My strongest leg is in Slovakia.

Has anyone tried the paid Facebook advertising and, if so, did it work/was it was worth the cost?

I have not had good results with Facebook ads or fan pages. I have tried apps on fan pages that promise tons of likes and the most I ever got was about half a dozen. I wouldn't disregard it completely, but I certainly wouldn't put all my eggs in the Facebook basket.

How does sponsoring many affiliates help me?

Sponsoring affiliates is like playing solitaire. You never know if the next affiliate will be an ace who will cause your business to grow beyond your wildest dreams, or a very successful king, queen, or jack. The red cards are the good ones.

If it were a PSA, and it were a possible language barrier, I would suggest reassigning to another affiliate who speaks the same language, but since you cannot reassign CSA, you might want to see if you can find the sponsor of that CSA, to see if they can reassign, since they will not do you any good as a nonresponsive affiliate. Maybe that sponsor will want to reciprocate if it helps.

What Website-builder software/service would you recommend for building a personal SFI Website?

webs.com sites are also free and have the ability to make external links. That means you can make your sfi gateways into pages on your website. This is an example: http://www.sfi-rewards-4-u.webs.com
