Often its old news that the seasoned vets already know; and have discussed to full extent the situation
Often the old news are changed. Nothing is set in stone. You saw me being very unhappy with Referback a couple of years ago – I praise them today.
You saw me defend Focal for a long time, then I became disenchanted. Now I am picking them back up because I figured out why performance had fallen off so much. My visitor profile had changed – with the changes I implemented to counter the PPC mess, I ended up with over 50% repeat visitors and I can’t have the same casinos in the same spots all the time anymore. I shuffled things around and – voila – things are working again.
I am always ready to review and reconsider – programs change, nothing in this business is ever static (which is one reason I like it I think. Even the mess with the ppc’s – it made us have to rethink and regroup and it keeps things fresh and interesting. But I digress).
I see no reason we cannot share that sort of thing in public where everyone can see it. We discussed Casino Rewards in public and it wasn’t all friendly. We discussed Casino Pays and it wasn’t all friendly. These are just the recent ones.
If the problem with the program is so old that no one new has heard about it, it is time to reevaluate.
Your comment about powerbet are a perfect example – I too seem to remember bad things about them – but we are not sure anymore, are we? They may have new owners or they may have changed the entire affiliate structure or whatnot – they need to be reviewed.
Giving private advice is done every day of the week here – by me too, and it is good and commendable. I just disagree with snatching novices who are doing open and apparently good business with a CAP program from that forum and telling them old, non reevaluated and very subjective things about that program. People should be able to do business unfettered. If it is not fit to be mentioned publicly, it probably needs to be reevaluated and needs additional input.
CAP’s job is NOT to be the police of the OG niche
Of course not. Nor is it that of any individual. But CAP has a lot of experience and is pretty well able to tell the wheat from the chaff. And, communally and openly discussed, CAP members can keep these evaluations current and fresh.
