There is a reason affiliates are leaving the business and it isn't because they are not driving revenue. It's that they are not getting an ever increasing portion of the revenue they are actually sending programs due to a number of factors. It's turning into a very poor deal to be an affiliate with your average adult program. A large portion of affiliates are too stupid to realize the various scams pulled on them but one thing even the stupidest ones understand is that their checks are getting less and less as time goes on.

The reality of the situation is that most programs could offer affiliates 100% rev share under the current terms and tracking and still come out way ahead. A 7% fee is nothing compared to what the affiliate is likely sending in 2011 and not getting a cut of.

The only right answer is -- Who gives you the biggest pay check for the amount of traffic you send.

If I sent 100K to a sponser paying 100%
and the same 100K to a sponser paying 20%.
The first program only had one sale, the quit after the trail
the second program had 10 sales, and every month half of the month before rebilled, I think I would take the second program.

Some programs have ZERO upsells , Cross sales, and don't email the members, or even pop ups.
Some programs rape the hell out of the surfer that just joined.

If you want 50% of the upsell then, we should have ccbill add in a place to split hosting, design, model fees, and so on.

Again you can argue this from many different angles, but it all comes down to
ROI or amout made per click!

Have a good day!
