DLGUARD PRO Is Ready!

33 replies
When do I get to hear those magic words?

Seriously... I imagine Sam is busy working on it, so I don't want to bug him directly, but I am just wondering if anyone has heard anything about this next release.

It was about six months ago that I was told "hopefully in about six months".

I've been waiting to check out the new affiliate program that is built into it.

    Heh, I saw the title to this thread, and I'm thinking, "What? When? Have I just finished it in some kind of programming trance?"

    It is coming along well - I don't like to give dates because I'd much rather release the product when it's ready, rather than rushing it to meet a deadline and release sub-standard results (ie. what a lot of game companies are doing these days).

    Basically what's happening - I'm adding a full blown affiliate program to DLGuard. Not just a little affiliate tracking module, but a full on integrated affiliate program.

    It's a TONNE of work to get this to the point where I'd be happy to release it.

    For those that know me, I don't like to release "me too" kind of software. I want mine to be way ahead of the competition, and so that's what I'm crafting DLGuard Pro to be.

    Thanks so much for everyone's interest - I'm glad I'm not doing this massive upgrade for nothing

    cheers

      I'm looking forward to it Sam.

      Do those of us who own DLGuard (and other products of yours) get some sort of discount?

      I've been looking for something superior to host interior affiliate programs with the ease of use your scripts have.

      Not saying the stuff out there is bad, some is actually pretty good, but I'll definitely take a look at what you have to offer.

    When Sam DOES release it, it WILL be great! Sam isn't the kind of person that releases something filled with bugs to make a few fast dollars - can you say Microsoft - and then come back issue a patch! When it is ready to go don't worry Sam will tell us!

    Thanks for the support Chuck

    Maxy is going well! He's actually teething at the moment, but he's being a little trooper about it. So there was some lack of sleep for a little bit, but he's going well now.

    He'll have four, possibly five teeth soon. He's decided to do it all in one go, it seems

    cheers

    Hey Sam, great product man, nice to put a picture to a name. Thanks for the help and support you gave for my video guide to profits site when I was having brain farts big time with your software... still patiently waiting for the DLGuard Pro to be released.

    BTW, how's the little one getting on. Good I hope.

    Sam I LOVE dlg. LOVE it.

    I will love it even more and may actually ask it to marry me once it has an affiliate program built in.

    Why?

    Because for more than a year my customers have asked me for an affiliate program for my PLR Mini Mart and I didn't know how. Once your system is ready, it'll be a snap to implement and my sales should soar even more!

    So HURRY Sam!! HURRY!

    John D.,

    I'm soooo glad you brought this up. I was wondering if Sam was going to add something like this in future updates.


    Sam,

    Basically what's happening - I'm adding a full blown affiliate program to DLGuard. Not just a little affiliate tracking module, but a full on integrated affiliate program.
    No kidding? YES!

    Now that is some of the best news I heard (or seen) for a few months.

    Btw, I had a nephew who did the same as Maxy when he first started teething. Lol he got his molars earlier too.

    Please add special options like "lc=us" also for memberships! I just see that if i create a recurring payment membership using DLG i dont have that option to set default-language for the payment page.

    I need to set this otherwise people get to a german page .)

    You have this feature in the "normal" payment options, tho.

    Btw...could not live without DLG, best tool ever!

      Hope it has the functionality that allows you to dictate how long an affiliate has to wait before getting paid, and some way of flagging affiliates accounts for suspicious activity like cookie stuffing.

        You can PM me if you want? But what's "cookie stuffing". I know what a "cookie" is, but how do affiliates stuff it?

        TIA

        Ps Will we have to pay for the upgrade?

    Wow, I'm glad there's so much interest in it!

    Considering the HUGE amount of work that has gone into it, this'll help me sleep better at night, knowing I haven't squandered the past many months of my programming life.


    Btw, I had a nephew who did the same as Maxy when he first started teething. Lol he got his molars earlier too.
    Maxy is doing the same - I think we can see a tiny dot where one of his molars is coming up now as well. Poor little fella is not having a good time at all!

    WOW! More than his uncle Chuck!
    Haha - I'm sure that'll make him proud


    Please add special options like "lc=us" also for memberships!
    Thats going into DLGuard Standard - both versions will still be developed

    I'll also be adding multiple thankyou page templates for memberships as well.



    Hope it has the functionality that allows you to dictate how long an affiliate has to wait before getting paid, and some way of flagging affiliates accounts for suspicious activity like cookie stuffing.
    Yes, you'll have a number of payment cycle options - Weekly, twice a month, once a month. This should cover most bases!

    Good idea about the flagging of affiliates - I'll look into that one!


    Do those of us who own DLGuard (and other products of yours) get some sort of discount?
    Yes, you sure will! Initially there'll be a nice discount that will be cheaper than the retail price difference.

    I like to take care of current clients - without you all, I'm unemployed...and I don't forget that

    Sam, as a long time supporter/client of yours, I stand waiting with baited breath for your next masterpiece.

    As a side note... In honor of Maxy (and you the nonstop workaholic father), I think you should consider renaming DLG to "Samson's DLG". It subtly denotes the strength of the historical figure Samson, yet it also relates to the combination of you and Maxy (Sam-son). Not trying to imply anything religious here, just thinking of you as a proud father and Maxy.

    Hi Paul,

    Heh, Samson's DLG - has a nice ring to it

    I could then change the logo icon to a picture of a donkey's jaw.

    As a side note, Maxy is finally trying to crawl! He's been up on his hands and knees a few times today, rocking back and forth. He only commando crawls at the moment, but it's looking like he'll be mobile soon!

    Hi Sam

    Will there be a feature with performance related bonuses?

    For example:

    For the first 10 sales an affiliate gets a 50% commission.

    Once they've made 10 sales their commission goes up to 60% automatically.

    Once they've made 50 sales they're commissions go up to 70% automatically.

    Any chance of this?

    Thanks,
    James

    Haha, thanks for the reminder, John! You're right, Q1 is coming to a close REALLY quickly. It's causing me no end of sleepless nights!

    That's why you don't see me around the forum as much at the moment - too busy knocking out code.



    Hi George!

    I'm thinking of offering a plugin for this - the problem with broadcast features is that most people using DLGuard are using shared web hosting, and generally speaking, shared hosts don't allow you to email that many people. I think Hostgator shared hosting, for example, has a limit of about 500 emails per day.

    If I offer it as a "standard" feature, then I'll have to explain to some people that their host simply doesn't allow this. If I offer is as a plugin, then at least then I can tell people to check with their host before they buy it.

    Does that make sense?



    Hi James,

    That's a really good idea! Currently no, I don't have that built in, but I've just made a note of it. I may not make the first Pro release (as mentioned above, Q1 is ending too fast for my liking ), but I'll definately add it in.

    cheers

      Yes, makes sense.

      I just hate to export my list and then use another program for this. The technical limitations of sending mails with a hoster shall not really be your problem then - but at least having the functionality would be great.

      Also..we could have the option to specify whatever SMTP host.
