Sponsors pay you to sell their sites, not just generate traffic. If your not selling with good text, no matter what type of traffic, it will not convert as well as a well laid out description.

Talk to some review guys and ask them about their conversions.
On the descriptions though, it's tough for Webmasters to write good, quality descriptions on niched traffic. Reason is, they might not know the niche well enough and use wrong terms. ie: calling a tranny "gay" - I've run into that a lot.

I know one program who has incredible niched, exclusive content yet their WM ratios are HORRIBLE. I start looking into it and talking to a rep over there and a lot is that their webmasters don't promote it correctly with the text.

I think a program should offer keywords to use for niches or have several descriptions or lines that can be generated to make unique descriptions within the WM admin.
