I wish someone would hire me as an affiliate manager – I would do an amazing job IMO b/c I love helping people and I am online alot, not to mention I know poker and poker affiliating inside out.
Dom…I know ppl aren’t going to stop promoting a site that is making them money….that would be silly of them. What I’m thinking is that they will also promote site X, who has the affiliates best interests in mind, so by promoting site X the affiliate will benefit too.
I think money talks…and if the poker sites, see how much traffic we really send to them, they may re-evalute our relationship and stop taking us for granted and make the terms fair.
IE pay us for tournament fees. Would you promote a casino if they gave you 30% of their profits from all games except blackjack? Tournaments are the main reason for poker’s popularity right now.
Yes there are a number of excellent AMs who work with us and reply immediately and deal with our concerns (you know who you are), but often times our concerns go unanswered, and the longer we let it go the worse it will become.
