2 years and still no money

Starting a webmaster program should be one of the last things you do, right now. I don't mean to be rude here, but time and time again webmasters complain about sites not converting and their traffic being wasted, yet they encourage people with no, or little, track record to do just that, as in this thread. Starting a affiliate program is a good idea, but only after you have a site that converts and retains it's members at a good amount. It could hurt if the site is not converting well, which is unknown as there is probably not enough coming to the site right now to get good numbers. It could hurt because the site would not convert and every one would know and pass it on, reputation gone. Game over.

As for traffic, the only traffic I see you trying to get is with toplists. Toplists can be great returns, but you have to have some traffic to send to get up in the lists in the first place. And with so many listed, the traffic that is going to the friends page will be so spread out so thin, you'd have to have a lot of traffic to even show up on any of the lists.

Maybe it's just me, but in most of the pictures you don't look like your very thrilled about doing what your doing.

And, as mentioned, why don't you have a recurring or on going monthly price? Sure can't build up a following or on-going income with one time charges.
