Sending traffic directly to affiliates, keeping them on your site & preselling
 

Hello guys,
Cannot wait to read your two cents about this.

Take for example a normal affiliate cam site, like in my sig. I can't post one yet cause I haven't reached 30 posts.

If you click on the "free chat" link or any performer image you will see that performers profile page, info and free chat.

SCENARIO 1:

1. User searches on google for keyword "live sex" (just as example, still dreaming about such a competitive term).
2. User comes to my site, see's the girls and clicks on one, which he likes.
3. User is taken to the free chat on MY SITE and starts chatting.
4. User likes that model and signs up.

Pros: user gets really hot chatting with a model and decides to signup right then and there.
Cons: number of actual clicks to affiliates is small.

This is classic marketing with pre selling but I have some doubts. It's very risky in my opinion... you need to have a great site.

SCENARIO 2:

What do you think of the following scenario?
1. User searches on google for keyword "live sex" (just as example, still dreaming about such a competitive term).
2. User comes to my site, see's the girls and clicks on one, which he likes.
3. Instead of taking him to the free chat on MY site, send him directly to my AFFILIATE.

Pros:
1. more clicks
2. member is somewhat sold cause he searched on google for live sex so I'm not sure there is a need for preselling like in my first scenario.

Cons:
1. time on site, returning visitors percent will suffer.
2. the preselling might not be enough - the member comes to my site, see's a girl, clicks and is taken on my affiliate site but does not have money. Clears his browser, no cookies, comes back after 1 week and buys directly. :)

What would you do?
Keep them on your site?
Funnel them straight to the affiliate?

P.S.Remember this is google targeted traffic.

If there was unfiltered, general traffic than the idea would be to keep them on the site.

Also, we have to consider that we have a good site that would keep him interested.

Take care!
