Anything over 100$ minimum payout is truly ridiculous. Read what I found in an affiliate program I signed up for. Don't get me wrong, it's a pretty good program. But it's going to take me at least a few months to hit their minimum payout, especially since I'm new:

The minimum payout is $500. If this amount is not reached in one month the amount will be carried over to the next month(s) untill it is reached.

If you can believe that!

And my other pet peeve is putting their site URL on the banners. BIG NO NO. If they are clicking the banner and going to your site with my code, that is the way it should be. They should not be seeing your URL and typing it in. NOT when it's coming from my pages! I DO NOT put banners with the URL on it anywhere on any of my sites
