I think it’s way too high too, unless of course ROI warrants the fee.
Would be nice if a fee could go by ROI, but I don’t see how that can be done because almost no one uses the banners to click through to a program.
I do notice new banners, but they make me go to the program’s forum here and read about it, and then I tend to paste the program name into my browser.
I bet a lot of people do it that way. Others sign up under each other in second tiers.
Other times I see a forum with new content (post your specials, guys!) and again paste the address in my browser and go. It’s just a habit, picking up URLs in forums by pasting, got to be that way because a lot of URLs in posts are given with xx in front. So one ends up streamling how one moves about the web, makes it faster overall.
That is rather frustrating to both the forum and the operators I bet, that actual ROI can’t be determined.
