Actually I have been a SEO for 10 years and a webmaster for 7 but only been promoting webcams for the last 3-4 years but yeah, BELIEVE ME, I get your point. I just logged into my AWE stats panel last night and looked back at all the WHALES I sent them that I no longer get anyhting from and it made me sick to my stomach. No ones understands your point more than me - trust me on that one.
I guess my point was that I would rather have 2 weeks of comissions than zero which is what I got with the other sponsors I tried but maybe I did not give the other guys enough of a chance however I routinely see people posting that thier average sales ratio with the other cam sites is over 1:1,000 or worse which is simply unacceptable. Like I said before on average I make a sale every 50-100 uniques I send them although it varies however I have never reached 1,000 or even 500 uniques sent without a sale so...

Someone who signed up 5 years ago and only does a few sessions a year could have still netted you a couple of hundred bucks over that time.
Like I said earlier, AWE could have made it even better by reassigning the original referring affiliate to the account, but of course they're not going to do that. Lifetime revshare going forward is going to be a big enough hit to the bottom line.  |
