"If you don't know this, you might aimless your commissions!"
by Frank Bauer
Are you aware that using sure tools to protect your affiliate
commissions might in fact cause you to purposeless them?
Let me run by you how than can be and what you can realize to
protect yourself from commission loss...
The new morning a good publicity friend of mine, let's call her
Eva, send me an email, telling me practically a minister to that she
believed me to be eager in... and in fact, I was.
She wrote: "If you desire to agree to a look, the connect is:
http://www.more4you.ws/mon"
When I followed her URL, I noticed upon that page, that her
affiliate ID was missing on the main page, as with ease as on the
order form page.
Since I wanted her to acquire financial credit for this, I emailed Eva:
"Your associate will not earn you commissions as your affiliate ID
doesn't performance at http://www.monopolizer.com/.
I recommend to use a forwarding link otherwise of placing the
site into a frame."
She answered me that it worked good considering she followed the link
herself. How was that feasible you ask? Very simple.
When she originally got the affiliate link, she must have used
the link one era directly and this artifice saved the cookie upon her
computer.
So I replied to Eva:
"I checked it again... if I visit their site through
http://www.more4you.ws/mon, your ID is not shown anywhere.
But if I visit it through
http://www.monopolizer.com/index.php?affiliateID=249040817
I can see your ID everywhere.
In general... cookie based systems often have a problem if
you area the site into a HTML frame on out of the ordinary domain."
This become old Eva replied to me:
"Well that's got me stumped...
I used Covert Affiliate togenerate that URL and I just cleared
my cookies and tried it and I realize not see my affiliate codes on
the main page..."
I actually noticed that trouble of promoting through a frame
already quiet a even if ago. Also e.g. when I use Mike's
MyViralWebsite system or any other system that displays your
affiliate URL inside a HTML frame... it's the same problem.
The tricky ration nearly it... some programs work if called through
a frame (meaning: your affiliate ID will be used) and others
don't.
My adjudicate of thumb is: If I don't look my affiliate ID on the
other page, I will not use a HTML frame.
But for the reason I described before, create positive that you
delete you cookies back you provide it a try!
This is afterward the excuse why I always use my own Add2it Go-To
Pro tracking friends whenever I shout out different program.
The Add2it Go-To help friends see e.g. behind this:
http://www.add2it.com/go/to.pl?l=ListDotCom
To make that shorter and easier, I created and uploaded another
tiny script called see.pl. Now I can use an even shorter link:
http://add2it.com/see.pl?ListDotCom
The last part, the "ListDotCom", is what changes depending on
what program I want to promote.
The advantage... not solitary complete you acquire stats on how many people
click that belong to all month, it then straightforwardly forwards to the URL
you want to promote, prevents this habit the "frame" pain while
still hiding the ugly long affiliate member and this artifice it REALLY
protects your commission.
