Further suspicions about CB tracking... or maybe someone stuffed my cookies?

    Ok, I hate starting this thread because I usually hate whining or watching people whine. But maybe I'm missing something in this picture and someone out there can help, so here goes...

    In the past couple of weeks, I've noticed some of my landing posts keep getting a few dozen views every now and then. However, the corresponding campaigns never registered hops:

    After day 1, not a single hop from three different campaigns each promoting a different product, even though the respective landing posts received a couple hundred visitors.

    Yeah, maybe my pre-sale is way off and those posts just aren't doing a good job of funneling visitors over to the sales page, right? That's what I thought, as well.

    Until yesterday I decided to click-through to the order forms myself to see if something was out of place. Everything looked right (down to my aff code in the bottom of the order form), but today when I check CB stats... no hops whatsoever.

    So... what gives?

    Hm... days behind, really? I thought it would be a few hours at most. Well, it's been about 18 hours since I clicked to the order form, and it still doesn't show in the analytics. :-/

    Yeah the new analytics updates have been awful. For Oct and Nov some times it was a 24 hour gap or more.

    So yeah its not just you... its on them. Which sucks for those of us who are a bit nuts about liking to watch those little numbers increase heh.

    I suggest you wait a bit longer. This new analytic takes a really long time to update. Give it at least 25 to 30 hours. or even more depending on the day.

    What i noticed is that some days, the stats update more often than other days.

    You can also check when the last analytic update was made. The info is situated at the left had side of the analytic's page.

    A couple days ago i had three or four days in a row without sales. I was shocked because right now my Cb sales are being great and i HARDLY have any gaps in sales anymore.

    I check the next day, and all of a sudden the days where it said i didn't make anything have been filled...so there is a delay in tracking without a doubt. Eg. it said i didnt make sales on Thursday and Friday, and on Sunday i saw sales booked for Thursday/Friday! Its not always real-time, it could also be delays with paypal/CC companies..etc..etc..

    Strange issues you are facing guys. My analytics page is updated every 4 hours and is very accurate. Got a sale today so no problems for me.

    stats lag... thats clickbank. how many threads do people have to read and start before they just accept the fact that stats lag.

    Now if your stats are tracking wrong and your losing 50+ sales a day, then start a thread.
