    Now I know i really haven't given it much effort to do these things but some of the offers i was promoting were just simple zip info submits or email submits, 120 clicks later no leads.

    I need someone to test out one of my ads for me pm me ill send you 1$ or what ever if you want Something sounds really fishy, and no its not the url in my sig although i've gotten like 20-30 clicks from those and those never converted either.

    if someone could go through that site and try one offer that would be great. If its not working what do i do? I really think somethings wrong or i am doing something totally wrong like sending them to a wrong url or something..

    Instead of offering us money to "test it out" (which is against the rules if the offer is not incentivized), why not just bring the problem up with your AM? They can test it out...and their goal is to help you get conversions and make money so that they in turn make money.

    99% that your offer don't track leads (it is problem of all networks with email/zip offers).
    test this offer by yourself and i sure, it will not track.

    There are about a 100 things that can cause this. Start working with your AM until you figure it out.

    AM - Affiliate Manager.
    killafawk, contact your AM, but i don't think, he can do anything with this. It is really advertiser's scam and it is the biggest problem of all affiliate networks.

    Zip/E-mail offers don't convert very well because the advertiser's scam like the guy said above, that being said some zip offers convert very well sometimes 30% you just have to pick and choose your offers. I tend to stay away from the offers anyways

    Some zip/email submits don't convert after the initial submission but only after the lead goes through another or several more "offer" pages. Check with your AM to know when the conversion occurs.

    You could've just IMed me man; you know I'd help you.

    120 clicks and no conversions? Depending on the offer, that seems pretty normal. Offers usually start evening out over 1000 clicks.

    Hit me up and we'll figure it out.

    120 clicks with no conversions for a simple zip fill out doesn't make any sense. I've experienced something similar with NeverBlueAds... It makes me just want to ignore these types of pay per lead programs altogether. It seems they do not pay. What I don't get is how they expect to keep any affiliates? Are there always new ones coming in? Personally when I don't see a return from something, I just move on. There's too many programs that really do pay to waste your time with the ones that don't.
