Despite affiliates attempts to prove they are the greatest and the porn Internet couldn't survive without them the truth is different.
Affiliates do no more than suggest to surfers where to go, if they do send them to the join page they can only do that honestly with content from the site.
They don't create traffic, the people are already looking for porn. If there were 1% of affiliates there would be no less surfers looking for porn. In fact today the most traffic is on sites that rely very little on affiliates. Has traffic dropped in the last 10 years? Since the introduction of Tubes affiliates earn a lot less from suggesting porn sites today.
Content was always king, from the days of Newsgroup, to TGPs to today's Tubes surfer go to places that have content. They're not looking to be herded around by anything else but content. The idea that they're sheep to be sent where the affiliates decide is stupid. Any shepherd who loses 46 out of 47 sheep would be sacked. That doesn't include the people who look at a sample or page and reject it without clicking a link.
For over 20 years ratios have told you how good affiliates are. 1 in 200 means 199 out of 200 didn't buy when sent by these geniuses to the sites. Maybe as many as 999 didn't anything by going to the next promotion.
The reason is simple, the people see what's offered and didn't like it. It wasn't good enough, free is better and does the job, they don't trust the person suggesting the site or the site, etc.
So no excuses that you convert 1 in a 1,000 because 999 don't like porn, don't have credit cards, etc.
