Sponsors: Save money with contest threads
 

Business as usual with the contest threads, except one small change. Only payout the prize to your own affiliates who have sent or will send at least 1 sale in 30 days. You'll still get all the same exposure, save a ton of money and actually encourage active affiliates instead of contest whores.

Then your thread will only get to two pages instead of 20+

Put it to a test Pete! :)

Bump for 2nd page...

I guess the branding lies in having the thread on the first page for days?!

And .. can be done without 20 pages. Someone bumping the thread 50 times when it's already at the top of the 1st page isn't giving it any extra recognition.

Someone should make a poll or something trying to figure how many real webmasters those thread attract. Like i totally avoid them and i tend not to use sponsors who run these annoying contests. I cant imagine many serious webmasters signing up for a program who brands itself this way.

Put it in fine print at the end of the post, contest whores won't read it anyway. :Graucho

How will Firehorse make money if he doesn't get cash from these things? Poor guy.

Wild guess... Work? :)

hahahahahaha

Someone should try it.

I couldn't agree more with Brujah! It definitely became ridiculous with all those fucking surfers from 3rd world countries! Especially in PussyCash threads, it's insane..... From all posters at least 60% are PURE PURE surfers.

I recommend sponsors to change their contests' policy and award only real webmasters instead of bunch of losers who register here just to post and win free money w/o any effort!

bump for 2nd page :)
