Revshare with Trials

Special "Ed" · 2006-03-09, 10:21 AM

LotzaDollars is considering trials again. I personally have never really had any luck with them. They always seem to attrack the surfer that only wants to join for 2 days anyways, rip your content, and leave to only come back in six months and do the same thing again. When you have a member following for a site like Lori's My-Sex-Life.com... Surfers now understand that if you begin to offer a trial they only have to join for a couple of days at a discounted rate, and then come back a couple months later to see the new content, thus avoiding the rebills altogher. We've had this happen to use several times over the years where we would lose membership base because of trials.

Do you think if we offered revshare on trials that we would attrack more affiliates pushing our program? Do we HAVE TO offer PPS on trials to peak affiliates interest? Are affiliates actually expecting a large number of trials converting? Enivitably creating a larger % of the revshare sign up?

We are actually considering setting up second tours for all our paysites where we offer trials so affiliates that would like to offer our sites with trials can use these tours instead. Any opinions are greatly appreciated.
