WARNING- SCAMMING SPONSOR : Suicide Girls.com
OK – I wasn’t going to post this, but these guys have been 100% arseholes to deal with from the word go. If you promote them, you WILL get scammed.
For those who don’t want to read everything – after one week of signing up:
Note – the site I created works purely off new SE terms.
Quote: Simon,
I want to thank you for trying to increase SuicideGirls.com traffic with cutegoths.com and joining our affiliate program, however we no longer wish to have you as an affiliate, your site is just not bringing any results (only one sign-up).
I have closed your affiliate account and would appreciate it if you remove SuicideGirls content from your site.
Thank you,

SuicideGirls.com I’m going to do this by a blow blow blow, just so you can see what type of idiots they are.
#1 – I register. I’m using text only from their site, and buttons only from their site.
Quote: We thank you for signing up for our affiliate program, however, your site is breaking some of the rules:
1. Please REMOVE the text "goth teen culture" "newest teen goths" and any other mention of teens. Our Girls are NOT for teens, you must be over 18 to enjoy them. This is fair enough, but stupid. I remove the text teens.
Quote: Also, on each girls page, the sentence: "We have the pleasure of bringing you the latest nude pic set from our very sexy OTOK" should be taken off, or corrected. it should not read "from our very sexy", they are NOT your girls, they are Suicide Girls (and that needs to be capitalized).
3. As an affiliate, you are only authorized to use the preview images and banners. You may NOT use profile information, journal entries or anything else that is not a pre-approved image. 2 is fair enough, but stupid, 3 is just stupid.
Anyhow, I go ahead and make the changes.
Next round – suddnely they change their minds.
Quote: Simon, thanks for your cooperation.
I’ve double checked with Missy, and she said that as long as you take out any mention of Teens, and clearly state that these are Suicidegirls and NOT your girls, then she’s okay with you keeping the profile information on your site.
Thanks again,
ViquiV Quote: It’s fixed now.
Thank you! 2 hours later:
Quote: Hey Simon,
We are still perfecting our affiliate program, and adding to the "terms and conditions." Yesterday, your affiliate account was closed, and I apologize for that, as you were very accommodating with the changes we asked you to make.
We appreciate your interest in the site and your efforts to increase our traffic. The one thing we’d like you to change, however, is the comments that you’re posting on your site. We’ve decided to only allow 5 journal entries per girl and five comments on each set to be displayed on a site other than ours.
We’d also like to know your future plans for your site. You advertise it as a goth myspace. If you’re eventually going to have your own members, who can login and post on your site…and post comments on our pictures, that’s going to be a problem. The affiliate program is meant to be a way for others to advertise our site by linking to it, once you start incorporating your own community it gets complicated.
I make more senseless changes:
Quote: Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation.
I hope your site is successful and we can send you lots of cash! 
-ViquiV oh, no wait:
Quote: At the top of the column on the right side…can you change it to say Recent SuicideGirl pics…instead of Cute Goth pics…this way it’s clear that these are SuicideGirls.
Thanks! 10 minutes later:

SuicideGirls.com Judge for yourselves.
All I can say is – fuck you. You might have got some press in some newspapers recently, but if you think this is how you can fraud affiliates, get fucked.

Good stats system for blogs and other sites
I know there is threads that used this exact topic, but I just wanted to use a fresh one. I think that this would be good info for at least quite a few webmasters out there and better info than other stats threads that I searched though.
Anyway, I was looking for a good stats system for my wordpress blogs and I could not find any.
WordPress plugins stats systems:
- cystats
very disorganized and confusing, but does ok, definetly not great
- google-analyticator
i think this one just made it easy to add that google analytics code to your pages, that’s all it did
- google-analytics-for-wordpress
i think this one just counted outgoing hits, not bad
- statpress-reloaded
this is supposed to be the new version of old statpress, i didn’t see much difference
- wassup
gives indebth info on visitors, not what i was looking for
- wp-statpress
just another stats script
There were I think few more stats plugins, the short stats I was not able to install even, anyway, none of them were really good enough.
The world famous google analytics:
- Yes, pretty fancy, lots of information but, what a second, where the hell is yahoo hits? I never saw mine and I saw them with other stats sytems, so my conclusion is that there is something wrong with them. Someone on netpond said that "why would they give you such great stats system for free" and I think they were right. They screw up other search engines stats and I’m gonna leave it at that.
Propably the best free hosted stats sytem:
statcounter.com – again not what I was looking for
Popular and good install script stats system:
awstats – very good system, only one problem, why the hell wouldn’t they enable an option where I could select specific time range like october 10 to october 15 for example, that’s the only thing i didn’t like, other than that, it’s a great script.
Finally after shit load of searching, I fould this one:
Free web statistics, phpMyVisites web analytics
Check it out, I think it’s gold. As far as I know, it counts visits using java script, but most people have that enabled anyways. It kind of seems like the google one and it has all the options that you can imagine.
There is my netpond contribution

How are paysite sales going for everyone? not cam or dating
I have seen a decline not sure how much but shit aint converting across the board with us and traffic we send to others.
thank god Getrichinporn is making up the differance for us.
what do you think is the reason lets create a list. as an industry we should start targeting the problems and try to fix them slowly.
I personaly think its the free sites thats show to much. from tgp’s to tubes. we should have guide lines as to whats exceptable free porn to show.
even with the economy in the shitter people will stay pay if they can get jack off free
