>>you really think the free trial model is going to change after decades of use? not likely.
Hmmm,
I've been in aff marketing for 10 years and never saw this model for aff marketers until less than a year ago for online aff marketing. I'd love to know what products I missed out on promoting those first 9 years.
The model has been around for a long time, but that was all offline and the disclosure was much more upfront than you see in the online model and offers.
From what I see, google isn't liking this model, just as they stopped liking the online pharmacy model and put an end to adwords for online pharms and prescription drugs. Am I wrong here, or am I seeing that the biggest marketing avenue for products is giving a thumbs down to this model just as they did to selling drugs online?
