It should never be full url of the site. I never use content with url as watermark. Some program owners think that webmasters are idiots...

but it's perfectly ok for you to have traffic leaks with our content?
ie: tgp recips, free site recips, dating sponsors, etc etc....

affiliates abuse the hell outta that!
paleez, this has gone for enough.

Some program owners are idiots, but nothing compared to the amount of mentally retarded "affiliates" out there. ALL works should be credited. Plenty of "affiliates" take quality content, crop off the watermark and use the content to promote sites with the perceived highest payouts. Stealing the works of others for profit, devaluing the content then anonymously movin on.

But no talk about that ... only "OMGZZZZ!!!! the watermarks!!! All my monies is gone!!!!!!!!!


This is the dumbest GFY thread in a long time. it's time to bump Steve Lightspeeds thread about affiliates.

I see it all the time on gallery submissions and I usually forward info on those submitters on to the content/program owners I respect.

Reading comprehension really seems to be lacking with some people in this thread.. No where did I ever say to "steal" a programs content and no where have I said to use an ACTIVE programs content to sell something else. Good god people.

Right, so you are in agreement that content is stolen all the time, however you still think content providers/sponsors have no right to watermark the content?

Without someone those companies who build the affiliate

This industry was headed to ruin when the war for affiliate traffic prompted
affiliates program to do everything but wipe the ass of any moron with an
internet connection who claims they are a porn webmaster.

Same with all the parties and conventions, giving away more and content.
