Why the hell do people care so much about damn conversions? - GoFuckYourself.com

I have an affiliate that is converting another site at 1/350 but was only getting $5 or so per sale he said, he is dropping my site because conversions are too bad (1/1400) He said he liked my program way better than the others but its just not converting. Including our promo days this guy made about $75 more with our program than he did with the other. So why would you leave that? WHY?

If he is making more money with your program and he likes it better than what he was promoting before I don't get why he left.
I generally care A LOT about my conversions, but that is because I use them to see what kind of ads I have more success with and what I should focus on doing more of.

You pay about $20/sale? he is making hte same at $5/sale. Plus if he gets rebills which seems likely as very few sites payout just $5/sale. So he makes more with the other company.
