It’s a lot harder to find clean video plug trades who don’t use long videos or shitty tube embeds and in return my traffic takes a little dip like a roller coaster.

I’m considering letting in a trades who use those tube sites or long videos because I figure that if they don’t want sales and quality bookmark traffic, at least I still get them.  But I wonder about these few things:

1. If I associate my site with the sites who promote long videos and tube sites, am I harming the industry by being a secondary promoter? And if so, by how much, and how will it affect my business?

2. Will my conversion ratios decline, but ppc/dating/cams ad revenue increase? And how much time do I have before my ppc/dating/cams rates/conversions decline due to everyone else promoting them even more?

3.  AAW once paid a pretty penny, but now pays a much less because A) it’s been abused by webmasters who place ads in poor places which don’t convert for the advertiser and it also takes 100k daily to earn decent cash with AAW.

4. If I do succomb to the changing market and associate with websites who provide long videos, how long until this industry dies due to affiliate programs closing because they’re no longer making money because we’re no longer converting for them?

5. Am I trapped in a case of “if you don’t do it, someone else will?”

6. What are the benefits of associating with tube/long video websites, and do the benefits outweigh the harm possibly caused in the long run to the industry?

7. How do affiliate programs feel about this? I see one lawsuit from Teen Revenue against Red Tube, but I don’t see any other actions against the tube movement, so is it secretly embraced?

8. What are some creative ways to generate additional income if sales decline due to the user getting off on a poor quality and buffering long video?
