Anyone who is supporting new programs that dont give earnings for rebills is not wise.. and thats coming from a program owner

If you affiliates show you dont mind by continuing to promote it, they'll all switch to that, guaranteed. You dont want that
Unfortunately many affiliates now are just doing this for beer money. There are some who are full time and know their stuff but it's like 3:1 mostly with the "beer money barons" as barefootsies calls them in the majority. These guys tend to support theft, think Nasty Dollar's stats go by 1st page raws and love hosted solutions which pay them 30 cents a day (so they don't have to buy hosting). They have no clue as to what money used to be (and still is with much more work) available in this industry as an affiliate. They just want to earn enough for a car payment or to buy a new XBox game each month. I'm not an elitist but their ignorance tends to make things harder for other affiliates because they make affiliates look like nothing more than a bunch of suckers who aren't serious and will fall for anything. It's always been like this a little bit though.
