Anyone ever feel like your clickthroughs are not accurate?

    I just started using CJ. I use a CMS and I have a system on it that tracks all of my links for CJ. So I know when someone has clicked on a link. There seems to be a significant difference in the amount of clicks I am showing through my CMS and the amount shown on the reports on CJ. Has anyone else experienced this?

    About 1/3rd of all affiliate links will drop cookies due to browsers, security software, the user or just errors.

    CJ's use of cookies is mediocre at best. But you have no choice as they didn't invent the cookie. Sometimes their servers can be really slow and the pages don't always load.

    Lots of reasons why.
