% k, l2 D, a* L3 B0 V1 K. ]Affiliate marketing is alive and well. However, the particular model that PeerFly was built on no longer represents the most efficient or cost-effective method for generating new sales and leads for advertisers. Over the years, many advancements in online marketing have created new low barriers of entry for businesses who want to control their marketing internally. Platforms like Facebook have dominated the ability to precisely target an audience and have made it incredibly easy to scale. Combined with a great economy, where businesses are okay risking marketing dollars to find the right audience, the model of the “Affiliate Network” is one that doesn’t work nearly as well in 2019 as it did just 5 years earlier.

We’ve made over 50,000 individual payments to affiliates since PeerFly started and we’ll continue to do so until everyone who’s owed is paid. As long as you’ve met the required $50 threshold by Wednesday, July 31st, you will receive payment on the regular net30 schedule. 6 S( V2 c# I# [3 J * u!

我个人感觉我应该算是Peerfly 最早的一批affiliates 之一，在大约2009年peerfly 还没有崛起的时候就开始推荐大家加入，一直到现在的2019年，整整十年了，不免有点嘘嘘感叹) h% }! y! {, X! V
. v% K& {1 g, u, u% f毋庸置疑，peerfly 只过去几年最好的affiliate networks 之一，发钱及其稳定，但是也可以看到他们的不足，就是基本上拿不到很好的US 的本地offer，intl offer 相对来说多了不少，有点类似于以前mundo， 看着有几千个offer，但是都是intl 的，而且质量只能说一般。 & C2 p+ g2 w& r % s) E1 p- J. Z7 a7 vChad 说 affiliate network 不如以前好做了，这个应该是相对来说的. FTC 的要求越来越多， affiliate networks 的日子确实不好混，这个时候就体现出来一家公司的合规能力和biz 的能力, 固守于US市场的 W4 应该算是其中的赢家之一，US 的市场这么多年来offer 的种类基本没有什么大的变化，所以日子也算滋润。 . |: l/ {.
