Most of the newsletters I get focus on the latest galleries. They rarely ever use the time and energy to tell us of changes that are being made. WE know there are websites that are not cutting it and are shutting down, especially in this economy. WE know you need to find other ways to make money. Don't you think we do the same thing with our own empires?
At times like this, the ethical companies are going to come out on top. Sure, get rid of the sites that don't work for you -- JUST TELL US IN ADVANCE!! Go ahead, sell space on exit consoles. Glad you were honest enough to ask in public for advertisers. I have always been no console, and do a blend of revshare and PPS. I love having sponsors that offer the choices. Let ME choose how best to promote you. Let ME choose between consoles or not, revshare or PPS, cross sales or not.
What I ask of you is to treat us with respect - communicate not just galleries but program changes. Keep your sites fresh and highly desireable for the visitors, and don't resort to tricks on anyone. It might bring you a momentary quick buck, but those visitors you tricked are not going to renew or ever visit one of your sites again. Then who wins?
