Converting traffic takes time, skills etc. It makes perfect sense for some people (especially those with larger networks) to sell some of their traffic.
Let's say your main interracial sponsor's conversion ratio's dropped below a certain point and you are busy working on a new project and just don't have the time right now to research and evaluate other interracial sponsors. In that case it would make perfect sense to redirect your interracial banner clicks to a traffic broker until you have the time to research other interracial sponsors.
Let's say your main lesbian sponsors converts great on US traffic but doesn't convert German traffic. In that case it makes sense to send your German traffic to another lesbian sponsor, one that is able to convert German traffic. And it might also make sense to send your mobile lesbian traffic to yet another sponsor.... It might even make sense to send your lesbian traffic coming from one traffic source to a revshare link and lesbian traffic coming from another traffic source to a PPS link.
Getting the most of our your traffic takes a lot of time and effort and some times it makes more sense to sell (some of) your traffic for a lower (but guaranteed) price than investing more time and earning more as an affiliate.
If (($income-from-affiliate-programs - $opportunity-cost-of-earning-income-from-affiliate-programs - $income-from-selling-traffic) < $a-certain-level){ print "it makes sense to sell productive traffic"; }
