You embed a link code in an image - hell, embed it w/ a campaign - and then not only do you get the typein traffic, but you also get to measure it... BTW, just wait until you work out the effects of the tip above. It's called cookie crunching: you embed thousands of links to every major porn site out there on your page, so if the surfer happens to typein www.brazzers.com after being on your site (or whenever) - he's already cookied to you.... Edit: ...100 reasons to not run crying to a board |

You can't promote Brazzers.com. There is no link code for it. Programs set their own affiliate code on type-ins these days.. So you're old school method is useless when the program is out to actually force more type ins from your traffic and then take those sales for themselves.

In any case, the site that all the 'drama' started over yesterday: pornpros - the technique works perfectly for them, and i'd imagine 99% of sites out there. At the end of the day, it doesn't sound like there's any pleasing you. Seems you need to take the option number 1, and promote someone else. For the others, they'll maximize their toolkits and their revenue. |

So let me get this straight. The ones that spend all the money to produce the content, encode it, and provide it to their members AND their affiliates shouldn't put their name on it? Wow. All I gotta say.

I don't give a shit about watermarks so long as it's for the same site I am promoting, however, annoys the fucking shit out of me when a program uses watermarks to something not even related to what's being promoted.. I seen one of pimprolls sites videos using watermarks to a massivedollars site..
Wildcash watermarks theirs with movieprofits urls and aebn videos have urls to a vast variety of paysites from many programs.. the list is long.. |

Sorry nig. Programs, and content owners need to stay in business for the long haul.
Branding and protecting content is part of it. This is long term planning. Not single minded vision for the 1 time PPS for some affiliate who may, or may not, promote you next month. Their need, and desire to watermark their content supersedes the affiliates wish list IMHO. ![]() |

It's simple...
When you invest the massive time, effort and money it takes to create the content in the first place, you can put your name on it (or whoever you like). But since we carry the lion's share of the financial responsibility to produce what we do, our name goes on the final product. |

If you don't like the watermarking, go buy all your own content like older affiliates had to back in the day.

i can imagine working something out with a longterm strong affiliate, but considering how fast some affililiates jump the boat just cause someone else is offering $5 more i can understand when site owners prefer to strenghten their own brand by putting watermarks on their content (besides the protection factor). and surely it makes more sense to concentrate on one brand (like the all access site) than on 20 different site names. but: of course it should be possible for the affililiate to promote that one site too and be credited for it

"know that the content they see on a gallery is NOT what they will necessarily get if they sign up to the site..."
And it seems by removing the watermark it would only do more to encourage that kind of unethical affiliate behavior. Why don't you just embed the video and provide clear and concise links to the partner's site both around the video and near the top of the page (near the address bar) AND make sure everything in your ad is above the fold. There are a lot of well documented information architure techniques that you can apply to make sure you get your referral $$$. Removing the watermark is not one of them.

while i agree that a company has every right to brand their product, and it does have it's advantages for both programs and affiliates alike, I do have an issue when the damn watermark consumers way too much space on the content. Kinda hard to jerk my pud to WWW right over the best part of her thighs lol

Why don't you produce your own content and paysite then sport.
Without someone those companies who build the affiliate pay sites you would have no where to monetize your traffic. 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. |

as long as the page that is referring that cookie-stuff is also promoting that site, I can't see why there would be any problem with it?
on the other hand, if an affiliate tries to do that on their main page or stuff multiple cookies of other programs that are not the focus of the specific page, that wouldn't be cool

And I think hidden ones are bullshit too. Basically stealing. And so were all those other things that I listed as well...only they stole a lot more. That was my only point in those old debates, but of course since it's GFY everything is always out of context. I just don't appreciate your attitude and insinuations about me. I've busted my ass in this business for a long time, and I can ignore people running their mouths that don't mean shit. But when you insinuate that I'm somehow a bad guy...I have a problem with that. You aren't one of these clowns on here trying to start trouble with everyone. So for you to think or insinuate that I am somehow a bad guy really bothers me. If I'm "shady" as you are asserting then why do business with me? Take my shit down if you don't like me or think I'm "bad" in some way. I'd rather shake hands and call it a misunderstanding. But either way is fine with me.

I don't either. But damn it...I don't like working with people who don't at the very least respect my experiences and ideas. Whenever you post anything in reply to me, it's always with disdain. I don't like it, and I take it rather personal. I know I wouldn't do that to someone like you. So it bewilders me that you would do it to me.

the only thing i agree with in the original post is that program owners who mislead their affiliates by claiming they are doing it to "protect" their content.
Quite simply affiliate programs should come out and make the admission they are doing in this thread within their aff. program. They should clearly state that are branding with a watermark to make extra sales. |
