    Was wondering if thehut.com is converting well for anybody, because it certainly 'aint for us. Whereas 300 targeted visitors to certain other DVD retailers would generate at least a few sales, with thehut.com is more likely to be zero. As the payment is only CPA it means we are earning zilch.

    Have been trying to encourage them for at least a year to improve their site, but just falls on deaf ears

    I have had a few sales but nothing much, i also would have had more sales but they where given to another affiliate even though i was the last referrer, i was told this by the hut.

    Just because the merchant and the affiliate had a agreement, i was also told its common practise..... So cold for me

    I'm running about 10% conversion with the Hut. Not as good as some entertainment retailers but better than others.

    I would hope if that is correct that AF have some very strong words with The Hut straight away and show them the error of their ways...
    Never argue with idiots. They just drag you down to their level and then beat you with their experience.

    If ignorance is bliss then some of the people I know must be orgasmic.

    Perhaps they should even "Hit the Hut"...?

    Or at the very least give them a pizza their mind.

    Sorry for not replying sooner. This is the first I have heard about this, if you have any details I will be happy to follow up with them as this is defiantly not "common practice".
