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.

Your advice is for me to build my site for the google.
I think I should build my site for the surfer.
The surfer doesn't care that another website has the same description on the same
gallery as I do(in fact they might like it since they don't click it again).
Also, the duplicate content is already there because we are linking to the same
gallery anyway.
It's not like google sees the same gallery 1000 times with 1000 descriptions and
thinks "wow this is 1000 unique contents".
Google actually crawls the images in the gallery and finds the duplicate content.
It's is probably more reasonable that a gallery will get a penalty for having 1000
different descriptions linking to it because that's like keyword spamming.
And it's fitting that you should provide this answer because it was pimproll
that I was clicking in that finally pissed me off.
So like I already said, this post is useless.
At the end of the day you will decide to tell me how I should build my site rather
then listen to how I want to build my site.
The sponsor affiliate relationship is such that the affiliate is treated more like
an annoyance rather then a customer that generates income for you business.
I'm the customer, but you are going to tell me how to shop and that what I want is not worth your time.
Bottom line, most sponsors that I dropped had poor webmaster dumps.
The one's I still promote have better dumps, not good dumps just better.
I tried to promote galleries from hushmoney email but instead of a simple
list of links and description they send an html page where you can't even
copy more than one link at a time.
I've got a mail box full of galleries from other sponsors, so why waste time on
stuff like that?
Finally, this is the only business in the world were a company allows promoters
to use their own unapproved language to describe the product. The reason other
businesses don't allow this is because they know their product better then the
promoters and their language will sell it better.
If you ask me to write a description for the "balloon niche" then the only thing
I will say is "Stupid shit with balloons click here". I don't know how to sell that shit.
You made it, so tell me what it is and suggest the language to use to sell it.
My site is K-mart, I sale your stuff, his stuff and tons of stuff.
I can't be an expert in all that stuff so put some writing on the box so I can
read it and figure out what I"m selling.
I downloaded 200 banners from pimproll and it took two days and probably
4000 clicks (including going back and forth for byot and regular banners)
Every time I get a byot banner the page goes back to regular banners so
I need to click the byot button again to get the next byot banner.
And since I dumped galleries first and use the galleries to find the banners
I didn't know if I need to look in the regular banners or the byot banners.
Put all you banners in a zip file bro and name them after the site with .gif
extensions.
