How much should I pay per IP address referral?

Hello

I have made bedEXCHANGE.co, located at http://bedexchange.co

I have made a nice affiliate campaign, however now my service is 100% Free and then i collect my revenue from advertisers like Adsense and banners instead etc.

Now I need to change my affiliate program payment plan to my affiliate members... sorry for any inconvenience.

Now I will pay an affiliate marketer a commission for a lead referral 'per IP address'. In other words, if a visitor comes to my site from 'this' or 'that' IP address, then they will get a one time once off commission for a visit from that IP address.

Now please may you help for market research purposes - how much would be a fair amount for me to pay you or another affiliate marketer in this setup? Please supply examples of other affiliate programs paying in a similar way...

And do you have any other suggestion?

Thank you
Steven

Hi,

It's your business and it's important that you determine what the lifetime value of each visitor is worth to you as you can't run a business paying out at a loss for the long term.

The best way that you could control this is by having your own products, as you won't be able to reliably predict and control income from adsense and banners (unless you rent banner space monthly).

Hello esolutions

It's your business and


Yes, i understand it is my business... are you saying the final choice is up to me? If you are, then i understand that is correct.

it's important that you determine what the lifetime value of each visitor is worth to you


I realize i need to weigh up how many visitors will stay for a 'extended' visit and become a member, and then how many visitors will just visit as little as once or twice...

Once i sort this ratio i can judge how much i should charge for banner advertisements on my site. But i must also take in to consideration the "how much i will pay per IP address visitor".

If for example, you and other told me that $.050 is fair, or $0.20 or even $2.00 is fair, then i can quite easily come up with a business model to run my service where i have free membership for MY product, but i sell banner advertising AT my site so then the roll on effect is that when people click a banner i earn money, or i could do it like impressions...

NOTE: I'm not looking for business advice, and you have completely changed the subject from the original post. I have asked for a simple question... That is:
how much would be a fair amount for me to pay you or another affiliate marketer in this setup?


Thank you
Steven

I think it depends on the quality of the ip referral, convertion rate and any other factors
