![]() I agree w/ Porn MD. It's not stated in the terms. Shoehorn saw some low hanging fruit and he grabbed it. He's spending his own money on the PPC campaigns, so to decide to stop paying him out on it with no warning or discussion is a little harsh and leaving him holding the bag. We're not talking about someone in Nigeria running a bunch of BS cards through socks, we're talking about Shoehorn- he's not a scam artist and he wasn't trying to rip anyone off. You guys are both pretty straight up, I hope you can work it out. ![]() |

My campaign ran for 3 whole months without him saying a word, giving me a warning, nothing. Then he decided I was breaking a rule that never existed in his TOS and that he wouldn't pay me the money I had earned.

Dirty D = marketing genius? (not!)
Since you're not smart enough to implement it yourself you should be happy you have (had) an affiliate smart enough to actually market your crap. LOOK, LEARN, PAY Shoehorn! Pay Shoehorn his well earned aff commissions plus $2000-$3000 marketing consulting fees. Oh no wait, just go jackoff in your local movie theater, that should boost sales! |

But I keep reading all these people saying things like that quote. HOW IN THE FUCK IS BUYING A GOOGLE AD WORD FOR THE DOMAIN NAME = "marketing" Do any of you actually own a site that sends traffic? Or do any of you understand that marketing is all about bringing new eyes to the site? Jesus fucking Christ. So you all think that it's some kind of skill to just buy adwords for website names? That is NOT SEO work. This isn't a slap at you Shoehorn or any taking of sides. I'm just reading the fucking peanut gallery on here running off at the fucking mouth when they don't even understand what the hell they are talking about. All of you should just shut the fuck up and stop showing your goddamn ignorance. Bunch of fucking idiots. |

He never warned me in anyway that he didn't accept PPC traffic. He never told me to stop bidding on keywords, nothing. He let me continue to send traffic and told me I was violating his terms (which didn't exist) when I contacted him, meanwhile letting me continue to send him sales. This is a matter of Dirty D not paying his affiliates for sales they earned, plain and simple.

Youre just interjecting with something contradictory or what? I mean there is one simple outcome/answer/resolution here... no one said it was master SEO work. It was said in detail how it was done and no one once claimed it to be superior SEO... that phrase may have been mentioned but only in other instances... not this one at hand. Point being is he sent sales... they were accepted and paid on. Then all the sudden D notices how they are coming in. now reguardless of its accepted or not, it wasnt in his TOS and he never did tell shoehorn to stop sending it. Thus still sending sales to DirtyD. He knew what he was doing. He was hoping to benefit from shoehorn's PPC sales as l0ong as he could before shoehorn got bent our of shape(rightfully so) and said something about it. Now its public that DirtyD dosnt take such traffic. He took it at first then kept taking it but stopped paying on it without notifying a business partner of how he feels. Just kept taking those sales.... although he dosnt accept sales like that ![]()

Honestly Shoehorn...this whole thing doesn't look good EITHER way. You're out of $350 right? And the concensus seems to be that it's such a small amount that Dirty D should just pay you and then it's all good. Well, if it's such a small amount...and you know that buying the domain name as an adword ain't exactly kosher...then why not work something out with him? In this day and age of piracy if you can find ANY paysite that you can get sales with...why cut your own throat with them? Fuck. I'm looking at around 400 different programs I promote...the ratios are HORRENDOUS. Dirty D offered you $100 PPS for a solid month if you would only send sales some other way than buying his domain name as an adword. So if you really think you can promote something and really send new sales that he wouldn't already have...then why don't you just do it and make a HUGE payday? This is a two way street. And you should be able to see his side too. Or you can come to GFY and post it and pretty much close off that relationship forever. And with the way things are these days? It's not a good idea for us affiliates to be taking a dump on programs. I don't care what the uninformed on here have to say about sending traffic elsewhere. Number 1, that isn't your traffic. It's Google traffic that you bought. Number 2, there just aren't that many paysites converting anymore. I know you're pissed off...but if I may give a dissenting point of view here: You can turn this into something good. And that's from me. Or, you can listen to all the guys on here who don't make much money in this business and never will. If it were me, I'd rather work with Dirty D. He's been around a long time. And he's very smart about making money in porn. I'd take him up on that 100 PPS offer and test my skills as an affiliate and see what I could make of it. These people on GFY are just here having fun. They don't give a damn about you and they don't have a clue. |

Type-in any site name at Google and the result will list 10 regular links, along with sponsored links and also sidebar links. That's an awful lot of real estate to lose someone on. If they don't click one link, they'll click another. If I can have five out of 15 links going to my site, affiliate or not, and not going to torrents... that's not too bad. Much better than zero out of 15. |

Maybe we aren't reading the same threads here or something. But I'm seeing people being vitriolic and smart asses and talking about "hard working affiliates" I AM a hard working affiliate. And I don't buy a fucking ad word. That isn't work. That isn't marketing. And that is what I was addressing. All the idiots on here running down a man's business with their goddamn ignorance. Whether or not Dirty D is going to pay ShoeHorn is up to them. I have no opinion on that. I just don't like seeing a person's business being beat up by a bunch of no-nothing people. If I were ShoeHorn I'd take him up on that $100 PPS for a month offer and work my ass off to bankrupt Dirty D with all the sales I'd send. But again, that's between the two of them. |

I just did a search for "Her First Anal Sex" and lo and behold... what do I find on the right-hand advertising bar? A link that goes to a cam site.

Last time, pay attention please. I was sending him sales via PPC campaigns AND GETTING PAID ON THOSE SALES for 3 months. All was fine. Suddenly the payouts stopped. Do you understand so far? I didn't get an email from him, or an ICQ, or a phone call, nothing. I just stopped getting paid, WHILE HE KEPT ACCEPTING MY SALES. When I contacted him he said "oh, you're bidding on our keywords, we aren't going to pay you". There was no TOS about this. There was no warning. There was nothing, he just decided to stop paying me, but continued accepting my traffic and sales. Thats what this thread is about. Not about SEO. Not about marketing. Its 100% about him not paying me the money that he owes me. Everyone else in this thread can comprehend that, not sure why you and Dirty D are having so much trouble.

If I'm a surfer and I wanted to find your site and I typed Her First Anal Sex into Google...I would not be satisfied until I clicked a link that took me there. I'm not gonna be happy going to some cam site. Would you? And if that first link isn't yours and really is an affiliates...then you need to get to work on the SEO on that site and regain that spot. It's VERY valuable. |

This same thing just happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I was bidding on long tail keywords, with the sites name in it. They argued it was in their TOS that I couldn't bid on their exact name, well I wasn't really, there were several words around it and it was set to exact match. They argued with me, paid me and told me not to do it again.
So I now sent that exact traffic somewhere else. That's 5 sales a day from one key phrase, someone else is now getting. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out they screwed up! Why is it so hard for programs to understand how this game works! I really think they have no clue about how ppl search!

And this is what should happen in my case. He doesn't want me to send sales via PPC, fine, pay me what I am owed and we can both go our separate ways.
But to just stop paying someone without warning or without letting them know, all while still accepting their traffic and sales is 100% wrong.

Do you not think that its DirtyD's obligation to pay Shoehorn? Yes or no... not some drawn out "they should work something out" reply... SHoehorn sent sales. DirtyD accepted them. D later found out how they were coming in. realized he dosnt like that tactic, or rather shouldnt pay someone for that form of traffic. Shouldnt he then tell shoehorn tostop? Or since he still took the sales and converted the members.... dont you think he should get paid for that? Its not in the contractual binding agreement between the two. Answer yes or no... Should Shoehorn be paid?

The program I was dealing with at least contacted me and let me know, you can't just stop paying and expect ppl to be happy. Most companies don't realize what these campaigns can cost a person. This one in particular could have bankrupted me if they hadn't contacted me and just decided not to pay, a week, a month, 3 months later. So the company is stand up they just don't have a clue otherwise.

But that didn't happen and a compromise offer of a month of $100 PPS was put on the table. That was refused. So perhaps Shoehorn shouldn't have bought the domain name on adwords to begin with. And then perhaps Dirty D shouldn't have gotten so pissed about it and contacted him and paid him up to current and shut him down. But I can't tell Dirty D what to do. After all this bullshit on here...I doubt Dirty D is gonna pay, though I could be wrong. My guess is Dirty D won't lose a single serious affiliate one way or another. Hell, there aren't a handful of them left now. If a site is making sales, nobody smart is going to walk away from it and promote a site that isn't making sales. These are tough times. |

It is so silly, a affiliate buying your keywords is cheaper for a program then let them send the traffic to the competition and the need to bid higher and start a pissing game.
Send it to the competition Shoehorn, they will be more then happy with it. Only thing Dirty can do is bid against it and loosing even more money. |

Of course not.
Theres no way I (or any other sane person for that matter) would put more time and effort into promoting a program that already owes them money and isn't paying.

I don't know. I think if someone typed those three words they are looking for THAT site and that site only. Dirty D has done a helluva job of making CrackWhore Confessions a world famous site. I could be wrong about it...but I think sending an adword campaign for the term "Crackwhore Confessions" anywhere except the actual site would end up being a money loser. It's just too targeted. |

Unlike se listings, using adwords gives you full control over how exactly the link will look - creating the opportunity to not only increase chances of a click going to the site in question rather than a tube or torrent site, but also possibly enticing the user to consider joining the site instead of continuing to search for free stuff. Compare it to a billboard right in front of the store it advertises. Everyone who passes it should notice the store as well, and yet it is likely to still bring in additional customers.

And any affiliate that continues to send him traffic should think twice before doing so. Its my $350 he stole this time, next time it might be a bigger fish.

2. Yes, it wasn't in the TOS. Not sure when Dirty D realized what was going on, I'm no mind reader. In my opinion he was probably pissed off as hell that he had ever paid out money on an adword of his domain and acted irrationally. But I don't know that. Just a guess. 3. This whole thing sucks from the beginning to the end. 4. To all the programs I promote: I own sites and work hard as an affiliate to bring people to your site that may have never heard of you before. I'm a promoter and an affiliate. That's my job. |
