questions for AWEmpire
Since this board is the only one where I can shout for help and since there are so many webmasters around who might have a constructive idea, there are some questions arising....Are you still in this business??? Check this out, since July 1st untill today, September 11th, the revshare ratios shows ~29000 raws and ~15500 uniques with no fucking sign-ups whatsoever, the PPS ones I've got, for the same period of time, 1:6400... are you fucking nuts????? What the fuck is going on with you? are you shaving? is everything ok with your program? you're starting to piss me off big fucking time. Your explanations are required ASAP. I repeat, I need AWEmpires' explanations not the masturbators who're regular sponsors ass kissers.
FYI, every webcam teaser is within its niche. Also, most of the programs are with LiveJasmin, followed by CameraBoys and Joyourself. Thanks. PS: don't ask me about the ~ sign, just reffer to the matter.

Have you tried asking them directly, and not on a message board?

I did, obvious, here's the transcript of the answer:
"Thank you for your feedback. I have forwarded your remark, we are going to have a look at this matter. I hope your ratio will improve after changing the tool on your site. We would like to help you to get your sales grown back again. If you have any question feel free to contact us. Best regards, AWE staff" And that was it! On the other hand, I've preffered to ask them on this board 'cause I had a moment of madness, I agree, after seeing all those twisted-crazy numbers, I guess I was entitled to do that, I need some straight answers.

Yep, that's exactly what it is, their "cut and paste" reply. This wasn't the first shout for help, there were several spreaded over the time. On the other hand, I presume some other WM's might have a similar problem...

Hello,
First things first, gfy is not our support forum, so, just like the reply you quoted above says, 'if you have any questions feel free to contact us' via our official support ticket system. Regardless, please feel free to email me your affiliate id and i will forward it to our account managers.

yep, you're right, it did happen to other or my friends in the past, too and not necessarily in regards to AWE, don't get me wrong.
I think it's a wide spreaded "tactics" among both "sides", if I can name them like that... something like "left to forget". Regretfully I cannot stay any longer so I'll wait for the resolution, if any, when I'll get back...

Sorry to hear that... btw, what are you other options you're happy with? I might get a shot and try something else, too, why not? in fact, when both sides are happy with each other, that's business, if not... that's something else...

I am looking so forward for the answer, please either post it here or email it to me. There has to be some sort of closure I'd say.
Thanks

Now, that?s a surprise! Guess what? after I?ve bitched-out AWEmpire on the on-question ratios, I?ve finally got a sign-up!!! In the revshare area, in amount of $9? and not the regular $17.99 affiliate share option for the $29.99 value. Oh well, maybe they?ve changed the sign-up amounts for the affiliate payouts, don?t know.
Now my ratios are dramatically changed, from the 0(zero):15838(fifteenfuckingthousandeightfuckinghu ndredandthirtyfuckingfuckingeight), now I?ve got 1:15838!!! Still there are some questions arising: -Was this a random sign-up? A ?normal? one? If yes, why is it in amount of $9 and not the regular $17.99 for the $29.99 revshare sign-up? -Are there gonna be any reccuring payouts, too? -Was this a AWEmpire staff tryout to see if everything?s working? After the surfer?s nick it doesn?t seems like though but I don?t think it?s relevant. -IF (bold, underlined and caps) your tracking engine is fixed, are you going to leave it as is or do you plan to ?harm? it again? - are there anymore "non-existing", untracked sign-ups? If yes, please transfer the amounts in my epassporte account. - can anyone from AWEmpire guarantee that I?ll not have those unbelievable bad ratios again? -based on my knowledge, webcams still represent a viable source of income for this business. Do you think it's on a downhill trend? I hope the problems were fixed and I?ll not be forced to post any more threads on this board in regards to AWEmpire tracking/reffering/stats issues anymore. I'd say the time will tell, we'll see.

Seen several sponsors creep over 0:10k since July.
Looking at my 2 programs declines on CC's are through the roof .. seriously 500% higher and some guys trying up to 4-5 cards without being able to get one through. I personally am even having trouble with my 4 main cards, decline decline decline decline. The scrubbing atm is insane, maybe thats not the reason for your bad ratio but i am sure it contributes to it. |

AWE .. LoL over here.
With their Green Acres Mr. Haney sale tracking methods... It's pretty much you're a whale or go to hell, too I signed up when they offered a $100 bonus,, takes $100 net to clear it, I got to $170 .. was doing roughly 1:4000 Switched to PPS to clear it, went 1:20,000 then 1:30,000 Still sitting in my account to this day $170 and who knows how much in sales that didn't seem to happen that I'll never see The kicker is that I got this one guy to sign up and watched him do it.. and I know it wasn't counting my PPS sales. They told me oh it must have been because he already had someone elses cookie. Please |

Too many people are cookie stuffing livejasmin and the like. Since then, I've switched to a white label solution (webcams is making me money, however, videosecrets's whitelabel is more sophisticated). |

Yes, it could be a problem with the way AWE are tracking your sales, but it could also be a problem with the traffic you are sending them. No, it's not a downhill trend, I think cam sites still represent a good area of revenue as more and more surfers are looking to the idea of interactive porn. Keep with it and maybe just tweak what you're doing a little to improve your ratios. Remember, this business does change so what you were doing last year to get good ratios through cams isn't necessarily what you need to be doing now to get the same ratios. Trial and error my friend.

You say you came here for webmasters "constructive ideas" but then you say you only want awempire to answer. Make up your mind, you already got an answer from awempire. You came here to bitch about your shitty traffic.. If you want help you should start with a little more than "i got 29k raw and no signups", gee maybe switch sponsors ? maybe cams don't sell well for your traffic. Its impossible for anyone to give any advice based on raw unknown traffic numbers. I could send anyone 29k and get 0 signups if i do it wrong

W/o seeing their back end it sounds like this may be an error within their system when someone changes their comission type.
I know some affiliate software programs have at least two DB values that need to change when switching a comission structure. Sounds to me like when you guys are going from one payout structure to another it's turning your current payout off and not turning the new comission structure back on. |

This month ratio so far - 1:506
This month referral bonus - $ 786.81 So far. And this is a sucky month for my own performance! Normally ratios are ~1:250
