lightspeed is closed if your looking for good teen lesbian content try Sapphic Cash! All the info is in my sig!

Buddy · 07-11-2005, 07:01 PM

That's really interesting, I can't say I'm surprised.
I've had a few conversations with program owners that had been considering similar moves.
I hope it works out the way you planned it Steve.

Tylo · 07-11-2005, 07:03 PM

Looks like its time to start making galleries since I haven't used my account in while. You arnt going to close out old accounts that havent been used in forever are you??

Jason · 07-11-2005, 07:05 PM

fuck yeah.. go for it Steve!

That is an interesting idea. We have been talking about adding a longevity bonus, so closing unused accounts would make sense in that case.

Does this move have anything to do with 2257?

Steve Lightspeed

Well I havent used you guys for a while because I didnt have any teen traffic for a while, but things are starting to pick back up in that area so if my accout dosnt get shut down before I get some stuff up I will see how it does.

eroswebmaster · 07-11-2005, 07:16 PM

Okay, I have not used my account at all until the last few days. Will this affect me?

MichaelP · 07-11-2005, 07:16 PM

No, we have already solved our 2257 issues. This is more of a cost/benefit adjustment.

We would never close an active account in good standing.

I have not used it in forever. I just started to use it recently, like in the past 2 days. :D

If you guys do close it, I can understand no hard feelings. I hadn't sent any traffic.

baddog · 07-11-2005, 07:22 PM

I haven't had a check in a week or so . . . . you aren't going to cancel my account are you

Tango · 07-11-2005, 07:22 PM

great idea!

and fyi - the following domains are NOT for sale - I've gotten a few emails in the past hour - we're already developing a program

invitecash.com
invitedollars.com
invitebucks.com
inviteonlycash.com

Not at this time. But it is on a very short list of things to do.

Thurbs · 07-11-2005, 07:41 PM

very interesting .. kind of an explain why should be accepted policy. while I like the idea of exclusivity, don't you think that will result in endless email requests? or is it simply we'll invite you and don't beg?

How would one go about securing oneself an invite to the Lightspeed program?

We have been aggressively recruiting new webmasters since 1999. If someone doesn't have an account BY NOW, what were they waiting for?

I think the money we spend on advertising for new affiliates would now be much better spent on direct traffic purchases and content/site/program acquisitions (hint hint)

Steve Lightspeed

Thurbs · 07-11-2005, 07:47 PM

haha .. great answer steve, definately can see the possibilities
