The second email they sent out was even better!
Hello again, just a follow note to clear up a few points that were brought to our attention:
Our goal is to have affiliates advertise our content, but not to have the affiliates "over promote."
We do wish for you to advertise as our fhg's in as many different locations as you desire. That is not a problem.
We only wish that our entire collection of fhg's and galleries don't all wind up in one location. Over promotion and release of too much free content in one location is what we are trying to control.
That is why we have the 4 fhg limitation per affiliate website location. (not per affiliate)
One problem might be this: If you have already submitted "10" fhg links to "XXX.com" and "XXX.com" has posted all your links, (thus creating a situation we do not want) instead of deleting links and causing loss of traffic, simply redirect your link urls to other fhg's or locations. The key is redirection, not deletion. Some webmasters don't allow this, but for old archived urls, most really won't care, as long as the surfer is redirected to a similar fhg.
This works in your best interest as well, because if XXX.com has posted 10 of your gallery links, you will be less likely to make a sale due to over promotion.
We believe over promotion and saturation of free content is the main problem today online. We are only trying to control the flow of our free content so you can continue making sales with us.
This does not apply to all our affiliates, as most of you are advertising properly. This will change only the small population of growing affiliates that are over promoting. We do not wish to see our sites die and your sales disappear due to mismanagement of free content.
We believe this will be a trend in the future for many sites trying to survive in this market place of literally free content.
Please review your fhg usage and please reduce or redirect by July 31st, 2010.
We believe the new trend online will be the "tease" factor and not the "over promote" factor.
Also, check back in 24 hours, as we will be spicing up our fhg's with better tease pics. We've been increasing our sales with "cover up" pics as seen already in a few of our fhg's online now.
Teasing and limiting free content is the trend to induce more sales in this buyer's market place.
Thank you for reading, your thoughts are always welcome.
