Re: Purchasing ads for flat rates?

Similarly I wonder if, as webmasters, you would feel you were receiving full value for the banner link if you were only being paid the flat rate regardless of how well or poor the traffic you send converts.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
flat rate works best for me too...
