Why sites like Sleep Assualt are a bad idea

[Quagmire]

The question I have to ask of the more experienced webmasters who have been around for a while is this; do you avoid the sponsor with a site like that completely or just choose not to promote that specific site?

Sometimes you have to avoid the whole sponsor because sometimes it can be difficult to avoid promoting one of their sites even though you don't care to.

For example: It is very common for sponsors to post all of their sites on their join page for each site. Also in their consoles and other promotional materials may have references and or links advertising the specific site you did not want to promote.

In a case like that you would have to skip the whole sponsor.

If none of the above issues are a problem then I see no reason why you would skip a whole sponsor because they have one site that you do not want to promote. (as long as it is legal)

That's a question that has lead to much debate with no clear winner. You have to make your own choices on that one. Sites like this are created because many webmasters will promote them like crazy.

Personally I don't promote any sponsor that pretends to be taking advantage of women in any way. That includes sites where they pretend to trick the girl, get her drunk, offer her money or rape her in her sleep.

That being said, I have many close freinds that do support these types of sites and I don't give any thought to them doing it. I just make my own choices.

I would always do business with John. If you don't like a site, don't promote it.
