The first thing is to check to be sure the sponsor url with your affiliate code is properly formated.

Some sponsors just have lousy banners. Or really bad tours that never get the surfer to make that second click (many sponsors only count the second click.).

If you are not getting performance from a sponsor, I'd try another relatively quickly. Unless a sponsor is known to you and a proven performer, it doesn't make sense to keep advertising a sponsor that isn't working out.

The flip side of that is that you've got to be willing to test out new sponsors, and a reasonable test means throwing at least a few thousand clicks to the sponsor, unless it's a deep niche sponsor and you really expect to make a signup per 100-200 clicks to the sponsor.
