Partnership Program Shams

Something I noticed at Internext was how pretty much everyone and their brother has their own partnership program.

I understand that a partnership program will help you get traffic and signups... and 30-50% of the pie is better than nothing... But is it really worth it for the webmaster sending traffic?

It's happened quite a few times in this industry.. small webmasters have lost several hundred, or even several thousand, dollars a m onth in recurring revenue because the owner of the partnership program couldn't afford to run the sites anymore.


How many of you send traffic to small partnership programs?
Would you still send traffic to a program that you know the owner to make less than you? I'm referring to those guys who have a program and make less than $5k/mo. Unless you ahve exclusive content.. it's almost impossible to run a paysite on less than $5k/mo
