why cant there be more positive threads like this....way to go sac and nasty dollars :thumbsup

Nice work :)

Sweet payout

yeah i got two sales also i am a happy guy :)

That is downright Naaasty!

lucky guy!

Way to go

So let me know when you'll be sending our share of those sales you generated to NastyDollars yesterday. Julie would like her cut and as the program owner I would also like mine.

1. I see that you posted your NastyDollars stats screenshot to http://www.naughtyjulieblog.com/nd.gif.

2. You're quite obviously using her branded name as your URL http://www.naughtyjulieblog.com to generate traffic and then send it off to sponsor sites unrelated to NaughtyJulie or NaughtyBank.

3. You have lifted the actual header graphic directly from her site http://www.naughtyjulie.com/1/ for use on your "blog".

4. You're using a large amount of her content to generate traffic and then siphon it off to another sponsor program.

I most likely would not have made an issue out of any single one of the above items however all 4 items together and the fact that you've got the audacity to post your NastyDollars screen shot to this forum on a domain that capitalizes on our branding efforts and Julie's content is just a bit too much!

That's really great for NastyDollars that you sent them 8 sales yesterday using Julie's branded name and content but since you sent exactly 0 sales to NaughtyJulie it's not such a great deal for us now is it? Hit me up asap to let me know when I should expect my share of your NastyDollars profits and we'll also discuss your use of naughtyjulieblog.com going forward.

3 yesterday was expecting about 6 so a lil disapointed, but 3 already today

SAC seems you just lost your blog,

But i see 3 links at the very top and webcam thumbs thats it, so jake i see him pushing julie allover the blog and a few other sponsors to fill gaps, i see nothing wrong with that.

You honestly belive 1 link to RK sent 463 hits and 8 sales from that blog ?

That would mean the blog gets 0000's of hits a day and you probally get daily sales from it.

So it's ok if I just put up 3 links to other sponsor programs in our tours and not compensate the affiliate for sales I make to those programs from the traffic that they send to our sites? "nothing wrong with that", right?

hot promo :pimp

Hot promo, nice conversions.

Shitty header, if he gives you a % are you going to spend it on design?

I dont see a problem. That blog is mainly pushing your site. Just a few small links to other sites....and I highly doubt those ND sales cam from that blog.

I'm glad you feel that way, so then I'm sure you wouldn't "see a problem" with me adding links in our affiliate tours to other programs then, right? Last time I checked that was called a "traffic leak". It honestly don't get the double standard. Affiliates freak out and programs get slammed if tours have a single link to another sponsor or an alternate billing processor, etc. However it's perfectly ok for an affiliate to use a sponsors branded name for their domain and the sponsors content to send traffic from that site (the sponsors branded domain and the sponsors content) to an unrelated sponsor. The mentality of some people in this industry never ceases to amaze me.

No such thing as an affiliate traffic leak, choose your weapon man.

Not that this thread has anything to do with the "quality" of the header design but please feel free to hit me up with your design critique when you've built a site that consistently generates 7 figures in annual revenue year after year after year.

Congratulations, SAC and $100 promo at Nasty Dollars.

Now your taking it out of context

Ie the affiliate sends you a sale therefore hes entiled to a % of your members area upsells, from the sales he sends you.

Wow, didn't expect this thread to turn out like this...Jake contacting you now on ICQ...

i was never able to make sales on promo days :(

sorry i have to say that i dont see a problem with the scenario you posted. You always have a choice to discontinue the affiliate if you have a problem with it. Plain fact is you and the affiliate are in it to make money, if you don't feel it makes you more money or morally object to something , don't allow it, otherwise its a rather moot point.

example
i am affiliate , i make 10 "tribute" blogs etc like one posted make x sales per day make $x per day total all ads are for sponsor

i then add some other sponsor ads and make $x + extra , i can now afford to buy extra traffic, promote my sites, thus increasing my sales to you.

do you want x sales per day or x sales * 2 ?

7 figures or not, that header sucks balls. Ask around. If you have an exclusive clause in your terms so be it. If not.. .

looks like he sends you sales....anyway nasty dollars rules

Smokey there are a couple of issues here.

1. I don't have a problem with an affiliate picking up some extra cash and having links to other sponsors in association with our content, it's pretty much industry standard anyway. However when priority placement is given to those other sponsors on a page that features our content and is on a domain using our branded name that's where I have a problem. The first thing a surfer sees when they hit http://www.naughtyjulieblog.com/ is three prominent links to another sponsor at the very top of the page.

2. Take "naughtyjulie" out of the domain name, remove any text on the page that reference "naughtyJulie", and remove her content from the page and this affililate has no traffic coming to this page, period. Thus no ability to siphon traffic off to another sponsor.

3. Back to the double standard I mentioned earlier. It's ok for the affiliate to pick up some extra cash by adding links to other sponsors on a page that only has traffic because of my content and my branding efforts, right? I'd like to pick up some extra cash too, I can't imagine how much revenue we could add annually if I were to use a couple of sponsor links on our tours but that's not acceptable now is it? "What's good for the goose is good for the gander!" No?


Again we're not talking about a generic blog here, we're talking about a blog that only has traffic because our our content and our branding efforts, period!

Traffic does not come from content or branding. If it did you wouldn't need affils.

So using "naughtyjulie" in the domain name and keyword loading the page with "naughtyjulie" has nothing to do with capitalizing on our content or branding to generate traffic to that page? And that page would continue to get the traffic it's getting if all reference to "naughtyjulie" and her content were removed? Are you really taking that position?

Aside from making a split second decision on where to host the screenshot (which obviously backfired) I feel as though I've done nothing wrong. I'd estimate that 95% of the clicks the Naughty Julie site generates are sent to her site...

That site has been on the front page of Google for years for all Naughty Julie keywords and phrases and only generates a handful of signups a year. I can almost certainly assure you it hasn't generated any Nasty Dollars sales.

Yes the site has 3 header links (that I change every once and a while), a cam section in the sidebar and small dating ad on the single posts. Other than that the complete blog is dedicated to promoting Naughty Julie and sometimes Allie. If you have a serious problem and plan on dropping me from your program I understand.

Lastly I have been nothing but a good affiliate, hell I've even contacted you numerous times concerning full scene Naughty Allie and Julie videos all over the tubes. Sent you urls, information, etc. I've emailed you and tried to contact you today via icq to no avail.

Please contact me...and check the links below before you continue to bash me please.

There are plenty more too...

I'd tell you to sue me, and pull your links.

Your heavy handed approach is not going to win you any fans in the affiliate community. :2 cents:

My approach?

Now protecting your intellectual property is considered "heavy-handed"? BTW, in case you haven't noticed there are a growing number of sponsor program asserting the rights to domain names containing their branded intellectual propety, and rightfully so. That being said I have not stated that it is my intent to do the same with www.naughtyjulieblog.com so I'm not really sure exactly what it is that you consider to be "heavy-handed" here?

Jake I am on ICQ to discuss this problem...

SAC: No, Jake: No offense. I have no stake in this.

Hoping you both do well. Opinions are like assholes.. .

Issue resolved and for the record SAC has always been an honest/reliable NaughtyBank affiliate. I think this situation reflects a bigger picture issue that is still being sorted out industry-wide.

Everythings all good Jake! Now you just need to get me in a room with Naughty Allie for about hour :banana

:thumbsup
