Does VideoSecret.com offer LifeTime RevShare?
 
Does VideoSecret.com offer LifeTime RevShare?

If I were to retire tomorrow and close down my sites. Should I still be paid for the customers that still spend money on their netowrk?


Or are there conditions...

Other than the big "EARN UP TO 35% ON ALL TIME PURCHASES" on their main page, I assume there's more details here:

Yeah...I have my lawyer on a retainer like all webmaster to give it a once over.


So, in your opinion(minus a lawyer) is it lifetime or not?

Is this an attempt to cleverly get someone else to link to a hot topic on a different board without straight-up looking like an ass by linking to it yourself? |huh

Well this board is more biz than drama....that is why I wanted to open up a business discussion.


You can relace "Video Secrets" with any other live cam sponsors.

The question still remains the same...


Does "insert your cam sponsor" offer LifeTime RevShare?


If you decided to get out of the adult biz for personal reasons, should you still get paid?

Just like my dating sponsors know when they see a drop in traffic.

They usually contact you as the reason why your traffic has dropped.

Of course you should.

I like Jeff at VS, I didn't like their companies response.

That being said, I think it's absurd to think that any large entity wouldn't screw a non-active affiliate out of their commission if they believed there would be little or no repercussions. Again, I'm not saying it's right, but that's how it is.

Will I pull my few VS ads, dunno...I want to see how this plays out when tempers start to settle down because like I said earlier I like Jeff. :(

Greenguy 2008-06-12 09:15 PM

Preacher - please explain to me the pile of shit my friend Senator_x has lit on my doorstep.

I also think cooler heads will prevail.

Just makes me think after 10 years of being an adult web developer, lifetime recur means just that, not a few years.

I remember back in the day Pornication used to make me a lot of money until they went under and I lost a big chunk of my revenue.

Lynx was initially developed in 1992 - I myself have been around longer, but it beat me online by 4 years.

And yes, of course I expect to be paid for a recurring membership.

My problem is that I don't know why this topic was brought up here on the board. And you can say "stop playing like you don't know anything" all you want, but I don't get out much & rarely read other boards.

I'll wait for Preacher to wake up & go from there, because there's obviously an issue that involved him & annoyed you to the point where you had to start your 2nd thread this year.

SirMoby 2008-06-13 07:30 AM

I don't send them a lot of traffic but I can see from my stats that I have users that have been buying for 3 years now. That makes them reliable in my book.

Nah, it doesn't involve me I just have some of their links up and like one of their VPs. I'll shoot you a PM. :)

Preacher 2008-06-13 12:17 PM

I just got caught up on that other thread...

Bullshit, you posted this just to get either a link over there or to troll for support of VS.

There are also people emailing webmasters about this VS thread in question which makes me think that's what you are trying to do with your post on this board.

I just got an email sending me here in this thread.....

I'll be sending this to 650 webmaster emails today also. Sure it's small but every bit helps.
So like I said in my first reply, this is just a very unclever way to try to get people to check out the other thread on the other board.

You should have just started a thread openly stating that VS had quit paying a webmaster after he lost contact with them and once he re-established contact they had cancelled his account for lack of activity.

Then we could have given you our opinions on the matter without feeling jerked around by a leading question on a subject most didn't know anything about in the first place.

Someone likes to feel important because they know something others may not :)

Sorry, I feel real stupid now. I thought I couldn't link to other forums.


Seems like VS harden up their position and will not payout.

Also, I don't think they are offering lifetime anymore. Going over their TOS it basically says they can pull your account at any time(you should get a lawyer to translated for you).

Just hate seeing a webmaster being screwed in this way.

Greenguy 2008-06-14 12:00 PM

Thanks for fighting the good fight for all of us |thumb

NY Jester 2008-06-14 12:38 PM

I think alot of programs have that in there somewhere that they can end your account for any number of reasons..all be it mostly would be violation of TOS.

Trixie 2008-06-18 03:46 PM

Glad I read the thread yesterday; the whole thing is gone now from GFY.

They will ban people for bringing it up there now..

Thats some fascist bullshit.

Fuck GFY, I'm tired of that place.

This isn't the first time censorship happened to protect a "bro"

no matter how unethical

u-Bob 2008-06-18 06:14 PM

www.shavebucks.com still has parts of the original thread.

tickler 2008-06-18 07:15 PM

Well I was waiting to see if things could be resolved someway.|huh

As for the zoo deleting the thread!|fuckyou|

I pretty much had forgotten about Brad Estes from AC.|asshole|
only the "top" webmasters get to keep their recurrings
But in the spirit of SNL Bu-By!|2up

I guess I'm going to have to contact about 200+ programs now, and figure out which ones have a true lifetime recurring. I wouldn't want to waste time and money building a recurring income for retirement, only to have some asshat kill it off because I retired, and stopped sending traffic.|club|

Cooler heads have prevailed.
