Affiliates = traffic. Period. If a webmaster sends a visitor to a site from his site that webmaster wants and expects to get paid. And he should. That 50% for paysite affiliates Paul is bitching about is EXACTLY what I as a Program Owner want! Why? Because it's free money. It's a FREE sale Paul. It's a sale I would otherwise not get. So, to me, it's passive income. Yay affiliates!

Now this does not mean I stop my own "in-house" traffic generation. Of course I make more without affiliates (duh) but see above. It's not an either/or situation. You do/have BOTH. Get affiliates AND you do your own traffic generation, traffic and media buys, link exchanges, etc etc.

Geez Louise. LOL



If ALL your sales/revenue is 50% from paysites and you are shooting content 1-3 times per week for updates then yes 50% would be a tough margin. But hopefully only a % of your money comes from affiliates.
