Are Ad Networks going to kill the Affiliate Model?

The problem for the affiliate is if you are profitable with your ad campaign some sponsors will just cut you out. Then you become a free market researcher for the sponsor. Being an affiliate with many programs isn't near the deal it was once was. I believe affiliates try to sell (quality) traffic to brokers because they want guaranteed income and they are distrustful of their sponsors. Don't forget all the tracking issues too. Affiliates want to be paid for ALL of their traffic.

I Use Pretty Much Only JuicyAds On All My Sites Instead Of Gambling With Shitty Conversion Ratios That You Hope Are Correct And Not Getting Bent Over On Sales From Affiliates.

I'll Take The Guaranteed Income Thanks. Have You Seen Some Of The Prices These Top Sites Are Getting? $2,000+ For 1 Ad Spot For 1 Month.

My Sites Are No Where Those Numbers Though. Wishful Thinking.

I have yet to see adult ad networks that work and do not cheat. Most programs I tried shave traffic by wide margins and payouts are very little. Google's Adsense was great while they accepted dating and escort sites. 10 to 20 bucks per click were possible 4 or 5 years ago, but it's history, unfortunately.

There's quite a number of sites that get $30-$50,000 for 1 ad spot.
