    Nope, everything is fine in my accounts.

    I suggest you look into your web analytics and check if there were any sudden changes in the structure of your traffic.

    This is the time when I would suggest you should diversify...Go with as many niches as possible. Some of my accounts are normal, some showing high sales while others are almost dead even after great last week sales.

    I'm going to try changing links to new account, its really lot of headache, I don't understand what's happening with clickbank servers.Thinking about marketing is alot alredy, I have to think about tracking problems which is kinda of guess work, it sucks.

    and I know this is not normal, in the past 3 days, I increase my marketing campaigns and u can see the last 3 days sales increases, and I was expecting like $100-$200 but $0 for 3 days ! Definitely tracking problems, I'm getting more traffic also, around 900 targetted traffic, what's going on with clickbank.

    Its not like another economy crisis again, nor there are any world war going on. Its clickbank, what are they doing ?

    I will wait 2 more days and see if I still get 0 before I change my links, I will let you guys know if I get any sale.

    Complete opposite for me i am afraid.

    I am now pretty convinced though that the sudden changes are due to CB carrying out a review of the risk profile of certain accounts, i.e. if you have sent a bunch of customers with dodgy cards then they will review this and then up the security, others who have seen a better class of customer will have less security, hence the sudden changes.

    Am I making sense? Probably not! Am I paranoid? Who knows! Am I now making money again? Yes!

    I'm doing well with my publisher account lately but my affiliate account is slow the past few days. Could just be normal statistical fluctuations though. Try not to let these daily ups and downs get you crazy.

    I'm not sad because I didn't make sales for 3 days, I'm sad because I don't know whether the efforts I'm about to put in will be useless or not.I want to promote more but I really don't know if I'm loosing sales out.Today, morning still stuck at 0, its really abnormal, but I will wait another 2-3 days and if its still 0, then you guys tell me what I should do.

    By the way, I still have 2-3 sales for other accounts, so I'm not saying I'm screwd up but what's happening with this account ? Is this a season where sales just drop without any reason ? there is reason for everything.

    Every day is strange, if its for the good or bad. Today I started a campaign for a new product, got a nice amount of hops no sales. Meanwhile a product I stopped promoting for weeks just netted 3 sales.. It happens.

    @ cmpotato

    I feel your pain. I am seeing the exact same thing happening over 4 aff accounts i have. They all went strait zeros for 3 days now for no apparent reason. Each averaging 4-5 sales on normal days and then all of a sudden 000000000000000. Laser targeted traffic...same old daily number etc minus the sales. I'm a CB affiliate since 2003 they occesionaly had some minor problems here and there...BUT never have i seen it that bad.

    Something is terribly F%^$#$% up with their tracking system....OR IS IT?... im beginning to wonder..... i guess someone must pay thier dumb ass programers for all their latest "upgrades" and "policy changes".

    Clickbank has become absolute crap....i am well and truly sick watching what is going on knowing my hard earned commissions are being lost/stolen.

    I am currently considering filing a rip off report as we speak. Enough is enough, how could they possibly miss this crap, it's been going on for a few months now. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Can anyone please send clickbank a link to this thread and request them to create an account and make a post so we all know what's happening ? Those who have been with clickbank for 1 year+ knows that what's happening with me is not at all normal.I have been getting 1-10 sales for more than 2 months, and no single sales for 3 days is very abnormal.

    What's good if they upgrade things like:

    *Changing "Publisher" to "Vendor"

    *Extending TIDs to 24 Characters

    *ClickBank's Powerful New Affiliate Tool: HopAd Builder

    and they don't repair the "0's out of no where" tracking problems which is the most important thing to work on.If the servers are old then replace them, if programmers are dull, then replace them, but do SOMETHING !
