 | Random Affiliate Annoyances |
Annoying Advertisers
Which part of ‘no we are not interested in working with you’ do some companies find difficult to comprehend? One company phoned us on Monday enquiring about getting space on Loquax. We said “no” - quite simply because they’re USA based and our UK partners work well for our audience. Today (Wednesday) they phoned again and asked if we’d changed our minds? Erm - no.. dur!
Annoying Affiliates
Ok we run a free listing site - and most of the time we’re happy to help people and list competitions. But why do people who submit affiliate based shopping portals with £10 vouchers as prizes, or VWD syndicated sites, or sites that want our users to click on links or register with merchants get annoyed when we say no to them! Send us crap competitions and we don’t list them! Send us crap sites and we don’t list those either.
Link Exchanges
I didn’t ask for them! I don’t ask for them! So why the hell do I get emails saying “we noticed you haven’t added our link yet, you have 48 hours … blah!”?? Note to idiots who think this is big and clever and a great way to get a reciprocal link. It isn’t!
I Have A Question About Your Website Emails?
Must be getting a boat load of these as email subjects a day now. They haven’t got a question about my website it’s just some spammy git saying how they’ve gone from $0 to several million by offering downloads!
;o)
