Hi Jason,

The network blogs are another easy way to keep up to date with the latest generic discount codes, certainly a lot easier than trawling through hundreds of merchant emails.

I posted on A4U about a kind of affiliate/merchant "dating agency" - but the response to that was one reply. Makes me wonder where the proactivity is in the industry or if PPC/Cashback are just so big now that there's no need for merchants to try and develop relationships with affiliates?

I would too, but given the limitations of the network’s CMS for affiliates to explain what is they do, would like, looking for etc. then there’s not much else you can do!

Personally, I would hate to see the A4UForum suddenly turn into a request website from merchants. I dunno, you can't please some people :p Anyway, as for networks - I couldn't agree more with you Jason. Webgains far surpassed my expectation of unique discount codes, and I just need a bit more time to start ramping up the results. AWin are also proactive however, on the rest of the front, all appears quiet. I think over coming months this will change somewhat as other merchants become a little more pro-active. “you might find your thread gets hijacked” – you referring to me and a thread on A4U by any chance? ;)
