I dont understand why they are closing their doors and not changing their business model, some of them have been around since before i started in the industry and simply modifying their business model rather than shutting down completely would seem to be the better option for both the program and their affiliates.
Every single program that has closed in the last 6 months has one thing in common, shady billing practices and paying on a per sale basis.
It really would seem like revshare is going to be the way the industry moves forward when it comes to new affiliate programs and i must say, im liking this a lot, we've been over promising and under-delivering as an industry for years, there is no long term sustainable growth for a program paying out $40+ on a $2.95 trial, a few of us have been saying this for a long time and nobody paid any attention to the writing on the wall, maybe now that the proof of this is being seen in far reaching messages industry wide those program owners who still operate on a PPS business model will start to change and adapt those models for the better of everyone, the industry, the surfer and, their affiliates.
