No offense to you, but I found quite a bit of that to be offensive, short sighted, and narrow minded, Mr. S.
Maybe 1 out of 1,000 players will stay active with an online casino for more than 1 year.
Sounds a bit low, IMO, but in unlikely event that figure is correct, it demonstates just HOW much work goes into finding and retaining good players.
As such, those efforts need to be compensated according to the terms agreed to.
It doesn’t matter how Big of an Affiliate you are, we work on a Value for Value pay system, so the amount you get is supposed to be commensurate with whatever the results are, regardless of whether you have 1 Player or 1000 players.
If you cannot bring 1 player in 3 months, for whatever reason, keep your day job. You are obviously doing “this online gambling thing” as a hobby.
Most people I know started off small, and built up. Not many had the luxury of jumping into this FULL Time.
I started small, Lou did, Dom did, The Captain did, and I can name tons of other that did too.
Many of them in fact did, and still do have day jobs while they work very hard to grow their sites.
Many of those guys that started out part time and small are significant webmasters today, so that process works QUITE WELL.
I personally don’t care much about “newbies”. Again, for some of us this is a business, not a hobby.
The strength and future of the Affiliate Industry depends on those Newbies you don’t like.
Many of them become significant as I mentioned above.
Bringing Newbies along has long been the strength of Affiliate Communities just like this one.
It’s a great service to all of the Casino Programs, IMO.
This would be great as it will weed out some of the jokers
It may make competition a little more intense between big affiliates
Wow. All pretty offensive comments to many of us out here, but I’ll respect your right to make them.
