Paul, you make some valid points and I think that’s exactly why so many of us are pissed off with Ladbrokes. They have here what could be a BRILLIANT program – especially for successful UK affiliates.
They have a great, well-known brand that many of us would like to promote. What we’re equally annoyed about is the lack of foresight here – and it’s a massively wasted opportunity to get some great exposure from affiliates. By taking the quick buck and operating an affiliate program that DOES rip off affiliates – and that’s exactly what they’ve decided to do – they’ve blown a great chance.
We’re just amazed and repulsed that what could be a superb opportunity for them (and us) has been ruined by stupid thinking.
