    Shawn,

    One of the things that I keep wondering is if any of the people I am marketing to are having any problems with completing the sign-up and validation process however, I don't know if any of them actually signed up.

    Is there a way to put something in the adminitrative interface that states who signed up under our ID?.

    This way we can tell who signed up and did not complete the validation process or if they are having trouble, etc etc etc.

    Just a suggestion

    Just click on the Referrals link.

    From what I know the referred sites will only show in your adminitrative interface if they're weight is above zero i.e. the site has begun running ads and is validated.

    Showing all sign-ups, validated or other-wise would be a good addition, and I think this is what the thread starter had in mind.

    The referrals link just shows the people that already have signed up and been validated.

    I want to know who signed up through the link that has not validated yet. This will give me the oppurtunity to see why they signed up but did not complete the validation process. If they don't validate then we get no referral bonus.

    For all I know I could have 500 people under me right now however they all thought it was too hard to get the ads up and running so they stopped it and are not planning on coming back to it...

    If I knew who that was I could send them an e-mail asking them if they are having any trouble.

    That is an excellent idea, there are a lot of people who want to join but then have trouble getting started and just place it in the two hard basket.

    Now that I think of it... it sounds like a good idea. Maybe even put an option, something like "allow new referals to email you", so when someone signs up using your link they get sent an email with your contact info in case they have any trouble setting the code up.

    A few of the people that I have signed up have never heard of DP. They didn't even know there was a forum and they totally missed the obvious visit the forum link within the admin.

    As a result they didn't sign up or finish the sign up process. It wasn't until I sent them a second e-mail about DP that they responded to my e-mail and asked for help.

    A second scenario. Another person I signed up came to the forums and posted a post about ASP code and hers not working.

    She was never responded to.

    Therefore she never signed up until I again sent her another e-mail about DP and then she said she needed help however could not get it from the forums.

    My question is how many other people have I signed up that are having problems that just never completed the validation process or couldn't get the ads running on their website and therefore just quit.

    There are loads of people that come here asking for help and never get an answer. Or they do get one, but they still can't figure it out.

    My effort here should be the answer to the most frequently asked questions.

    The only questions I've ever seen unanswered were unsupported platform installs. M$ won't help me setting up Office on Linux Mandrake either will they?

    Others left unasnwered were plain silly and answered a billion times before. Hence me putting this new FAQ.

    I didn't see her post either. I think she may have posted in one of those ASP threads that had 90 posts in it already. I didn't see any new posts... however the point is she felt like her post was unanswered and therefore stopped putting up the ads on her website until I just happened to send her another e-mail. It would have been a lot easier if there was something in the admin that let me know that she signed up in the first place and then I could look back a week later and see that she had not finished the sign up process. I could then send her an e-mail and ask if she needed help instead of waiting for me to send out a second e-mail to her about it.

    Off the subject top30 can you pm with information on your sig. I have went to the website and wrote to the people asking how I can help but received no response. I am interested in who I can write or where I can vote to stop the drug companies from going through Codex to take over the supplements as they have done in 3 different countries already.
