But then I became brave by posting more, with one of my cam sites in the signature (I even asked opinions - one told I should go fry burgers at McDonalds, then what?). As a result in fact I got funny and unfunny hate replies, especially by "Venusblogger" (and his next fake-nicks) and the such.
However, I also got a fair number of business deals from GFY, not just affiliates, so it was worth the trolling side effects. Especially, I got a lots of pay users signups from GFY threads, did you know that most of pageviews are from surfers? 
About affiliates, even if nearly no one regular posters signed-up, there's lots of those who never post (or not even have an account), but reads time to time, or simply finds the gfy threads searching for keywords such as "chaturbate alternative", "myfreecams affiliate", "livejasmin sucks" etc., they read the thread, find my cam affiliate from signature, and signup. Some of these affilates worth hundreds or thousands of mine signups, so this is well worth Venusblogger trolling.
On a side note, most of those trolls been banned; and now are there with fake nicks and keeping lower profile not to be identified and banned again. This is even less funny. |
Right now my cam site is undergoing a design overhaul, mobile streaming is being implemented and some unique features are being implemented and tested. This is not a good time to go public with it for me, as even valid opinions will likely be based on obsolete design and functionality.
The affiliates I have are all bringing their own promo tools and working around some huge issues we have like rev-share not working properly and other things that just wouldn't be acceptable for a public affiliate program. All of this is in progress, has been for a long time and will likely continue to be for awhile, since we bootstrapped the project with almost no cash and are using the income that comes in slowly to improve step by step.
It's not that hard to find out what sites I run and I am willing to discuss it privately, I just don't need to put it in my sig just yet.
