How many sales are ALL Affiliates losing?
I dont mean by anything dodgy, but simply by someone else winning the cookie race.
For example, someone could read your review of a product which convinces them to buy it. Then do a google search for a special offer and click through with someone elses link even though the prices are the same. Or they could decide to read one more review and eventually just click through the other persons review even though they found your one most helpful.
Or you could convince someone to buy something but they only buy after your cookie has expired.
So I was wondering if anyone had an idea of how many sales affiliates will lose to this type of thing? I guess it confirms that its best to be a vendor then an affiliate as it doesnt matter whos cookie is used as you make money either way.
