Me too. I paused all my adwords campaigns so at least if I'm not earning, it's not costing me anything. Not cool, CJ. Not cool.
I thought maybe they canceled my account or something. omg It's a shame because I was running adwords and paid for a few clicks while the links were down.
Where is the thread? Can you post the link? I just found out that all the banners and text links on my site are down. What's going on???
"Malfunction Junction" MicroMag you cracked me up! Here is a techy explanation from a guy that thinks he knows how to fix it. In case they've never heard of him and have not seen his blog maybe they check here and will see this post. "Commission Junction's DNS Servers Misconfigured Odd request, but this might percolate out over Technorati: I discovered that Commission Junction's DNS is misarranged so that the domains they use for affiliate program tracking and redirection are failing. I called Akamai, which handles their DNS, because CJ lacks good contact information on their site. Akamai looked into it and said that there was a change, but it was made by CJ, and thus they can't modify it. So I'm posting this in the hopes that someone associated with Commission Junction or its Valueclick division will get it and drop me email at glenn AT glennf.com so I can explain what's wrong. I'll remove this post when things are fixed. (CJ manages affiliate programs for ecommerce sites with publishers. My isbn.nu site uses CJ for several bookstores. When you see a price result on my site and click, that redirects through a unique combination of CJ domains, to reach the right page on the right destination site. The DNS is set up such as that a domain like www.qksrv.net is a CNAME (canonical name or alias) to cjtrack.valueclick.akadns.net. But cjtrack.valueclick.akadns.net. has no A (address) record associated, which means the redirect fails but good.)" http://blog.glennf.com/mtarchives/006743.html
I think I was sleeping when this happened,,,, I probably lost a few bucks or so oh well... I did notice the delay on commissions today tho.
There is no commission recorded after 3M this afternoon. Anybody experiencing the same problem? Does this has anything to do with the links broken down yesterday?
