LOL @ Naked News Affiliate T.O.S

Quote:

Without the express written consent of eGalaxy Multimedia Inc, the Affiliate will do nothing that will actively seek or encourage Internet search engines to list the Affiliate (or anyone directly or indirectly related to the Affiliate) under the search words "naked news" "nakednews" "nakednews.com" "nakednewsdailymale.com" "nakednewsdailymale" "daily male" or "naked" [with or without spaces between the words] (hereinafter called the "Search Engine Terms") or under any other term which may be confusingly similar to the Search Engine Terms. This includes, but is not limited to, using meta tags, tag lines, keywords, bookmarks, gate way pages, door way pages, word embedding, and feeder sites.

So basically, you get a listing for the word 'naked' you wont get paid.

Given that we work in the ADULT industry, i think a lot of affiliates wont be getting be paid by these guys.

Oh well another sponsor to take off my list :(

I sense they're a little um .... control freaks? :)

Who dreams up this stuff?

Just bumping so everyone gets a chance to see this bit of insanity.

Like Playboy, anyone who has that much of their own traffic that affiliates are an afterthought.

Lee, stick with them for 5 minutes and send a few requests to affiliate support.

When I was sending them shit years ago I emailed them a few times, they had an autoresponder and NOTHING else.

:biker:

Coincidentally, I have been considering NakedNewsDailyMail. I sent them the following concern a couple of weeks ago. I never heard anything back. Sounds like it is not a good sponsor.

TOS says..."'Affiliate may use only content, pictures and videos supplied by us, including banners, videos and may employ TGP (Thumb Gallery Post) specifically approved by us in writing. Any use of unauthorized content is strictly prohibited.'

For a free gallery promoting your site, do you only permit picture content that you provide? Or can I provide my own licensed pics?"

That is incredibly stupid.
