My feelings are mixed.
I webmaster for a website that is signed up with the Spread4U affiliate program. We had the Spread4U link up for almost a year because the company owner felt that "live chat" should be an option for the surfers going to his site. He never received a commission payment. After removing the Spread4U banner, within a week he received a phone call from a disappointed client asking what had happened to it. The company owner explained that he hadn't made any money from the link and that's why it was no longer there. A few days later he received his first commission check and consistantly received checks every month for the next 6 months.
Either my client's website wasn't converting at all (totally possible) or there was shaving. Since it is a low-traffic website, I can't say for sure either way.
