My motto is this.

"If I am making money with an affiliate w/ traffic leaks, how much more could I make if they didn't have them.?"

One of the MAIN issues I have with traffic leaks is this -

When I first market a site it may have ZERO leaks. Then they decide to add a second processor. Ok. Then they launch a DVD store. OK. Then they link to a blog they just created. OK. Then they get 20 reviews somewhere and link to those. OK. Then they get a mail server and add a mailing list. OK.

Soon, it's a totally different tour than what I originally decided to create galleries for, free sites, AEN sites, put links all over the place, add FHG's to my tgp, write blog posts about. That's a lot of work, only to find that the tour I started to market has now turned into a mini hub just taking my traffic and not giving me credit.

My opinion - Do whatever you want with your traffic. Send it to your store. Send it to Porn Inspector. Send it to a myspace blog. But send my traffic to a join page I get credit for. It's just the fair thing to do.

If affiliates now don't say anything about traffic leaks, pretty soon every site will have links to blogs, dvd stores, and "friends". And of course the best leak of all a VOD theater.
