    Hey anyone else having problems with Auctionads reporting system, my account shows clicks and impressions but no income earned which is weird for over a week now. Anyone know if they are going to fix the problem or whats going on with them.

    Should I waste any time promoting them anymore or what?

    Yeah...tell me about it!

    I am just going crazy....every time i want to view the report...its either down or not showing properly. And when I email the support they dont reply..!

    If they cant really handle so many publishers..why are they accepting publishers like crazy?

    I already removed them and created my own script to use the E-Bay referral system through CJ. If you want to see my version of Auction Ads that doesn't rely on third party server, check this site out...

    http://www.bestnewcarbuying.com

    It's just a test site to use Ebay API + Ajax programming based on the PeachRSS parser I coded... If anybody's interested in getting in on the beta, PM me for more info...

    I'm getting rid of them, my AuctionAds earnings have nose dived ever since those problems they had. I'm going to look into the CJ ebay program instead.

    I have just gotton rid of AuctionAds from over 100K pages. I noticed a huge dip in Adsense and found the site was loading slower than normal - no AuctionAds - the AuctionAds site is down as well - VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.

    Seriously, it takes all of 5 minutes to set a CNAME record in DNS so that your main site address is always available - for informational purposes at least.

    You should spend your time responding to your customer's pms and messages!
    I still have no response from you after repeated messages.

    auctionads reporting system is always down. Maybe we should make posts when its not. I pulled their ads too. Auctionads B.S reporting = Dead horse How pissed would you be if you bought that company right now.

    I've also dropped them, as they were causing my pages to load slowly.

    Too bad, as I thought I'd make great money with them seeing that I had reasonably good initial success.

    yes, seen a few clicks for the last 2-3 weeks! but no payment, the blog is reciving more than 300+ hits! i guess with all the impressions and clicks if no money is generated then it is better to switch to some other ads network, so i left auction ads!:eek:

    You say that like they keep us updated :rolleyes: </sarcasm>

    Seriously, as long as they are not giving us any information, it does not really matter if the main page is up...in fact, I check the main page more then I check my ads, so having them down together is, in a way, a nifty way to tell if my ads are running...as sad as that is.

    Thats great, and no stupid "AuctionADS" tag anywhere that can blend in amazingly. I also assume bigger payout since there would be no middle man involved. PM me I'd be interested in Beta Testing it.

    Stats are NOT fixed. I had my AA account open the whole afternoon yesterday and refreshed from time to time. All of a sudden i had some extra amount for a specific day in september. +USD20 or so. When i checked about 3-4 hours later, it not just was back to normal, no it was reduced by 10USD.

    Dont they ever tell me they have no reporting issues..

    I give them one more month, then i am out.

    Oh great! Now my sites are full of ugly error messages again. These guys are the Keystone Cops of affiliate programs.
