critique my affilate program....
 

tell me just how much it is ok or just how bad it sucks.....:helpme

any input would be greatly appreciated...Thanks in Advance! :winkwink:

Whats a heathen?

well an url and or whatever info would be nice so YES YOU SUCK at both the Interwebs and Ze Boards, does this help?

sorry about that....I thought you may had noticed the link below....but ok....here goes!

20 secs. loading time for the website is something to look at

do your sites convert and do you pay your webmasters? that's about all that matters.

yes, the affiliate site looks nice.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh Eyes man, eyes!

The flash banner takes for ever to load

:2 cents:

I would nix the flash banner, it really doesnt do anything for the site.

why do you have a javascript redirect to /index.html? Stupid... should be .htaccess redirect instead.

looks good except the flash banner :thumbsup

Yes we do and both counts!!! :thumbsup

Thanks!

Okay, sharphead help out the idiot....:helpme

I am the program manager...not the webmaster....so all criticism is accepted.

:2 cents::2 cents:

site is quite decent, kinda semi-pro design, which goes well for your sites theme. The flash intro takes forever to load and then forever to display information, which btw is more or less exactly the same info every single aff program displays, so why bother? And believe it or not, with 5 seconds is enough, why make it spin for 45 seconds/1 minute?

If I was in charge of that, I'd take that flash intro down and kick in the balls to whoever did it while yelling to him ANTIALIAS IS YOUR FRIEND!!! <--- (re: logo). Everything else looks OK, maybe I'd use a bigger font for the live text, after all that's the informative part.

See, the whole thing yells "we have sites (doh). They have girls (doh). We don't care much about letting you know anything else", and I assume that's not your intention. So, the site should tell the webmaster: "you'd signup and promote our sites because............... and we're different because.......................... and if you signup we'll do................................".

Telling the webmaster you're like everyone else out there only that new and unknown won't help you, esp if you gotta wait like 5 mins for the site to load and then display that useless flash intro

Not trying to be harsh, just trying to help :2 cents:

almost forget: you're against webmaster trying to remember your domain's name, right? Otherwise, I don't get what you're trying to achieve, that name is the closest thing to ahdsjkhadshjkhasd I can imagine and there are millions of easier to remember domains for reg fee :2 cents:

i like your site. the big buttons from the main page with Signup Here, Programs and Support goes in same place: index page :)
The other programs button goes to coming soon
Anyway, do you have FHGs for your sites or only banners?
Thanks

Thanks....

I do have FHG's but need programmer to make script code for me....so I only have banners at this time.

If you know someone that you do that code let me know. :thumbsup

looks good, the sites look like they would convert good, but why not increase the join price, would attract more affs with a higher payout

nice sites ..... congrats

do i have to sign up for each site separately?? why??

and why verotel??

Yes, you have to sign up for each site separately. The merchant account records the transactions separately from each site. This is their way of giving you a tally as to which sites you are promoting effectively or which sites are playing to your particular traffic. There are different audiences for each webmaster's traffic. You can sign up to whichever sites you'd like to promote, based on how you feel they will cater to your traffic. We are here to meet your needs, so if you have any personal specifications that you need handled, just email me at- [email protected]. Now if the answer to your question was unacceptable, then the alternative reason is that I'm a total dickhead and I want you to waste your good time by making you jump thru unnecessary hoops all in a childish effort to exercise control over you to satisfy my ego. Pick one answer please and have a wonderful day.

Verotel is a good merchant account that pays both properly and on time. They have good support and have always "gone the extra distance" when addressing issues. They are also the most cost effective and offer versatility to newer accounts. It's a good one to grow with. Now if you can site any "real" and not just some lame ass urban legend reports that they don?t pay out on time or that they "suck" in general I would ask that you forward them directly to me as well. I do see that they advertise right here on GFY....and GFY would pull any shitty program sponsors and not do businesses with them if all the "rumors" were actually true.

Looks OK. but my first thought was you put the money into the wrong site. Update your tours and give me something I know will sell, and I wouldn't care if your affiliate site was a sign-up form on a blank page.

Thats what I am in the process of doing.....WetandWildNymphos was the first to be redesigned.....thanks again! :thumbsup

site loading quick, looks good.

Read those before saying they gone the extra distance when addressing issues.

Again read those to see if they are "urban legends".

Lastly you are kidding right? GFY would pull a shitty program/sponsor/biller? :1orglaugh Past history has not shown that. Hell I am positive they have gotten it from a few of their own advertisers a few times. Even Ibill had ads here when they were fucking people.

Okay...thanks for the heads up....Its nice to see someone presenting more of a case then....just a "why"...Thanks After Shock! :thumbsup

No worries, I have no pony in this race and hope you do well.
I do understand that many will never give a reason which sucks, especially if your looking for info - though these same people will laugh at you when you bitch cause you got taken and then post the threads they should have when you first asked.

It also does not help that the search here sort of sucks and it is very hard to even find those threads - assuming you just searched for verotel. So if you missed them and did not know some other search terms posted in them, good luck finding it.

I have increased the price to $15.95...as once again on the newest redesign WaWN...the others will be following shortly!

slowing loading due to the flash ... nice site!

i kinda like it. :)

thanks for all the help and comments fellow GFY'ers! :thumbsup

yea...

like he said, your affiliate program is ok looking, much better than most of your sites.

Hit me up if you need help with updating the look and feel of your tours :thumbsup

at signup, should immediately take potential affiliate to the actual sign-up form, NOT make them choose which site they want to promote, what if they want to promote all the sites, or 2 of the sites. You will get more signups if takes directly to form...

http://www.greedyheathens.com/signup.html

:2 cents:

Contact me if you'd like anymore advice... I'd be happy to share

#2 - as a person with an eye for design and usability. the Navigation bar should be right below the header... NOT at the very top of the site... usability-wise this is impractical and not user friendly...


#3 - sign-in form should NOT open in new window... open in same window

#4 - http://www.greedyheathens.com/contactus.html - that blue link on that dark pink background is horrid, and hurts the eyes ;)

#5 - on the main page none of the Graphic links work... "Sign Up Here" - "Programs" - "Support" - take you to - http://www.greedyheathens.com/index.html# - instead of where they should take you

#6 - on CONTACT page... says "[email protected]" this is very impersonal to an affiliate, you want to give them a name with that email, and an ICQ, AIM, or some Instant Messaging method of contact - they want to know they aren't sending an email into the black void of nothingness :)

Again, contact me if you'd like some more pointers


Also, Deej ^^^ (posted above me) is an excellent designer, highly recommended

You need NATS! Hit up Vlad (TMMVlad on AIM) so I can yell at him for giving deals that are too good again.

I see at least 3 different fonts on the main page. It would look a lot better with all of them the same.

You gotta be kidding me. Have you actually searched here?

Stop using Plesk...

If you want to give me your sales pitch either email me at email provided above or call me at 727-204-4220. I don?t bite and would be happy to listen to your proposal.

What I DONT do....Twitter....MySpace...Facebook...IM of ANY such kind ICQ, YIM ETC.....why you ask....simple......there was a time in business where none of this was available but yet business got DONE surprisingly enough....someone had also said it was very impersonal just to have some plain generic email address for support.....

I guess I must be OLD school.....call me....ask ALL of the questions in less then 20 minutes and if that satisfies your curiosity....go with my program....as far as the Verotel problem I will again once address it in another post....sorry but I am doing some due diligence on that response.

Thanks once again....and have taken all your comments under consideration and hope to see you all on board as affiliates.

Pretty much everyone in this industry uses Icq. As much as I love emails, there are some issues that can be dealt with via icq faster and it saves me from having 1000's of emails a day. :2 cents:

Yes I know its industry standard ICE....but after being on some Nigerian ICQ list....that went out the door...I salute you all for dealing with that shit my patience level is not that high....but again to me it is the same as with the "talent" texting me for work...a little too impersonal....and besides...I have tried to do it OVER and OVER and OVER again with no success because it is not multiple questions its DO THIS...THIS WAY OR I WILL FIND SOMEONE WHO IS MORE COMPETENT THEN YOU TO DO IT FOR ME. I really don?t have time to waste going back and forth day after day.....just to have something done and fully understand the first time around...if I wanted to do that I would have become a tennis star.

If Warren Buffet, Donald Trump and Bill Gates use it I may consider going back into the fray.....but if you must take something from successful businessmen...if they don?t use it then why are some folks still living or at least being content in the dark ages?

And since there aren't any successful business people reading this and offering you free advice...
:2 cents:

As much as icq may be the dark ages... it is still the industry standard.
