Questions about Traffic
 

I am trying to understand a bit more about traffic and its role in driving sales. Now I understand not all traffic is the same but if traffic doesn't convert, does it fall on the affiliate or does it fall on the sponsor? I realize that different traffic sources may convert better than others depending on the user but where does the ultimate responsibility of the sale come in? At what ratio do you decide to drop the sponsor and focus elsewhere? I guess what I am trying to ask is the job of the affiliate is to get the traffic to the sponsor and its the sponsor's job to convert the sale, right?

Appreciate any insight on this.

If the sponsors have good content, good marketing tools and if you have great traffic (like from USA, Canada, Uk) you can convert very well... But you need to choose the correct niche of your sponsor to see your conversions going up...
