Payouts Will Be Lowered

We all know that a unique, quality site will kick ass over any cookie cutter with plug ins time and time again.

Lets try and hold "Hustler" brand site out from this (many webmasters have traffic, which do not convert on pornstar/general type sites - they need something alittle more "niche" to convert), so lets focus on the "cookie cutter with plug ins" sites - ex. CashQuest and ARS:

I see that CashQuest are paying $28 per signup on sites which have:

- entry console with 4 large consoles
- frontpage e-mail newsletter signup box
- trial $4.95/3 days ~ recurring $29.95/30 days
- pre checked 1 free day cross sale ~ recurring $19.95/30 days
- pre checked 1 free day cross sale ~ recurring $14.95/30 days
- pre checked e-mail newsletter signup

ARS is currently paying $35 per signup on sites which have:

- entry console with 1 console
- exit console with 5 consoles
- trial $4.95/5 days ~ recurring $39.95/30 days
- pre checked $1/3 days cross sale ~ recurring $39.76/30 days

When I looked at ARS suggestions, then they will pay $29 per signup on sites which have (they have NOT said they will lower - they are still looking at numbers):

- entry console with 1 console
- exit console with 5 consoles
- trial $4.95/5 days ~ recurring $29.95/30 days
- pre checked $1/3 days cross sale ~ recurring $19.95/30 days (I guess it will be around $20)

Mind you, I know nothing about CashQuest or ARS conversions from trial/recurring, how much they make from other billing options etc.... just looking at the programs and trying to compare from a "webmaster" point of view... It looks like the current CashQuest, and the possible new ARS setup pays almost the same?

So how does CashQuest do these days... are you happy with your current setup (pricing, cross sell etc.) or will there also be changes here?

Just wondering...
