Since the switch over, I have about 15% more clicks per day. However, my sales are down about 50%. Any one else seeing the same thing? Anyone's sales at or above what they were on CJ?
I'm so down. I use to get a steady $40-$60 day.. now I'm getting around $5/day. All sites showing clicks.. I think everything is tracking fine on my end. Also, I haven't seen any ACRUs come in. I have two CRUs, but that's it.. which is unusual as well. We just need to ride the storm out. hanji
Perhaps I've been a little more fortunate so far. My ACRUs have doubled, but commissions are down by about a third. So, my revenues have remained consistent with my CJ performance, but with a different profile. While EPN maintains that there is absolutely nothing wrong with tracking and reporting, there are legions of people reporting drastic shortfalls compared with their pre-changeover experience. There has to be a reason for this, particularly where people are seeing the same or more in impressions and clicks. EPN's fallback position is still cookie lag, even where that clearly is no longer an issue. Even though I haven't had the falloff others have seen, it still makes me wonder.
Wow.. double ACRUs? I've yet to receive one in ePN. To me, that's a big indicator that something is wrong (in my case).. since I have a pretty steady ACRU count in general. I do have CRUs (only 2) in ePN, but that seems like they're tracking at least though. I normally have way more CRUs as well. hanji
Yeah, hopefully they will realize that there is something wrong is they track global ePC numbers in their system and those numbers happen to be down from what is standard or average. In the meantime all u can do is keep voicing the concern until they find somethin...but eBay is good to make things good when they finally find issues. Also they are human after all even if its a multibillion dollar corporation...soo they're bound to make mistakes. Its how they handle them when they find these mistakes which is really important.
They added a lot of sales to my account at CJ for March that were missing, apparently. i.e. there was a "make good". However, it was unannounced, and I've been unable to find any official references to it anywhere from eBay. We can hope they do the right thing based on this sort of experience. But, can't they be a little more transparent about things?
It is driving me nuts so far. I have only changed out my sidebar ads and new posts with the epn code. Old posts are still running Ebay/CJ. I have made twice as much on less clicks with Ebay/CJ. Also, this is trending to be my worst month in nearly a year. Put me in the not happy camp.
The click tracking is seriously off. Check out the ePN message boards. This is a well known issue, although I guess Ebay refuses to acknowledge it. I started on CJ in March and made about $500 in my first month. I'm on track to do about the same with ePN this month.
Yah!!! Made $1.11 for yesterday. It's sad when I'm making more money with AdSense again. Serenity Now.. Serenity Now. hanji
I also had a couple days where adsense made more than EPN. Sales are starting to trickle in. And no new ACRU's. Doh!
its so screwed up, had about 20 acrus in cj last month, and 3 so far this month, clicks/impressions are all over the board, earnings though are about the same all said, but you can definately tell the stats are off
I hear ya man. I'm in exactly the same boat. My EPN income is way down from my eBay/CJ earnings. I'm giving it until the end of May, then I'm looking for a new sugar mama.
