the only way i was personally able to avoid lower amounts was being backed by a large amount of capital.

maybe the sponsor is not shaving but if they are purposely sticking with methods that they know processors are no longer liking and in turn playing with affiliate joins trying to milk things until they hit the fan. i dont know what you would call that. it is not shaving but close enough imo.

they know what the state of processing is, and alot are choosing to make one final blast to see how far they can push it. that is why so many programs are going under now. it is a processing issue not a join issue.

there could be alot of reasons why the processing is not going through. what type of sites do the processors have a history of processing? take a look at this and understand why they may be behind the scenes being further regulated and why joins are down.

it used to be "what processor do you guys use?" and than in turn trust your billing with that company. i think the exact opposite now.

"what company do you guys not use?" and there lies your answer. alot of processors billed high risk for many years and you may in turn be clumped in with other deemed high risk sites even though yours is not.
You are right on the money in this post too. But everytime I try and take a stab at it I delete what I wrote. It is a tough one to stab into and I will leave it to others.

It does ring true to me tho and I appreciate it. Let me digestize it a bit then maybe I'll have more comment.

See this is where us affils are in the dark as we really only know what is going on only from our stats. But yeah, a lot stopped selling that is for sure. And I should be changing links right now.
