POF Clicks not showing on Peerfly?

eyekantbeme · 10-17-2011, 05:45 AM

Okay, Im pretty sure I have an idea of what the answer could be, but I want to hear what you guys have to say.......so, on POF I have a few ads running and on POF theyre reported as having 1000s of clicks, yet I can only see 20 or 30 show up on my click reports in peerfly. Now some of them do go through, but most of them dont. Now is this maybe from people not letting the page load completely or what? I love POF, but I wish all those clicks were lucrative, my targetting is fine, the offers are US based and I have the Yes they have a car option enabled as well for my insurance offer. So why am I getting clicks, but not getting clicks?!

Thanks.

Jeremy

Are you using landing page or direct link ? in case you are using landing page chances are people do not click on your affiliate link and bounce back? or maybe there is some problem with your targeting ?

It was a reporting error on the ad platform, we're looking into what happened and fixing it as we speak

Here is your answer...

But it's normal to exist some discrepancy between the clicks shown on the network and the ones shown on your ad platform. It happens with FB and pretty much any other platform that allows direct linking, too. As you said, it may happen because some people don't wait until the page loads (specially if you're using a tracking system that makes the loading time even longer).

The discrepancy should be small, though. When it's too big you should pause the campaign and contact your affiliate manager to solve the issue.

Ben - is it possible to have an announcement via e-mail or via the website for POF ads to advise when issues like this arise?

eyekantbeme · 10-17-2011, 01:07 PM

Sweet, Good to know that Ben's on top of it! Yeah, itt's crazy, cuz if all those clicks went through, Id be banking, right now, Im barely hitting even :\ if that

I would like the same luxury LOL needless to say, rough morning. If you have me on FB, that's the fastest way to find out what's newest on POF!

POF Ben; Your Are On it!!

I'm so glad this was posted. Yesterday my camps displayed 49k clicks with an 8%CTR haha now this is fantasy land!! Also could not deposit any money into the accounts today!! They've been offline most of the day!

But its only temporary glad I'm not the only one. Make me nervous for a sec.

Again thank you for posting this.

There is also so called POF ad spy tools where people can scrape the ads and can click them.. That can also be the reason??

William2010 · 10-18-2011, 02:32 AM

POF ad spy tool? I ve never ever heared of this. And why would people scrape the ads, and click them? Weired

some people have their own scraper. there are many places where they charge a lot of money to use their service for big platform such as facebook.

I am having similar problem! I show 15 clicks to peerfly and 57 clicks to clickbank but on peerfly and clickbank it says zero clicks??

LukePeerFly · 02-27-2012, 09:58 AM

Your clicks on PeerFly should be reporting just as they always do. If you are seeing issues it's likely you have not copied and pasted your link correctly. Please feel free to get in touch with me and we can figure out what the issue is

rydaphotoguy · 02-27-2012, 02:42 PM

Ok I just messaged you. Now I am showing 280 clicks on ppc campaign and only 92 in peerfly with 1 conversion.
