what will turn my head is good old fashioned straight honest treatment in all aspects of the partnership. That includes honoring and not changing any agreements already done.
Aside from the all-mighty bottom line at the end of the month; the one other thing that turns my head is the casino that has excellent player retention.
That also is huge.
Most of this other stuff is just basically trim if you ask me.
the tier thing is usually beyond my current status in this niche. And I’d guess that is true for the majority of people reading this.
Even if I climb – I’m usually not going to see but at best a 5% difference in income. That is just not enough to warrant any special decisions or action on my part. (see, its not the 5% that upsets me, but rather that you are changing the terms of an agreement already agreed upon, and that is quite unacceptable)
So I don’t see where changing tiers around is going to make a lot of difference.
Remember 0 x anything is still 0. Meaning, that if you want more exposure on my sites, get the casinos to work on getting the players to gamble more, better long-term retention and perhaps try to increase conversion rates.
I’m always amazed at the contests and stuff programs will run.
How many people out there have ever changed their site around because of some contest going on?
In my mind, all the contests are going to go to the big affiliates, or at least the lions share of the prizes.
But that’s okay with me anyway, I don’t expect, or ask for anything that I haven’t earned.
But I do ask and expect to get the income I have earned.
if they want to increase traffic from us, how about a bounty on each new signed player?
I’m certain that would be more cost-effective to the casinos than would paying an extra 5 or 10 percent on the lifetime of the account.
And speaking for myself, that is the kind of incentive that I WILL change my site around for.
Its a little something extra that I wouldn’t be getting elsewhere; while still allowing me to to achieve my ultimate goal, which is to get players signed up and gambling at some place that I am making a commission on the life of their account.
hope that helps.
