When it comes to sponsor programs, it seems like more and more of them are raising payouts for affiliates to attract a larger affiliate base as of late however, despite being paid more by these affiliate programs, the individuals signing up and promoting the sites these sponsors offer seem to constantly bitch about these programs using upsells inside the members areas and cross sells on the join form.
Now i think we pretty much all understand that in order for an affiliate program to continue offering raised/higher payouts, that program needs to make money so, why then, if a sponsor is offering $50 for a $2 trial, do affiliates constantly bitch and moan about upsells and cross sells?
Surely if affiliates cared so much about these practices they wouldnt be promoting the big PPS sponsor programs that were offering $50+ for a trial.
That being said, what do you think is a 'fair' payout in terms of what an affiliate should be paid for the sales they send to an affiliate programs paysite?
I mean there has to be a middle ground right, if a member joins for a $3 trial, how much do you think is fair for YOU to be paid for that join?
