My experience with MaxBounty

    I thought I'd share with you my experience with MaxBounty affiliate network.

    Two months ago I decided to start my "free iPod" type site. I evaluated different networks, as CJ isn't really well-suited for such site (and their commissions are low). I came up with a list of 4: IncentAClick, Clickbooth, MaxBounty and Hydra Network. Of these, Hydra denied my application and was not very responsive to my emails. I also read on ABestweb some complaints about payment problems from IncentAClick and Clickbooth. So I decided to try MaxBounty first and here's my experience so far:

    There are several offers available for me which allowed incentivization and matched my site. The payouts are also a little bit higher than those of competing sites. The tracking is real-time, and they have a nice downloadable CSV reports with sub-ID tracking (which I incorporated quite easily into my site).

    But the best thing I found about them is the support. I have my account represantive available almost every day on AIM. I frequently bombard them with requests and they were always friendly and did their best to help me. Once a merchant did not credit me for several sales, because they had some tracking problems, and they simply credited me for $200 for all these sales based just on forwarding them sales confirmation emails. Emails are always answered, usually within 1 day.

    My only complaint is that they pay NET 30 and not NET 15 as some other competing networks. But apart from that, I'm really satisfied and impressed with their service.

    That's kind of strange. She's my AM at MaxBounty. Although I don't make much with them (few offers fit my niche) she and the other people there have been impressive in how responsive they are. Much different than most other networks.

    So what's this "fake signature" thing about? Or this another case of mod abuse on DP?

    When Jessica joined DP, she did not have access to the signature block in her profile. So to make sure everyone knew who she was, she manually added her signature to each of her posts. Just her name, and MB's domain.

    One day, a moderator decided that was unacceptable and back-edited every single one of Jessica's past posts and for each one that was back-edit, Jessica was hit with a violation. Because there were about 20 previous posts, and 20 violations her account was hit with a 3 month ban.

    Funny thing is that she was answering a very specific question and not just doing blatant promotion of MaxBounty when the moderator decided her "fake" signature was inappropriate.

    Once her ban is lifted, she'll be back - with a proper signature in her profile. :)

    Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

    A year old...sorry......My apologies......My problems are with Max Bounty Now! I have been trying in vain to get an answer from them as to why my account has been shut down? I do not run an incentive site...nor do Credit Card offers....so I am sitting here in the dark as I have the foggest idea of how I generated fraud leads and for what? Could somebody there at Max Bounty please answer this for me?

    Well...I guess I start off all I have to say with a "Well"...LOL. No seriously, my time with Max Bounty has been a pleasure! I have spoken with Steve from Max Bounty via email and I have found out the nature of my problems with them. Steve was very polite, giving me a chance to explain my side of the problem...which by the way I thought was totally awesome of him! Bless Him!
    There is no reason to hold anger over this company, what was done has been done, and there "ain't" no going back. All the blame will lay on me, as it should. I try not to "air" to many of my problems and "misgivings" out in public, but chose to take a more private route with whom I have to deal with. I fully understand Max Bounty's stand on this, and will uphold their decision....God Bless Ya'll and I wish ya'll nothing but Good Fortune in all you partake. Max Bounty is a good company to affilate with!.....Chow..............;)
