Free trials have always been a bad idea. They have been abused, as well as the cross sales. We have brought this upon ourselves.
I am very EXCITED about these changes.
One reason PureCash has not launched on time was due to the changes that were coming down. We wanted to make sure that we have the right business model built in, and not try to build on the old model that is being put to sleep.
I think in the long run this will make the industry much more stable. We have enjoyed a drunken orgy of $45 payouts on free trials... reality looks like it is finally setting in.

Free Trials made everyone more money to be able to pay for the new options webmasters get to have now
- Free Host
- Free hosted content
- $35-50 a signup
- etc.
cross sells to a user is not that bad 3-7 days free to check out two more sites, if you know what your doing as a surfer this is actually a sweet bonus.
The problem was that 50% of them never knew they were accepting the cross sell, thus few months later the C word comes.
