hey guys i'm with file sonic PDD plan, i upload files larger than 400 mb and most of my downloads come from countries in tier A and B and yet i get only arround 13$ for 1000 download when it's supposed to be at least around 25$ so they are obviously shaving like hell, but my true concern is for PPS plans...don't you think it's a rip off when you get paid only once a life per user when they buy a premium but you won't get a dime after that if the user decides to renew...

You should be happy that they are paying you at all, dont be greedy. Filesonic is running a profit making business, its not a charity. If you give you a share of all the renewal earnings, how will they stay in the business.

it's not about greed and i'm not begging for some charity here, i spend my precious time to earn them premium sales so they better pay me oterwise why would i even bother..there are plenty of similar business models out there that pay they're members on a revnue share model 50/50 but i'm not asking for that as i know a filehosting has a lot to spend on servers and bandwidth, staff...ect but rewarding uploaders with 2$ or 3 whenever an exiting premium users renew his account wouldn't hurt now would it
 
yes, there are hosts that pay you for renewals as well, but they are not famous at all. 99% of them are fly by, scam hosts.

Filesonic has a good system in place, they are paying users and that too in decent numbers. I'd be more happy if they improve their infrastructure rather than change their payout schemes

I don't know if they are shaving downloads or not. Your second point is important because yes, on PPS program you earn 65% or 10$ fixed for each sale.

But what happens if the user decide to renew their account? nothing, because you don't earn any commission for rebills.

On Oron.com you will earn money for rebills up 55% (lifetime money). If you are a good webmaster then they offer you 65% on sales and rebills.

Oron own 2 biggest forums: pornbb and forumophilia

What is bad on Oron.com:
limited web space, 15 GB data transfer per 2 days

I do not use Oron right now because my site have filesonic links :) and many Filesonic premium members

you are wrong, the downloads that shows in the statistics are unique downloads, 1000 downloads mean 1000 unique downloads

that's where most of my downloads comes from

now supposly that ALL my download comes from group B which is not the case here cause most my downloads comes from group A and say that i even upload files under 400 mb shouldn't i at least get 19$ instead of the crap they given me? i don't know what to call this if not shaving downloads
 
That's only "Earning from Downloads". Of course it will show you have more earnings from A and B.

At the left you will see "Number of Downloads" - and then the pie chart. Why don't you post that?
 
Don't complaint dude.. continue upload and if you feel they are cheating, stop uploading to fiso, simple as that. They are not pushing you to upload with them.

I hope they do scam you. You're too greedy. Be lucky they pay anything at all. They do not even claim to pay recurring fees if the user renews. Do you want them to close down to please you? for fuck sakes....8-)

are you really that thick, they are not running a charity here, they wouldn't pay you a dime if they didn't know they'll earn 10x out of it so get your facts right...i'm not greedy at all i'm just pissed cause they don't play by they're own rules; why put a PPD plan that they cannot afford so they startn shaving, i score for them sales daily and sometimes i bring them more than 5 sales but i choose the PPD plan because i don't like to earn by luck whether the visitor wants to buy from my link or buy from the official site without my refferal, all i ask if they put a PPD program that they would commit to so uploaders know what they are dealing with..

by the way @JJJ mate you are a hypocrite saying your imagehosting site is stable, i used it a few times and it was a nightmare at rush hours so probably crappy services stick for each other 8-)

Also, when was the service bad? I've had like 3 hours of downtime total the since last September. Reason was a 1,000,000/sec ddos attack. I'm sure service did suck through that :O lol
 
i had a megathread where i used imagetwist, pixhost and ur site, at rush hours both imagetwist pixhost loads just fine but ur sites keeps giving 502 bad getaway error or the page just keep loading painfully forever, only time ur site works for me is at mornings or late at night, i'm done discussing your site issues so if u have something to say about the main subject go ahead otherwise just leave it alone
