Adult Check Dead ?

[Carrie]

I thought the end of AVS wouldn't truly be near until the 3 biggest AVS went down, AdultCheck being one of them.

Seems they're "restructuring". Keeping a group of their top affiliates and having them sign something like contracts to be "content providers". The sites will be hosted on AC's servers and the people who make them will be "first tier" (whatever that means). I think there are about 100 of those webmasters. Another 250 or so webmasters have been contacted as a "second tier", to send traffic only - I suppose the way they'll officially put it down on paper is "these people are *selling* us traffic".

It's smart, but it sure does cut out a lot of people who've made good money on AVS and who had sites still in there generating them a check each month even though they hadn't been touched in ages.

Ahh well. Gotta do what ya gotta do to keep the business going. I'm glad at least to see AC changing and adapting rather than just shutting down completely.
