This describes the problem with so many affiliates imho.

They sign up for a gazillion programs, CCbill progs especially for so called convenience, then throw tiny bits of traffic spread out over tons of sites so they never really figure out what is working or not. They just hope to find a site that "sells like it is 1997" and pray that will solve all the problems.

They don't take the time to actually study the market, do some due diligence on the sponsor, or statistically analyze the traffic in any meaningful manner. Then they want to blame the sponsors, blame the tubes, blame everything... but themselves.
