http://digg.com/tech_news/Commission_Junction_Screw_Affiliates_Out_of_Valid_Earnings Lesson for all affiliate programs out there. The good ones support and help their affiliates ( like azoogle, maxbounty, cpaempire ), seems that CJ just want to have you drop your pants and take it !
why didnt you just link directly to the source? http://www.shoemoney.com/2006/12/01...tart-reversing-paid-out-commissions-on-yahoo/
I spent hundreds at adwords with precisely targeted ads and what CJ gave me was a joke. One of the affiliates offered % + tiny bonus... I got the 10c bonus but some how not the commission and that was it. Ridiculous. Anyone else think shoe should start his own affiliate program, one we can trust? Or maybe DP should do it.
It's a hell of a lot of money to get screwed with. To him it may not be a massive blow to his earnings, but to some people it could be critical.
i know for sure i made some sales, but thats what i got so far: guess im stick with the other affiliate, they also have nice stamps on the envelope when the check arrives...
I don't understand this. What does it mean that CJ is reversing commissions? On a side note, I noticed that sometimes I get a lead or sale, and sometimes these either become a commission and sometimes they don't. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. Maybe time to explore a different affiliate network and see what my results are like...
I don't quite get it. Did shoe money make sales for Yahoo from using their referral links on his site. If this is the case then they can't reverse the sales unless they are fruadulent or the customers have had a refund on the products they brought. If they reverse the sales even though they were genuine then this is Fraud as getting sales is hard enough as it is and it is not just about putting a link on your site and then the sales will come to you, you spend time and money promoting these merchants products.
