Sponsor Drama

Why do sponsors lie about their ratios and post bs like

1:172 CamelDongsInWhiteTrash.com
1:199 SaltyMaltedTrannyBalls.com
1:184 SicknTwistedMilkyMelons.com

Do they really think they are fooling us to join or something?
When everyone sends them 3,000 hits per day and gets no sales....

Is there a disclaimer saying, we only count the actual credit card attempts and is not a reflection of actually traffic that may be sent

HHAHAHAHAAH

Yea, some of the sponsor pitches about conversions are pretty crazy.

All sponsors are different and as diverse as the different traffic types. I have no doubt they have quite a few affiliates with ratios that good, and even better. But there is the lions share of affiliates that are doing WAY worse than that. I have not seen their stats so this is only speculation.

There are also ways to skew ratios, such as not showing true first page uniques / etc.

But in general sponsors want you to believe that you will make a bazillion dollars regardless of the traffic type. It's all marketing to get your traffic. Always check the bottom line.

Sure they might have a sponsor that converts in 1:187 but across the board? I doubt anyone breaks 1:1000 on any site. With all the bs watered traffic, redirection and crap... PUH LEASE

Hell for them to state that after I send them 3000 hits of pure se and get nothing, they must haev someone doing 1:20 to maintain that ratio lol
And I am just one affiliate, not counting the FHG crap that probably gets them another 500,000 shit hits per day

Maybe their business is 99% cross sales and hence 0 hits = signup
Must be the "bottom line" as you state

Depends on how they "count" traffic. If they count join or second those numbers are very doable....actually quite easy

It for this very reason that rations don't mean shit, they should only be used for comparisons.

You could try a different sponsor, if you haven't done that already. There are some that are similar to the domains you mentioned above. But if you receive similar results from your traffic, you might have to be more realistic as to the quality of the traffic. Even SE traffic can be low converting, depending on the phrase, etc. I know my stuff wouldn't do well on gaping anal and scat traffic

I'd try hitting them up to see if they have suggestions on how to improve those ratios. I like when affiliates contact me about their promotions. It makes us all better sales people.
