there's no point providing affiliates with promo tools. they just need site links. the free content model no longer brings in sales for paysites. traffic has to be bought from non-tube sources at an acceptable profit margin. |
Thanks
From time to time I'll have too much caffeine and get a little time on my hands and just feel like typing
I figured might as well throw down a few of my ideas and maybe somebody else can benefit.
I believe there is a great opportunity for old school affiliates right now. The key is they have to realize where the industry is and where it is going. I'm sure some can survive moving forward but most will not. So what they should do is find a way to offer their services to smaller paysite companies. Guys like RK may not be interested but a lot of the other paysite companies are slim staffed companies that can't do everything. Partnering up with them and using their resources and your skills could prove to work out really well for both of you.
