no webmaster affiliate program on your membership website?

and on your join page, why not get rid of the bottom clothes pin pic, so the "join'" text can be centered ?

and, at the bottom of your "join" paragraphs text, why not have another join button because your "Extreme BDSM Videos" is not clickable? (i think it should be)

just my midnight thoughts

You made great points Bill, what about an affiliate program FilmLatex........

[FilmLatex]

In the process of getting a new cms/layout integrated on all sites, so its all a bit left behind.

Do you want affiliates?

Why?

[FilmLatex]

Well affiliates are great - but basically all affiliates making sales are "manually added" with a specific reason to be there - that being review sites, tube content partners, niche specific sites etc.

Hunting for affiliates in general doesnt seem to have much benefit these days, it was different back when gallery submitters, real bloggers etc played a role - but these days randomly incoming affiliates largely never manage any noticeable results whilst occasionally insisting on wasting time in the process or doing awkward things with the content ... so its a qualified "not looking for affiliates" but in general it applies.

Why?

I disagree with your analysis filmlatex. The affiliate model is absolutely a god send for sites. Think this thru before answering, affiliates send free traffic to a site hoping to make a sale get a percentage of the sale amount. The site pays zilch for the traffic. The site gets free traffic there by increasing it's value and alexa rank. The site gets exposure. The site makes money and pays the affiliate a share, how is that a bad thing for the site.

[FilmLatex]

It isnt. Its a good thing in general and we have plenty of productive affiliates.

However, hunting around for new affiliates is basically a waste of time unless for a targeted purpose as those you get signed up next to never send anything and/or disproportionally need excessive time spent on them, simply a poor time/reward ratio. So, happily signing up new tubes, review sites or others with promising plans - whilst ignoring "catch-all" campaigns...

in the day of the tgp it was a no brainer, yes it's another business model today but affiliate sales are a bonus even if you are making your own in house sales. Do not give up on the affiliate sales angle, my 1 cent.

Agreed and we do happily take affiliates.
We simply dont throw out a wide net to sign up as many as possible like in the old days where every affiliate could provide traffic/sales. Instead we put effort into fewer affiliates with some kind of solid plan/setup
