With a lot of really excellent talk (and pearls) around here on shaving and how much programs pay and the rest of the obvious stuff that the GFYers-at-large don't understand ... seems the perfect time to ask this:
Sponsors, why bother at all with the 95 percent of the webmasters who make you next to nothing, and just go with the 5 percent who do?
The 95% give you the least traffic, cause the most headaches, require sponsor content, require handholding thus requiring marketing and affiliates reps, won't even signup unless these days unless you give them everything: POTDs, free hosted galleries, free hosted sites, then there's the advertising to attact these folks, on boards, in mags, and often sponsoring parties too. Why even bother?
Natch, I have my own thoughts and answers on why to bother -- but even with those it's debatable sometimes if it's worth it. In any case, please discuss.
