I thought something was strange. I just had articles go live today and was getting a ton of targeted clicks and no sales. I hope if sales were made they are credited when they get this problem fix.

Well, i dont know you but a big fat 0 sales during that period is not a "SMALL problem", Well actually that would be a "SMALL" Problem but when you take in consideration the thousands of PPC that were just thrown in the wind thats not "SMALL". According to my stats it lasted betwen 12.00 till 21.00, and thats around 9 hours during the peak period of the day. If you think thats "SMALL" i dont know whats "BIG"... Well anyways I was hoping that clickbank would state the exact period of the downtime but no luck, i guess that whenever the downtime is so extended they dont issue a time period, and when they do they minimize and tell that its kind of just a few mintues,,,oh yeh! It's very frustrating, clickbank, a multi-million company that act like an ameture startup....The power of leverage, if it wasnt for their huge affiliate base who would believe that clickbank is so profitable..... Peace...
PPC is too dangerous with Clickbank.....You just don't feel confident about their "system and "tracking".
Well see, that's the difference between us. For you it's a big problem and for me it's not. Things like that happen and they will continue to happen if you do have an emotional reaction to them or not. Yeah, peace
Thats great :/ Stupid Clickbank why can't they be more professional and actually sort out their problems. Listen to us!!!
I had three good days up to yesterday with over $400, then absolutely nothing yesterday. I thought at last things with CB were improving and then this crap happens again. Soooo frustrating.
No doubt about that, but thats not the point. A 9 hour downtime is a huge issue across board regardingless of the amount of sales that you and me lost...
I just checked and its supposed to be up. It's all green in http://www.clickbank.com.xohost.com/status.php and also went to the order page of one of the products i'm promoting and its up. I'm activating my PPC. I'm looking to switch to paydotcom.com because I can't stand the stress of these clickbank issues... (Just hope that paydotcom.com doesn't have them also), I just havent had the time to update my landing pages.
I am located in Germany and clickbank ist still completely down for me. (clickbank.com - clickbank.net)
Wow, I didn't know this. On Jan. 5th I did almost $1,000 in sales, then yesterday the 6th I had 0 orders from abroad and only $150 in sales. Today so far 0, and I've been doing about $400 daily. What a joke.
I have great news! The problem processing sales has NOT effected their ability to process refunds. Already three so far...
