Yeah noticed this too yesterday. All links on back up till further notice :D

whoooooooooooooooooooo???

"Query failed: Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'rc_affiliates' Actual query:"

Oh wonderful.

Let's hope the database isn't gone :)

I talked to ton of people at AVN / Internext about making RichCash a private program. Or any invite only program because out of the last 50 or so affiliate sign up only about 4 of them have been real affiliates. Most of them are just surfer looking for content or even worst we are finding a lot of people stealing out content and linking to other sites. Or people downloading my content to post on a tub site to sell other people.


So All the affiliate links still work.. ( americankittens.com/track/xxxx ) but richcash is down until I figure out what to do, I have never had a large affiliate base ( about 8% of sales and about 23% of my traffic is from affiliates) Affiliate will still be able to make money, but I want to make sure that I can keep high quality and not give away content as easily.


the old gallery are working


http://richcash.com/gallery/Videos-a...en-v004_flv_4/

but in the month I am going to moving them over to americankittens... but I will send an email out about a week before i do any changes like that.

Roald - the freeones ( imo) you guys are great. Once things get cleaned up i will re-submit a new batch of galleries to the webmasters area.

Yea.. I get on ICQ about once a month.. Just too many people on there..

best way to contact me ( google talk)

ricyoung //at// gmail

Zebra just hit me up on google talk

you are crying about that affiliates are not sending you sales? that only stupid 8 percent is sending you money? thats why there is database problem? man that is one of the most stupid answer i saw so far ... what a stupid crybaby business ... sorry :2 cents:

well it seems you get a good chunk of sales on your own...makes sense to only want to work with quality webmasters....hopefully you will let in the up and comers, today's fish can be tomorrows whale.

best wishes

Im think you miss understood me. I am happy that affiliate only account for about 8% of my sales.. A lot of businesses in the past have pop up and made money and ran off and never really cared about long term business or rebill or anything else. Right now we have over 500 sales that are credited to affiliates that are from 2004, and they just keep rebilling.

Last year was a good year, while many programs are dyeing in this business a lot of it is because they didn't know how to sell there own product. Lucky we generate our own traffic and we know what works and what doesn't work, we know what niches convert and what doesn't, that is why last year was a growth year ( not by much, but we did grow)

One of the things that doesn't work for us is easy access to mass amounts of content. People will steal content, that is no big secret, but if you make it a bit harder it helps a lot to figure out what is popular ( what is worth stealing) and what isn't . Having an affiliate program with 54gigs of galleries is just too much too easy.

Yes. We will accept new affiliate very soon. We mostly will just want to see a web site or just to talk to the people ( i am open to suggestions on how to approve affiliates)

I learned a lot from the affiliate summit, for example If you go to a car dealership to get a job as a sales man, you need to show a resume, maybe a drug test, and a ton of other things to sell there product. If you go to an webmaster program, generally you just sign up and away you go selling there product.. with out any knowledge of the adult product you are selling and I have no knowledge of who is selling my program except for a minimal amount of information. This is what I am planning to change with my program.
