Saw an offer on NB for debt consolidation paying $3.50 for an email submit. The thing is their exit pop is a javascript alert for a cash advance site (which pays $40+). Great vertical, lol. You think the advertiser is doing ok with it? I'm sure they're scrubbing like crazy but they also get all that affiliate-pushed free traffic to the exit pop plus potential leads for the debt consolidation which I'm sure they resell. I know this setup is done all the time but man!
yeah, many times you will find out that merchants are actually publishers. They create a main offer with squeeze page and offer ZIP/Email or shortform payout only to progress to other merchant as an affiliate and show bunch of back end /exit offers. It is pretty slick, I was looking into joining like that as a merchant, you get marketing data from squeeze page plus get affiliates to promote multiple of you affl links at the same time, and you shave like crazy, pretty nice set up but coding is beyond me :-(
