When will advertisers and networks learn?

Just lower you're fucking payout instead of scrubbing! shit is beyond lame and makes it so much harder for affiliates to optimize there campaigns when they just randomly scrub at will.

yeh, shit is annoying. I never understood scrubbing or kicking an affiliate that is producing leads. Why not just lower payout and make it profitable for everyone.

You could always consider going with a network that creates its own products/offers instead of using the middle men.

You get the guaranteed highest payouts due to zero brokerage, and no need to shave with direct, exclusive offers.

Of course, that isnt ALWAYS the way it works with direct offers/networks but once you find the right fit.....you are guaranteed to be well taken care of. Plus-the offers don't die out, get shut off, or get capped nearly as often...if ever.

Because networks always blend. Generally you look at a network as a whole when optimizing.

Tell your shitty network to stop sending shit traffic with good traffic and it won't happen.

Cmon Will, you know better than that... No one will change when they are profiting from it. Plus a few networks out there are REALLY good at delivering a sick traffic mix that needs to be respected before scorned.

Krongel/Copeac is by far, the best and longest traffic mixer of all time. And I mean that as a total tip of the hat RESPEK and compliment too. I mean it, he's got that shit on lock and its doubtful anyone will ever figure out how to do it better.

However traffic mixing cannot be done correctly when dealing with offers requiring a credit card or payment information (although you can do it with payday leads if you're clever). But for all other CPL's and CPA's and DEFINITELY with CPC's and CPV's your arb skills, if you're really good at it, can go for fuckin years without being discredited.

Just sayin...
