|
AFFILIATE NETWORK |
|
N1:
What information is required to open my new Affiliate Account? |
 |
|
To become an affiliate
we require standard contact information including an email address,
account password and several details to successfully deliver your
commission checks. Besides a valid name, address and an email
address on your account, we also require a valid name to which
monthly checks will be issued. |
|
N2:
Can I promote several affiliate programs and nude websites at once? |
 |
|
Yes! Every nude website
comes with a unique URL that targets each of our promotional
programs distinctly. You can promote our "50% Revenue Split" program
for one website, and simultaneously promote our "$30 Per Signup"
program for another website. We will report separate traffic and
revenue information for each one of our programs and corresponding
nude website(s). |
|
N3:
How long are my referred visitors tracked after their initial
visit? |
 |
|
All referred visitors
are tracked for 7 days from their initial visit. You will still get
full commission from visitors who decide to come back and join days
later! |
|
N4:
How does your system keep track of the referred visitors? |
 |
|
All referred visitors
are tracked through an advanced method of IP-to-BrowserID comparison
that creates a unique and accurate visitor identification. Even if
your visitor clears all stored private cookie and tracking
information from their computer, you will still get a full referral
credit for up to 7 days from their initial visit. |
|
N5:
How accurate is the "Commission Estimator" located on the
homepage of NudistHits.com? |
 |
|
Our Commission Estimator
is based on an accurate average of our current member retention
number (how long members stay active before they cancel) and an nude
membership upgrade ratio (percentage of members that decides to
upgrade to a higher-priced account). Combination of the two values
makes it easy to create an estimate of what your earnings might look
like. |
|
TRAFFIC & EARNING REPORTS |
|
T1:
Does your system use live traffic reporting? |
 |
|
Yes! Every hit is
instantly reported under the target promotional program of the
marketed website. |
|
T2:
How long does it take for my traffic to be converted
into revenue? |
 |
|
Due to member processing
reporting delays and account validation, it might take up to 12-36
hours before your nudist traffic is converted into revenue. Your
account will be credited at the time we receive the transaction
report from the target websites, not at the time of the initial
referral visit. |
|
T3:
What are all possible adjustments that my account can face across
all affiliate
programs? |
 |
|
50% Revenue Split
Adjustments are most common in this program due to 50/50 sharing of
all charges and refunds. While promoting this program you will be
credited with 50% of all sign-up, re-bill, upgrade and DVD order
charges. You will also be debited 50% of all refunds and chargebacks
that your referred accounts might face.
$30 Per Signup
You will be credited $30 for every referred member! There are no
debits with this program.
10% of Income from Referred Webmasters
You will be credited 10% from all checks issued to the webmasters at
the beginning of every month. There are no debits with this program. |
|
T4:
How long does it take for 10% of referred webmaster income to
roll-over to to my account? |
 |
|
10% of webmaster income
is calculated on the first of every month reflecting referred
webmaster's income during the previous month. Your commission will
be paid out on the same exact day as your webmaster's revenue
checks. |
T5:
If a member re-activates their expired nude
membership, do I still earn revenue from their
referred
account? |
 |
|
Yes, if a member was
referred through our "50% Revenue Split" program! Even if their
account was expired for months, upon re-activation you will continue
to earn revenue. |
|
T6:
What are program "Bonuses" and how do I earn them? |
 |
|
Periodically we will
reward our top affiliates, or affiliates who reached a certain
earning benchmark, with a bonus adjustment (recorded in the
"Bonuses" section of each program). Insure that you are our top
candidate by staying a head of the game when it comes to advertising
and promotion! Stay tuned to our network news announcements for the
details and requirements when bonus opportunities drops by. |
|
T7:
How are the net earnings calculated for each of the
affiliate programs? |
 |
|
50% Revenue Split

initial charges, re-bills, upgrades, DVD orders, shipping charges)
and subtracting all debits (50% of all refunds, chargebacks).
Performance bonuses are than added to net earning if all required
benchmarks are met.

this program. |
|
BANNERS & LINKS |
|
B1:
How are my affiliate links formatted? |
 |
|
Your affiliate URL may
look something like:
http://www.purenudism.com/index.html?ai=199991
The Affiliate ID variable ("ai") is passed to the target
URL and is used for tracking. In the example above, the first
character represents the target website you are promoting
(1=PureNudism.com, 2=BeBareToo.com). The next four characters are
your unique Affiliate Account ID that was assigned to you at
sign-up. And finally, the last character represents the program you
are promoting (1=50% Revenue Split, 2=$30 Per Signup, 3=10%
Webmaster Program). |
|
B2:
Can I associate affiliate links with my own text or nude image
content? |
 |
|
Yes! However, your
textual or photographic material associated with our links must be
appropriate. We reserve the right to ask you to update your linked
graphic or descriptions. |
|
B3:
Do you have any additional promotional banners that I can use? |
 |
|
We are currently in the
process of creating new banners and nudist promotional material our
affiliates can use. We also encourage our affiliates to create their
own custom nude promotional items such as graphics, banners and
descriptions that will stand out from the affiliate crowd. |
|
B4:
Can I use any of the images from the target nude websites on my
nudist site for promotion? |
 |
|
We do not mind if some
of our material is used on affiliate's referral pages for
promotional purposes only; however, initial permission must be given
before any of our material is published on your website. In addition
to having explicit permission for the use of our material on a
per-image basis, there are certain content restrictions in place.

|
RULES & LEGAL |
|
R1:
What types of websites are not permitted to host your referral
links? |
 |
|
Websites that host our
links and banners do not necessarily have to be nude pages. However,
periodically we will review affiliate's traffic information and if
in our sole discretion we decide that the referral pages are
explicit or inappropriate, we will ask affiliate links to be
migrated to more appropriate pages. We work with our affiliates to
make the best of their referring traffic. |
|
R2:
Are all nude websites part of your affiliate network legal? |
 |
|
Yes! All participating
nude websites are fully legal in every city, every state and every
county inside the United States. They are protected by the First
Amendment and are not subject to local obscenity laws or ordinances.
The depiction of adults and children nude in the visual media has
enjoyed constitutional protection in the United States since 1958,
when the Supreme Court vacated a Court of Appeals finding that
Sunshine & Health magazine could be obscene (Sunshine Book Co. v.
Summerfield, Postmaster General, 355 U.S. 372). The right to depict
adults and children in innocent nude poses has been upheld without a
pause for 41 years. In case after case, the Supreme Court and lower
courts have always upheld the constitutionality of "nudity without
more," specifically referring to the nudist depiction as a fully
constitutional form of expression. Memberships are widely sold in
all of Asia, Europe, South America, Canada, Australia and Africa and
majority of other developed countries. The only exception may be
countries where nudity of any kind is banned. |
|
R3:
Is email marketing allowed? |
 |
|
Due to the nature of
opt-in marketing and the sensitivity of nude material, all email
advertising can only be done to email addresses originally added by
their owners while visiting our nude websites. We do not want anyone
receiving nude advertising who did not request it explicitly.
Sending out emails without the email owner's initial subscription is
unsolicited and is taken very seriously. We have filters in place
that will identify and automatically suspend affiliate accounts if a
certain percentage of referral domains are email service providers
(ex. Gmail, Hotmail, etc.) |
|
R4:
Where can I review a complete list of Rules and your Terms and
Conditions? |
 |
|
Feel free to review our
Terms and Conditions anytime! Our network is designed to
meet all legal requirements as well as promote an ongoing healthy
relationship between us and our affiliate clients. |
