Addult Profit - Out Of Business

TheBeginning · May 30th, 2010, 05:05 AM

Just saw this at gfy, thought can be important for many of us.

Quote:

It is with deep regret that we make this announcement. The present economic circumstances coupled with significant negative shifts in the adult industry over recent years make it impractical to continue running our affiliate program. The program has not been profitable in a significant time.

All payouts for the month of May 2010 shall be made as usual. However, no affiliate tracking will take place after midnight May 31, 2010 so it will be necessary for you to find a new advertiser.

We would like to personally thank all of our Webmasters for years of hard work and dedication. You made it a great journey for us. We at Adult Profit wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

~ Renaldo,

I saw last week they hadnt been tracking my traffic to big boob tales for months. Sent them an email but never heard back, this must be why.

RIP AP.

Yep, less than 24 hours to drop their links, I got the email 3 hours ago...soOo glad i'm not pushing them.

Worked for WEG!

Note they said that "no affiliate tracking will take place" rather than "we are shutting the sites down"

Oh well, at least they're admitting that they'll be making internal sales from affiliate traffic...

JACOBKELL · May 30th, 2010, 09:02 AM

Well luckily they never made me a single sale.

just heard it a few minutes ago as well, really sucks, but i must admit i skipping the program emails from most programs those days, a friend told me, otherwise i wouldnt have it found out

since AP is one of my better running programs, its a real big pain for me, and i am sure that something pretty dramatic did happened there, otherwise i am sure they would have told me.
Will ask the owner for more details, but i am damn sure they they never did, nor even ever planned to screw affialtes since i know most of the guys their personally

Even if that is the case and they are not going to rip anyone off, dead programs seem to be a sign of the times. When I got the email about AP I thought we should maybe keep a running thread for listing these programs as they die off. I would go as far as saying if the interval between WEG and AP is going to be the norm then maybe a sticky would be even better. Maybe it'll end with these two but if not then an easy place to find this kind of info would be great.

So much for no xsells between different merchants anymore

+1 would be great to have a dead sponsors thread, especially for those with TGP's it would be impossible to keep track of alone
