And you should have it in your TOS that these "antics" aren't acceptable. But you don't, so instead you decide to let me run my campaign for another 3 months WITHOUT closing my account, WITHOUT sending me any warning, and then deciding to not pay me the money that I am rightfully owed.

Send all crackhead traffic my way.Comment

All of this has been explained to Shoehorn while he was lying about what keywords he purchased. Stating that the domain name wasn't purchased and that he was using other misspelled versions.
After many discussions it has been proven that the only "performance" his PPC campaign had was our own domain name.
So now we have a lying affiliate that misrepresented his campaigns complaining about not getting paid for siphoning our typeins.
He was kind enough to send a screenshot that proved what keywords were purchased and proved that he was lying and misrepresenting his campaign to us.
Now he is misrepresenting the issue to others
Well at least now, other programs will know to look out for this kind of shady business.

So lets say I'm first in google for "tampa bukkake" or "tampabukkake", the first spot organically not pay per click, will you pay for sales then?Comment

from my view i dont think hes being shady at all.
to me, you not paying him seems shady.
thats just how im looking at it honestly.
and again, you are going to make an enemy out of a guy who can just as simply take that same traffic supply and pump it say.. right to the guy 2 posts up.. wholl take it no questions asked.. and pay on it with out a word...
course by far do not allow me to tell you how to run your biz, but cut to the chase question. you gonna pay him or not?want to buy this spot for cheap? it is of course for sale. long term deals are always the best bet. brand0n/ at/ a o l dot commies.Comment

Really? because I typed in two search phrases with "crack whore confessions" and i dont see your site listed in the top few. The second one, your not even on the first page!
So how would bidding on that term steal type in sales? Maybe from rabbit reviews, but not from your site if your not even listed. I can see if he is bidding on exact match on the domain or even the site, but if its phrase or broad match, I don't see why you wouldn't pay him as here is proof there is traffic that is not siphoning your type-ins
search for "free pictures from crack whore confessions"
search for "is crack whore confessions worth joining?"
Honestly I have no beef with you Dirty D and your business but I think there are other ways to bring in more traffic with bidding on names. Ive been doing this for a long time and make a good amount of money from it. Also, I spend 95% of my day working in AdWords for client accounts spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on similar searches and respond with the same when they ask "why are we bidding on our own name?"
Truth is there is 1000s of other searches containing your name that you are not showing up for. IMO, i would strickly say you can NOT bid on the exact name and domain name and call it a day, otherwise a lot of people are going to look negatively on this

I am about 2 seconds away from posting the screenshot I sent to you. Of course since you can't comprehend PPC campaigns, I'll tell you that if I post it its going to show other people the keywords I was bidding on as well as how the performed for the month of November, which they can then bid on to send the traffic someplace else.
You know for a fact that I sent you legitimate sales using a proven method, which I was paid for over a period of 3 months. Then you decided to change your mind about paying me for whatever reason, although nothing about keyword bidding was ever mentioned in your TOS, and not say anything about it to me. You let me run my campaign for another 3 months, and then when I contacted you about the money I was owed you said that I violated your terms that don't exist.Comment

mr shoehorn is clever and as he wasnt doing anything wrong, you have to pay him and then change your rules so you will not cry anymore ... crap, i dont see whats this about ... pay the man!Comment
-
Wow. this sux
300 bucks and this will all go away.Comment

i allow it and encourage it - they do the work for me, they spend the money on the campaign. there is NOTHING to say that the sales he sent you through his PPC traffic using the site's keywords would have turned into type-in sales. porn mostly is an impluse purchase, his PPC ad caught their attention and you got a sale.
i know some site owners hate when affiliates use their names/trademarks to outrank them in the serps and to run PPC ads but my answer to them is - don't run an affiliate program, if your attitude/viewpoint is that affiliates are your competitors then simply don't have an open affiliate program.I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting.

i agree. take the keywords and typins and sent the joins to another program.
some programs get pissy - stupidly - when you do what you did. little do they consider you can do the same marketing and send it to a close competitor.Comment
-
Exactly. Its about selling the consumer the product before they have time to change their mind, and wading through several pages of search results that often don't include exactly what they are looking for gives them plenty of time to see something they DON'T like and change their mind.

Johnny are the sales you sent coming from buying CRACK WHORE CONFESSIONS itself?
I would say that IF that is the exact term you used then of course you did NOT send any new sales to Dirty D that he wouldn't have already had.
Now if you used variations then yes that would be acceptable.
But if it was just "crack whore confessions" then that is traffic that he already ranks number one on Google for and represents signups that he would already have gotten.
No need for the surfer to search through pages and pages...he's number one for his own site name.
And for continuing the Ad Words campaign on that specific term and trying to send traffic somewhere else...bro, you know that would be a huge money loser. If somebody is SPECIFICALLY looking for the site "Crack Whore Confessions" they aren't going to buy another site that you send the traffic to. It's all about targeting it.
I would say that if you did an ad campaign for the term "Crack Whore" or any variation then you could say that's ok. But the actual site name isn't really putting any NEW eyes on his site...which is what we are paid to do as affiliates.
On another note...I see lots of TOS that forbids ANY Ad Words campaigns.
I hope you guys work it out. I like both of you.

Dirty ain't paying ? WTF ? there must be something wrong here... We don't know all the facts i guess.Comment

Your examples are fine and acceptable SEM.
These are not ONLY the exact spelling of the domain name.
These are keyphrases that involve more than the domain name.
In fact, only three of the 27 keyphrases that shoehorn was using are a problem.
However all of the sales came from the typein of the domain.
Users all have toolbars, many don't know difference between the address bar and the search bars.

Send us additional traffic and sales - you get paid.

And your TOS said nothing about that, AND you paid me for the same type of promotion for 3 months, then decided to stop paying me without warning.
This is about the fact that you stopped paying me for no reason (according to your TOS) without any forewarning or even an email telling me to stop my campaign. Instead you let me run the campaign until I emailed you asking about the money I was owed.Comment

I've seen many marketing studies which show that purchasing paid search units for keyword which you are already ranking #1 on produces additional traffic and sales which wouldn't have been generated with the #1 organic spot alone.
My opinion is that the sites did receive the additional traffic and sales that dirty d says are needed to get paid and, accordingly, shoehorn should get paid out on them.Comment

looks like the only person who dont think shoehorn should get paid is dirtydwant to buy this spot for cheap? it is of course for sale. long term deals are always the best bet. brand0n/ at/ a o l dot commies.Comment

Am I the only who finds a lot of what's been written, confusing?
One guy saying he's getting $150 PPS, then $100 PPS when in fact, he's getting $30 PPS. -> man, PPS means "pay per signup" NOT "monthly payout on all accumulated sales"
And the other guy claiming that the first guy is "buying his domain name" in adwords. -> the domain name is "crackwhoreconfessions.com" and NOT "crack whore confessions" <- that title is free game.
Suffice to say that if the second guy really wanted to prevent affiliates promoting his "domain name" in adwords, he'd have put it in the TOS for the first guy to see.

I don't know what's funnier - your post or your hair.
Do you really think that everyone typing in 'crack whore confessions' is looking for the site? Maybe they're looking for content, review / related sites to pump their piston too?
The wording / sales text used DOES bring new eyes to sites.
