Let me ask you... would YOU pay for an affiliate to send you your OWN traffic?
No.
That's why this thread should not exist. Because Shoehorn, or whatever he calls himself, is basically committing fraud. Nothing needs to exist in a Terms of Service agreement that would basically convey logic. You don't say to yourself "ahh, as an affiliate I know I can generate traffic this program isn't generating themselves by bidding on their own name!" The way you come to that conclusion is by thinking "ahh, as an affiliate I know I can pull the wool over this program's eyes by capitalizing off their own hard work!"
That is the reason this is a fucking retarded thread.
Sorry, but there is no program that will allow this. Period. End of story. No TOS needed.

no program will allow this? what rock you crawled out from under? There has already been a lot more programs in this thread that say they allow this than ones that don't. Most do allow this.
I hope everyone takes notice of how you run your program and how you think. You read what happened here and you feel shoehorn (the affiliate) committed fraud, and Dirty D did nothing wrong.
What a stupid post you made.

That is not allowed by ANY program. Period!
Every domain I own is #1 in the SE's for that term. Any affiliate who tries to send me my own traffic is going to be canned just like Shoehorn. End of story. Cut and dry.

ITS NOT YOUR TRAFFIC, IT'S GOOGLE'S TRAFFIC AND THEY SELL IT. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN ASK GOOGLE NOT TO LIST YOUR SHIT ON THEIR SITE.
SO YOU THINK IT'S YOUR TRAFFIC. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE ELSE BIDS ON "YOURTRAFFIC" AND SENDS IT TO YOUR COMPETITOR, IS IT YOUR TRAFFIC THEN???? WHAT DO YOU DO THEN YOU MAKE NOTHING!!!
