Affiliate programs which return your surfer--have they all gone away now?

Those are very few and far between. Think it's come down to getting what they can out of the surfer. They lose a chance sending the surfer back.

Just my 2 cents.

Yep, that's true. I can find plenty of programs which maximize surfer value by doing it that way.

But I'm looking at this from the other side. I'd like to give the affiliate the surfer back when I'm done if I can't convince them to join our site. I don't want to beat them up first. I just want to have them see our no-popup tour and then, if they don't signup, pass them back to the affiliate (or on to wherever they'd like).

I'm a believer that the surfer is only on loan to me, so I want to return him when I'm done (if I can).

Still hoping to hear from anyone who can offer some guidance on this.
