When you lay down with dogs, you get fleas. If the visible parts of AFF's marketing are any indication, there is no limit to what might be going on inside the company that we can't see.

Lifetime membership sites are particularly prone to problems from this. For every person that signs up, the conversions for everyone else get incrementally worse because there are less fish in the sea. I think at this point most people sending traffic to AFF / Cams are sending problem 20-50% bought and paid for members that won't ever make them another cent.

It's the easiest way to understand how they can pay $125 a signup, because half of your traffic is coming back and making them money and they don't have to pay you for it, so they can afford to pay more for the occassional signup that is left.

Law of diminishing returns, nothing more, nothing less. Provided you can find another dating site that hasn't been overwhelmingly promoted, you can do better money just because more of the surfers aren't already members bought and paid for.
