I've probably got 3 or 4 hundred domain names that i haven't bothered to host. I haven't done much to promote sponsors for the last couple of years because I question the rewards. I don't have the same business as most affiliates, and I don't want to build the usual types of sites - not because their isn't money in doing it, but because it isn't my type of challenge.
I start these types of thread to try to discover if I should be pushing traffic directly to sponsors, or if I should run it through aggregators instead. To a certain extent it's the sponsors job to convince me that I should send my traffic to them, and right now they aren't doing a very good job.
