Longest running program?

CelticTiger · 2006-01-17, 06:26 AM

Just curious - which is the longest running adult affiliate program thats still around today? Nothing like a little bit of useless trivia

Papa · 2006-01-17, 06:42 AM

Gamma for sure
Xpics (nahhh just dreaming hehehehe)

Toby · 2006-01-17, 06:43 AM

Gunsmoke?

ladydesigner · 2006-01-17, 06:46 AM

Maybe Max Cash?

Ms Naughty · 2006-01-17, 06:57 AM

Pick me! Pick me! LOL. I wish.

Both Gamma and Maxcash started in 1996. Cybererotica has a counter dating from July 1996.

Huh? I seem to remember MaxCash being one of the first sponsors I signed up for when I started in this biz waaaaay back in 97'. I'm sure there's other programs that might be older and still active but MaxCash is what came to mind.

CE is several years older and it's not the oldest that comes to my mind

CE is the correct answer

There has always been an argument about who was first, CE or another program that I can't remember. But the other program has not been mentioned yet. I remember the day CE opened and I just jumped up and said "WoooHooo". Before CE, I sold all my advertising for $1500/month to a site called "Hotshots". But "Hotshots" had no program.

Jim · 2006-01-17, 08:25 AM

And, those were different times. For example, and I know I have said this before but the first CE program would take the amount of traffic you sent the first week of the month and multiply that amount by 4.3 and pay you for the entire month in advance.

Jim · 2006-01-17, 08:26 AM

MaxCash was not MaxCash back then. They were around but were selling phone sex numbers.

Greenguy · 2006-01-17, 08:28 AM

I remember Hot Shots - they traded me a un/pw for a banner on my site - LOL

Max Cash is my oldest still running program, but XPics was the 1st I signed up for.

Jim · 2006-01-17, 08:28 AM

Karl from Gamma was a YNOT member when I was and he had no program running.

mpahlca · 2006-01-17, 12:27 PM

Yeah i remember Cyberotica from way back, they seem to be the oldest I can think of that are still around.

Fonz · 2006-01-17, 12:31 PM

I remember that non-US webmasters weren't accepted by these programs back then, bastards

One could infer that if one chose too

Papa · 2006-01-18, 08:32 AM

If i recall, Karl was making over 70$k per month in his basement when he started !!!!!!
Shit i can't recall the domains
Allteens and Webmature i think.

Stie de vieux cochon hehehehehehe

Jan Barnes · 2006-01-18, 10:12 AM

What happened to the Xpics guys anyway? They were paying like there was no tomorrow, and suddenly there was none. The program disappeared, and I never heard what actually happened. Xpics should be included in any book covering the early & happy wild west days of the internet.

Jan Barnes · 2006-01-18, 10:19 AM

Ahh, to answer my own question, this is a great article from 1998 on the downfall of Xpics. A great read if you ask me.

XXXcash also claims to have started in 1996, so I guess that is the year quite a few sites got started. Try to find a site that started in 1995, and we should have a winner.
