Got another chargeback at a sponsor I won't name now, so I wonder how often you normally see chargebacks/deductions and whether this is shady..
Here's the plot: I have a network of blogs on my domains' subdomains, maybe 50-60 blogs, all handwritten, but haven't been updated now for around a year (I got sidetracked and those sites are on slowly going to die). They get very low traffic (80% google, a good part is probably image search which I know is shit so I redirected that, and 20% from my other blogs and blog directories).

To this particular sponsor, they've been sending (declining curve) from 130 to 75-80 uniques per day (yes, low, said so), over the last two years. So far, after 40550 uniques and 358 join attempts (I guess personal information submits, then declined & redirected), I got 5 signups, and 3 of those charged back. This is in 2-3-4 month gaps, no consecutive sales within 1 day etc.
Some of their paysites are of the $35-45 per FREE signup sort..

Does this sound normal at all?
