It is ALL about the Profits
I can appreciate the work/costs many of you owners may have invested in your sites...
...yet it irks me to have webmasters feeling free to be openly testy (with me) over the issue of money. Am not an "online business tire-kicker", I just do not have the money to casually hand over. Yet I find ways to contribute monetarily in small ways when I can , everywhere I can.
There is now a new "rank" in CTP--the "Explorer". One advances when site-owners acknowledge completion of "tasks"--and some of these seem to involve coughing up $$ for upgrades.
Pragmatically clever.
Just be magnanimous in granting "task-completions" for smaller non-subscription upgrades and credits-purchases.

Good post. As a new ctp owner I am looking at the best way to introduce badges, explorer, etc. Any ideas?
EACH action you request of affiliates to perform ought to have some "Explorer rank" value. Even signing up or logging in 5...10 times.
You can offer a badge for "threshold actions" reading 50 posts or adding 5 referral links to the Downline Builder. Even reward purchases for credits with "Explorer rank" points.
You have to remember that there are A LOT of owners and EACH is looking to squeeze as much out of affiliates as they can. So each has to make their sites, offers and rewards ATTRACTIVE and RELEVANT.
