Bigger issue than Zango... AFF shaves!
Well if they are involved in this Zango conspiracy, who would actually trust that their stats would be accurate?
Not like you can even do a test order, since they provide no data to the affiliate, no way to confirm anything.:2 cents: |
Zango = 5-10% shave
|
LOL...
I was thinking exactly the same thing before I saw this thread. Fucking cheaters and scammers...in the end will just be losers. |
This might be a long thread.
|
What you mean they don't provide data? You can see hits, profiles, sales, etc...?

I pulled down all of my AFF/Cams.com links a few days ago because of the zango shit :NopeNope
|
i'm delinking AFF
|
Zango is big shit, but I don't think AFF is shaving anyone, if they were, we would already got to see some stats showing it :2 cents:

just to let you know i have done a test signup with cams.com and it worked.
|
post some stats....
|
AFF stats are the worst in the industry. For a good reason.
|
while I applaud the cause, you people are only focusing on Zango. If everyone would realize that Zango (180 solutions) is NOT the only company/software that does this, there's more in the range of 40 different companies that do this... think of the impact of those _40_ some-odd programs are having on traffic these days.

Ultimately I think all the effort will be time wasted. I am still considering promoting Zango and the other 40+ scumbags until things get so bad that the government has no choice but to step in and shut them down. |
The lack of an official AFF response in threads like this make me wonder who decides their public relations moves.
Whoever it is, they aren't earning their fur hat allotment. |
Stupid double posts.

You're missing the point... do the math and think of what percentage of traffic is affected by these programs as a whole before they even get to you, and you soon realize that as much as 40% of traffic is currently going into the adware chasm without being productive. If Zango is only 1-2% of traffic, remember they all add up. While it's a noble cause to go after one, it's only going to mean that when that one is gone, there's 39 or so left to fight. |
Yup... but Ladymischief, although I take alexa rankings and stats with a grain of salt, there is some proof there. The reach of AFF is down 25% this month from last, and I can't help but think that webmasters de-linking them is part of that reduction, especially in the face of apparently increased spending.
Other programs should take note: You too could suddenly lose a ton of traffic for playing with the wrong people. Zango is only one of many, but the warning applies evenly across all of these sorts of things. |
The thread title makes it sound like you know they are shaving when your post speculates that you think they may do it (you had an exclamation point in the title but a question mark in your first post)
The people calling for an AFF response, the thread has been going for around 6 hours, and on the west coast its still very early + it’s a holiday, I just woke up after passing out early last night after Thanksgiving Dinner, so I woke up at 6am and thought I would check out gfy… I glanced at the alexa rankings for aff a few weeks ago (I cant pull alexa up right now) and imo it did not appear to have changed recently, the trend looked consistent from the end of last year I try to stay out of threads like this but thought I would make the above points, with all due respect |

On the other hand, even if it were possible to organize a strategy instead of having to make do with the uncertainties of board drama, it likely would be sensible to focus on one target at a time. In terms of this board at least, that could mean AFF, cams.com and by extension, Zango. |

Corvette, you need to re-check those alexa numbers, because the reality is different from what you are thinking. Recent numbers show a drop in overall rank, and upwards to 25% drop in reach (pages per million). As for "give AFF a break, it's thanksgiving", we have been waiting for reponses on these issues for a while now, it ain't the turkey (at least not the edible kind) that is keeping them from the boards. The only time Lars or Sagi has come here to discuss this was to try to tar and feather Will and clickcash... otherwise their entire game plan has been to avoid the subject and keep their contest threads bumped, even if they need fake nick low post count people to do it. |
i still cant pull up alexa so im going off of memory, but i dont disagree that there is a 25% drop from one month to another, but when i looked, i though that drop started before this year, and was pretty consistant...
i was not talking about a response to any overlying issue, just about a response to this thread...i am in, or close to the same timezone as lars and the thread was started after midnight the day after thanksgiving and i checked it at 6 |
Okay, Alexa came back:
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/tr...iendfinder.com 3 month rank 67, current 85 (same for the week average)... 25% drop 3 month reach: 9565 current 7600, about a 21% drop. Considering that reach peaked out around 14,000 or so, 7600 is a pretty major drop off. Just as importantly, looking at the reach graph, you can see the drop off relative to Zango here and people indicating that they are removing AFF. Actions = reactions. |
