Happy New Year - 2016

[RyanWeb]

Happy New Year! May we all prosper and grow this year and learn from last.. Hopefully without anymore roguish setbacks!

I've had a bit much to drink But someone should do a recap of this year.. Off the top of my head I just recall the Affactive mess.. Notably the biggest mess of the year. I know quite a few programs closed.. Hackers... That Halloween theme here at AGD lol ...

Through it all, I did pretty well income wise in 2015 (when compared to 2014).. Looking forward to see what 2016 has in store!

New year = new opportunities, new horizons, new hope... and probably loads of the same old shit!

Low-lights of 2015:
Felt sorry for anyone who got "burned" by the Affactive/RevenueJet fiasco - even though the warning signs were there for at least a year prior to their ultimate demise.
(Personally I dumped them in Feb 2014 when they started seriously jerking players around).

In February the idiot owners of Sunset Slots switched the casino from Rival to Top Game, instantly killing what had been one of my best earning casinos in 2014...

Several other Rival Powered casinos basically just "vanished" with no communication, and commission still owing (only small amounts though).

My personal 2 worst disasters:
Lucky Spins RTG casino only opened in the early part of 2015 - unfortunately they proved VERY popular with visitors to my websites... and very bad at paying affiliates. After finally paying my May commission, they eventually disappeared from the planet in October, owing me very close too $7,000.

After 7 years of faithful and intense promotion, Sky Vegas / Affiliate Hub stabbed me and all their other smaller affiliates in the back in October, by reducing our commission from 25%+ to 5%.
Again, one of my best earners in 2014 wiped out in a single stroke

Highlights of 2015:
Totally out of the blue, surprise massive months (>$5,000) at a Top Game and an MG casino!

Lots of new high-quality casinos added to my sites.

Overall, despite the set-backs, 2015 was still my best year ever as an affiliate. Here's hoping 2016 is at least as good or better for myself and all my fellow affiliates!

New Year Resolutions (same as every year! ):
Work harder and smarter (i.e. use my time more efficiently).
Dump the duffers! (Be more ruthless in dumping casinos who don't perform).
Get a few more website projects off the ground - or give up the URLs.
Spend more time with the family, and less time sat here in front of my laptop.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Happy New Year to everyone. I'm sure that 2016 will be better than 2015 for me as I remove more dodgy sponsors from my sites

Yup it's the clear up stage.. I am waiting for payments from Nov 2016 by a certain place that had a delay... and Someone has been caught shaving.. This has got to be one of the only industries where partners are treated in contempt.. Anyhow my other programs done great with excellent conversions so they will be getting exposure the Cowboys had...

I think most of us are, and maybe unintentionally, collectively removing more dodgy programs.. I only hope the programs themselves start to take notice.
