Adult Profit will cease operations as of midnight May 31, 2010.
 
Just got this email from them. I stopped promoting them some months ago. This is fucked up, who's next? All my respect for paying their dues before leaving the industry!

Quote:

It is with deep regret that we make this announcement. The present economic circumstances coupled with significant negative shifts in the adult industry over recent years make it impractical to continue running our affiliate program. The program has not been profitable in a significant time.

All payouts for the month of May 2010 shall be made as usual. However, no affiliate tracking will take place after midnight May 31, 2010 so it will be necessary for you to find a new advertiser.

We would like to personally thank all of our Webmasters for years of hard work and dedication. You made it a great journey for us. We at Adult Profit wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Sad news.

Another one bites the dust.

TeenCat 05-30-2010 05:08 AM

hm not good ... anyone have some info about payments from them? i hope we will get paid what we have there ...

TeenCat 05-30-2010 05:10 AM

oh crap, now i see, its babylon-x and the rest around? wow, this just wow ... :Oh crap

SpicyM 05-30-2010 05:12 AM

Wow.. these are the guys running Babylon-x?

I remember their galls used to be listed on the top of thehun.com all the time.. the site was protected by AVS (sexkey) at the time if I remember correctly. Then they have converted it into a paysite.

Caligari 05-30-2010 05:18 AM

yes this is Babylon X and Celeb King etc holy shit..... one of the biggies for a long time, the biggest celeb sites for years.

It does make me wonder now how many more sudden notices in the upcoming months.

They are saying "yes we are tracking until may 31st" so i would think with these guys they will do the final payouts and i am fucking glad i went total pps with them.

its really too bad about them because adult profit was one of the best sponsors from a webmasters perspective. they always got back to me within 24 hours, they made custom banners etc....very good people.

yes thanks now i see the payments info, good for us, and true that adult profit was a nice company, lets hope to see something new from these guys soon :)

If the adult industry could have a smell, I imagine it would smell much like a public beach porta potty.

A good time for affiliates to be smarter with their outgoing links. Change them in 1 place in a few seconds rather than hunting down lots of pages and sites. Something like this:

Bloody scammers.

Virtually no notice, and i bet they have been sitting on this news for some time. I hate it when sponsors do this.

great, i'm quoting myself;)

perfect example- i ask the genius of rehabdollars a question when he is online right after he posts his fucking link on this thread, then he goes offline and never responds...

there is a chance in hell i will promote your sites.

kmanrox 05-30-2010 06:06 AM

They are pulling a Wegcash... dropping the affiliate programm!

Brujah 05-30-2010 07:04 AM

Does it happen in 3's? Who's next?

IllTestYourGirls 05-30-2010 07:30 AM

Does this have anything to do with the crack down of cross-sales?

KingpinMedia 05-30-2010 08:09 AM

Glad I pulled most of their links months ago too. They couldn't convert at all. Went from 10k a month with them to 1k as conversions went to hell.

However i do have a lot of links i have to switch out from old galleries, etc.

Thanks a lot Adult profit for a day's fucking notice.

Konkan 05-30-2010 08:14 AM

That`s too baad.:Oh crap

BlackCrayon 05-30-2010 08:15 AM

if they are just pulling the affiliate payouts and keep running the sites i think they should be ddosed to hell...

thats convenient. use affiliates to build your traffic and then lock them out.

i hate this fucking industry.

woj 05-30-2010 08:21 AM

What's with the short notice? that's bullshit way of doing things... is that even legal?
