Aw, Dad, you've done a lot of great things, but you're a very old man, and old people are useless

Thats not exactly true.

I am NOT saying that boobster did this but I am giving you examples of how the affiliate can, to some degree, control how well their signup does once they are in the site. It all comes down to what did you do to get them to signup.

I know many people who link to the signup page with out explaining anything and the person signing up thinks they are signing up to the site they are on and doesn't even know what ifriends is. If i own sex.com and i show a image of a girl and link to signup page with no info on it, people might think they are signing up to sex.com not ifriends.

They have had people say signup and i will send you $10 paypal. etc...

There are lots of ways to lure people in without representing the site well and then those people who signed up wasn't expecting what they see and leave.

Clickcash is also differnet then most sites because most people make their own promos and advertisements when they use clickcash. Unlike other affiliate programs where you use the stuff they provide. So if that doesn't work, they have no one to blame but themselves. With clickcash they give us freedom to advertise them, so naturally problems like this will occur.
