And someone should remind him that 200 tracked signups in a week = piles of untracked signups due to no cookies, new devices used, type ins, branding, boosted search results and everything else that would cause sales to outpace referrals. Literally the reasons programs could pay so much for signups and he's oblivious to it or pretends to be.  |
well - thatīs around 80 k per month, after aprox. 2 years in revenue if the site costs 30 dollar per month. with 30 signups per day and an average of 25% signoff-quote (or holding time 4 month) the maximum number of members can be around 2.700.
if you calculate here 50% affiliates 25% server and payment an owner should live quite good - especially when he does not have content costs.
but IF he have to buy the content for the price paul thinks to be fair - he will not make a cent.
so IF affiliate programm paul buys content from content producer paul, affiliate paul can not make money so it does not make sense to keep the affiliate programm running.
but if content producer paul can not sell his content to affiliate paul he need to find another affiliate programm that is willing to spend ALL their profit to buy content from paul on a fair price.
what a wonderful world where only paul makes money.
