Man did you ever pick the wrong month to pop-up. You'll have to excuse my tone, I'm normally not so confrontational, but see my income has been affected so I'm a tad on edge.

We post a lot over at "that other big board" (and you can't imagine the headaches that come from some of the people on there, lol). I will try to be around here more often to answer people's questions here also should they come up.
We are also always reachable by email, icq, or by calling our office. Full contact info can be found at http://www.toomuchmedia.com/corporate/contact.html |
So I'm assuming being as you have posted here you don't mind explaining to someone like me -- a vanilla flavored affiliate -- exactly how things work then. See, I'm really confused by all these fancy stats and whatchamacallits, because I thought having features for me the affiliate would equate to me making more money, but turns out -- silly me -- I was wrong.
Can you please explain to me why when I'm sending the same traffic to the same sponsor from the same sources conversions suddenly nosedive when your cascade has been installed? Now I'm not one who "would rather curse, scream, complain, and insult on message boards..." without some proof for the pudding.

"As far as the benefits of cascading I typically see
gains of 10% to 20% on our clients." No shit?
What kinds of losses do the affiliates for those sponsors see? Now where would the extra income come from if they are paying you for the cascade? See I'm just an affiliate so maybe I'm missing something, I would think that might increase their expenses rather then raising their income.
You'll obviously know what sponsor I'm talking about, feel free to mention my issue to Arthur, he's already heard about it though.
