Freaky Beaver just doesnt get the whole thing. Maybe you should run a program since you understand this biz so well.

Do you realize that we pay webmasters $40 per signup on a 1.98 trial membership that 75% cancel. So lets do the numbers...

If you do 4 signups we make 1.98 x 4... about $4 dollars after we pay fees... Now we paid you $160 dollars. Only 1 of the 4 signups you sent goes past the trial and stays 1.5 months for about $50 bucks after fees... So we are in the hole 100 bucks right out the gate. And you wonder why we have so many exit consoles? And you wonder why we have to lower payouts like CE did a year + ago? Its all in the numbers that you fail to see. Not to mention if any of those 4 signups charges back we have to pay a fine.
