It doesn't need to be 500 affiliates sending big numbers... yeah you can have one whale or yourself getting traffic from a few sources, or you could be getting trickles from hundreds of sources. No one person can with 100% certainty predict what gets the surfer to finally whip out their credit card at the join form, but the odds are a hell of a lot better when it's coming from hundreds of sources and methods.
Let's agree to disagree on these points then  Your a program owner, and I understand where your coming from. |
Here's and interesting question. A lot of talk about whales in this thread. What is a whale nowadays? I am sure there are a lot of people existing on a few joins a day, but how many does it take to influence a program? How many joins does it take to be an influential "whale"?
