My product has been out for months, and I have only had one serious affiliate. How is it that today, I am getting 4-5 other affiliates that are sending in 100+ hops??? Do you think it could be because of the new HopAdBuilder? Whatever it is, I am SUPER happy.
Who knows man, maybe someone came across with your product and used it as an example for something and presented it to his IM'ers list.... who knows!
There are several sites (CB Engine is one, but there are others) that take Clickbank's daily XML feed and integrate it into their site. When people check out Clickbank products thorugh there, they would show up in your metrics. Also it could be that these sites do some kind of automatic check of Clickbank products on a regular basis, which would affect your metrics. I really don't know the details of this - but I believe there are a couple of owners who participate in this forum who might be able to give better info.
maybe you reached some sort of gravity point where others suddenly became interested? ok,maybe not if you've only had 1 serious affiliate ... but yeah ... maybe google was good to you or something and affiliates found your product easier?
I imagine its coming from the new hoplinks ad serving programme. Could be that you have set some nice keywords for your product that the new affiliates are adding in their hoplink ads.
