I hate trials with revshare. The payout on the trial sale isn't worth the bother, and in my experience only about 1 in 8 convert to full month at end of trial.

Yea...another detractor of trials with rev share here.
There's one particular fairly popular sponsor I've been sending minor amounts of traffic to for quite some time. Out of the few dozen sales...not a single one converted from trial. So, a few dozen sales...and the account still hasn't reached the minimum payout level. Not a sponsor I'll build anything new for to say the least. |

Well you know boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like women. You just have to read the manual and press the right button

Mr. Yum... How do ya think that reacts on our bottom line? Obviously offering trials effects everyone's revenue income any way I look at it. I feel that content is key here and when the consumer comes into a paysite tour, likes the content, and he/she is considering purchasing, I doubt that the price at that point is a real issue. If they're interested, and are ready to pull out their credit card, I don't believe that spending $3.99 on a "tricky" 2 day trial vs $29.95 for 30 days matters. In fact, I believe that the trial pushes them to cancel their membership right away to avoid additional charges. Other programs don't like to trade exit traffic with us either because we don't offer trials. I wish the industry would just drop trials...they're a pain!

 Frankly, I only been in a few paysites over the years that I thought were worth the price of admission. Not surprisingly, if memory serves correctly...I think all of them were monthly joins only. The cookie cutter el cheapo sites almost invariably don't have anything worthwhile inside to keep the surfer recurring. Being the slut I am...I've still promoted those sites, but I think those days are fast coming to a close for me. |

Kids are great, Appu. You can teach them to hate the things you hate and they practically raise themselves now-a-days, you know, with the internet and all

With the introduction of 8mb, 12mb and faster connections becoming the norm a lot of trials will need to be limited access I am sure.

I agree with the no-trials for rev-shares. I like if you decide to have the option of trials, make sure you also offer a no-trial link codes.
