The "Ghost" Sale on Clickbank

Kael41 · 12-18-2008, 09:37 AM

Anyone ever get these random sales in clickbank for a product that you have NO memory of ever promoting? Not that I'm complaining, mind you, it's just that I *think* it may be from a marketing campaign from years ago. Lol..i have no idea how to track where it came from

I get sales like this all the time from just regular websites I published when I started online. Unfortunately I didn't put very good tracking methods in place or document what I did, so I get random sales often!

You can use trackers (like: Google Analytics) that tells you from people are coming to your site.
It's very useful to understand which sources are working and which not.

I get these sometimes, mainly from when I was using Yahoo Answers. The best site tracking tool I have used is Sitemeter.com (get the free version) I don't even see why people would need to buy the premium on this because it is so good. It even tells if your visitors clicked an affiliate link.
