As their own, to promote YOUR product and sites where do you really stand? I read the twistys thread and this is different. Some sponsors have easy to recognize names so i understand the need to protect the name. Like most surfers know of reality kings, bang bros, twistys, etc. Would the sponsor be right/smart to restrict affiliates from using their trademarked domain names in promotion? For example pornprostube.com etc Please advise.

The reason i ask is because the sponsors still havent figuired out how to get to the top of searches for even their own name, search on google for twistys tube, bang bros tube, etc and 9 of the top 10 will be result from rapid share and other tubes. Why not allow affiliate to promo your content and get those results? Why hammer a guy who wants to sell your stuff? Ford doesnt tell dealers not to use "ford" in their name. How many Joe Blow Ford dealers are in your area? I bought a car from bob gillingham ford.
