Hey Betjugg

Every site converts differently for different brands. It's worthwhile for you to test brands on your site, but work out which fit your site the best.

Let me know if you have specific questions re Sportsbook Poker or Playersonly Poker.

The programs you have listed should be fine, I have had experiences with a few of them without any problems. But on the other hand sometimes you just never know what's going to happen.

These are my opinions only based on my experience with the following rooms.
Always read the affiliate T&C's before promoting any room.

CarbonPoker
High deductions and poor conversion rates. I recommend Aced, Reefer or any of the other decent skins over Carbon.

PokerStars
CPA is low and they just raised the threshold for qualifying players. I'm promoting them less this year.

FullTilt
Worth promoting but the 60 day rule wipes out a lot of your potential players plus the high deductions turns net commissions into less than 20%

Doyles Room
Converting fairly well. I'm on rakeback with them so my commissions are low since the player value is not very high. Having a few players cross over to the casino has helped.

BoDog
I just began promoting Bodog this year and so far they are not converting for me. I love their brand name recognition/marketing and think they will do well in the long term so am giving them all of 2010 to break loose for me.
