email from Alpha Sky Productions
 

do they not want people to promote these sites?????

rofl at this guy trying to lecture people how to sell porn, the guy is a fucking moron.

They google those sites with their galleries, but couldn't click through to find the ref id and contact those affiliates directly? That's fucked up.

Some people prefer to micromanage apparently.

4 FHG ROFL thats pure gold. Thats going to allow webmasters to push them hard

It's like they're trying to piss people off to the point where no one will promote them. They'll have no affiliates left by the end of the year.

A few weeks ago the owner of that program posted here, he was making around $2k a month with ALL affiliates combined.

And he was even happy with that.

congrats to the losers.

Yea, that was nuts... He should easily be doing that a day...crazy how bad some people are are this internet thing...:winkwink:

Are they out of their fucking mind?

his pimphand is strong!!! lol

we told them we would remove the FHGs and we will not promote them anymore at all. Too much hassle.

How many of you guys "set and forget?" I would imagine all. All of my affiliate sites... I never change anything, once they go up they are pretty much live and that's it. Who has the time to go back and constantly remove/add promotions on low-level sites? That makes absolutely no financial sense at all. Total waste of time, way too much micromanagement. One should be moving forward, not moving backward.

Be careful they will delete your account.

They sent a letter telling ccbill I was a surfer and banned me. Good riddance!

Now is that normal Christmas or Russian Christmas or Saint Nicholas' Day? :upsidedow

I love me some Alpha Sky Productions threads lol

too stupid and lazy to check his own admin for those affiliates and email them, what a fucktard

White version of pussyserver.

... the next one to go down the drain ...

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

wow what a stupid fuckers, i am removing all my links to this program that is running by total stupid idiot ... fuck off alphasky, i will see you in every your thread, asshole! you will be homeless very soon! bitch :1orglaugh

What a fucking joke!!

I love the way the "offenders" get outed in a generic email sent to everyone. :1orglaugh Too hard to contact the affiliate directly? I guess she's too stupid to be able to figure out referer logs too... have to go to Google to find out who's sending traffic! :1orglaugh

I had thought he was getting better based on his more recent messages here but this shows that not to be true. It's his business and all but there's a point where one is just being ridiculous and I think he's crossed that.

He should send an email thanking those people for giving him traffic cause his sites suck so bad.

LOL you're too kind

if he want to reduce the amount of FHG's affiliates have on their sites, fine, it his content and he is trying a different marketing strategy. But this could easily be accomplished via a cookie on the FHG's to redirect to the tour after 8 FHGs are viewed by the surfer.

To send an email to webmaster with a list of "offending sites" is unforgivable and a breach of trust in my book. Hope their affiliates drop em for that mistake.

"she" did

Btw like said above her content, her sites so up to her what to do of course. Just don't expect a lot from your affiliates this way.

Ah, my apologies to Alphasky for the oversight. Yes, hopefully Alphasky re-evaluates her position on this one. Most affiliates consider this way over the top.

i really think alpha sky is one of the most retarded people, next to cam_girls

thats awsome.. i bet they're some of their top affiliates too

many good points. But mainly the guys owns content they have the right to ask. )

sounds like a good idea. the best way to prevent overexposure is to get all affiliates to stop promoting them. i think it might work.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

That AlphaSky cracks me up sometimes. Glad I don't promote her shit. :1orglaugh

Holy shit some of those sites are the top sites around and I am sure sending them tons of sales. Fucking stupid.

overpromoting? lolll

this is why his total member count is below 30

looks like someone is trying to get rid of the affiliates...

his program, his rules. If he thinks it works, let him. Maybe more sponsors should set some rules.

yup I saw this email in my inbox earlier today and made sure to finish my drink so i wouldn't spit it out or spill it while laughing my ass off reading whatever the email said. I was glad I took those steps :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I too think that is a really bad thing to call out affiliates by url in a affiliate email. Send them emails directly but never send out something like this to all affiliates..

To those affected by this morons email feel free to swap out his 8 fhgs with any or ALL of my 500+ fhgs :thumbsup:1orglaugh

Four content good, Two (Much) content bad.

Now with freeones and pichunter gone It's a success.

I wonder if Alpha Sky is playing everyone on GFY? She has received more views to her program with her wacky threads and rants than any program that actually pays for advertising.

At the end of day, very few affiliates will stop promoting a site because of personal feelings towards the owner as long as it sells and pays on time.

Hmmmm?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Wasn't this guy saying how he was so proud of making 2k a month or something like that not long ago. He posted some half ass stats that he was bragging about?

yes he was bragging about paying out just over $2k to his affiliates in a month :1orglaugh

Agreed, I'm sure with their tracking ID they could have located the account.

This is the oddest request to WMs I've read in awhile.

Whew! Thank you Grumpy. Nice to find a gem in the mania.

I knew that a slew of negativity was coming (again) from the same large group that seems to dictate to everone what they can and can not do with their business.

The really funny thing is, doesn't anybody here actually read other affiliates postings in regards to the downward spiraling of sales and how "porn is free" and how profits are disappearing?

Why is it that when we are trying to do something about it, we get shit thrown in our faces from some affiliates and from strangers that don't even rep our content? Some of the comments here make no sense at all.

One of the main problems is "over promoting" and releasing too much free content.

There are tons of posts from many webmasters that all agree with this. Free content is ruining your very own business.

Instead of writing nasty posts about one webmaster trying to make a difference, take a few minutes out and try to understand what we are doing.

Affiliates must learn how to use and control they way they advertise our content as well as other site's content.

We are not in the business of "getting surfers off for free." We say, "make them pay for it." If a surfer can Google one of our sites and preview in one location, over 100 pics, then why in the world would this same surfer purchase a membership?

If he is hunting around and can only find a very limited preview of something he is very interested in, then he is more likely to purchase a membership.

We are simply setting some guidelines to limit the amount of exposure of our content to secure future sales for our affiliates as well as ourselves. Of course we are a very small site, and our sales are not huge like other sites, but you will notice we are very steady and do have a nice stream of sales coming in all year long. Site owners understand that most of their sites disappear within the first year do to lack of original content or over promotion.

If more site owners would limit the amount of free content, then they would make more money as well as affiliates selling that same content. We believe affiliates must learn how to tease their traffic, not supply them with enough free content so they can get off for free.

They won't buy the cow if they can get the milk for free.

Please do not condemn us for applying a simple limitation of the usage of our free content.

4 FHG's is more than enough to wet the appetite of any surfer. Letting them preview 100
s of free pics is counter productive and goes against the tease effect which induces sales.

Also, a majority of our affiliates were not upset with this and understand what we are trying to do. We only sent out the 2nd email as a reminder to a small group that ignored our request and or have not made the reduction. We had no idea that some angry person would post our private email and use it to broadcast a hate message with it to invite more haters to post their negative thoughts. We meant no disrespect to those affiliates listed. It was merle a reminder email as after 20 days, we did not get a response from them and our free content was not edited to the proper amounts.

It would be nice to hear from site owner/creators as to their opinions of the usage of their free content.

Please understand we are looking at the future of adults sales and not just this week.

By securing and controlling the over usage and over promotion of our sites, we insure long term sales for ourselves as well as our affiliates. We don't believe the current business model works for our sites as many of you I'm sure feel the same way.

Let's all put the plastic wrappers back over our sites and make the surfers pay to get off.

Site owners must learn to control their content so we can all earn money.

Let's stop giving it all away for free.

:)
