    Most important to affiliates as a sale tool

    John mentioned it in his new sologirl site thread, thought I'd bust it out as it's worthy of more attention.

    As an affiliate, what do you prioritize above all else when selecting a sponsor, (aside from being attracted to a particular site) out of the following:

    -Multiple hosted pic and movie galleries
    -Sample gallery templates for building your own
    -Free pre-packaged pics and movies for you to use
    -Banners, HPAs/FPAs, other traditional ads
    -Flexible payment offerings (ePassporte, Wires, etc)

      Yes, thanks, we know. Please limit answers to the items listed, we're looking for a priority list on those specific items. Take the site/content/layout out of it please, assume all three of those are aces.

          Perfect, that helps. You'd prefer pre-packaged content over the sponsor hosting it for you and allowing you to link to videos on their servers?

          I wouldn't have guessed that. An informative thread already.

                i build my own galleries
                banners are not a factor to me (good ole text is fine w/me)
                Multiple hosted pic and movie galleries(everybody and they mama use these)
                simple checks or wire transfers

                reason why these are not a factor
                It IS what it IS

                  Very nice, I never would have guessed that pre-packaged would have been more desired than freebies, and I'm a top-30 TCG affiliate who uses pre-packaged stuff lol.

                  Makes sense though, bandwidth is so cheap that hosted galleries are for lightweights, never used them myself, always use pre-packaged content that I can manipulate for MGP paid spots.

                    Sorry dude, but the most important item isn't even on the list. Decent stats for affiliates are the sine que non ("without which, nothing") and if you don't have 'em, none of those other items matter a damn.

                      Assume the sponsor uses NATS or ES, and also assume everything not covered by the list IS already covered (stats, quality content, good hosting for the site, etc).

                      Please just stick to the list as it's written, Thanks.
