There we go... the truth lies within. This is all about PPC costs which is what everyone's been saying all along. Here's an idea - instead of fucking over the affiliates who are probably competing amongst themselves for those same words, why not stay out of the PPC market on Google altogether? You seriously think you'll do better than those affiliates who've been pushing you since day 1 and honing their keywords to drive the best traffic that converts?
Actually scratch that...I guess it sucks that you'll also have all the referrer URLs from Google in the logs, so you'll know EXACTLY which terms to bid on. Talk about playing dirty. Thank god I don't promote you - would of been a glorious waste of my time. I feel bad for those who already do.
