This!


I've been burned too many times by assuming that some program with a good bro-rep would have reasonable terms. Over time I've learned that the single most important criterion from an affiliate perspective is "Does this program have a bone-deep commitment to paying its affiliates? Or is it always on the lookout for excuses not to pay?"

The programs that are eager for ways to pocket your money will virtually always telegraph this in their TOS.
