Clickbank Link Failure

i dont have such experience but i will like to know if you regenerate thesame code for same product you promote earlier or code for similar product

Very interesting.

As I do very little in the way of affiliate marketing, I cannot shed too much light on the matter. However, there certainly are other threads on here somewhere that discuss similar things i.e. affiliate commissions suddenly stopping and then starting again after a new (if my memory serves me well) account is created. In your case, you say, after a new 'link' rather than account.

It will be interesting to hear what other Warirors say.

Will

Yes.

At least hundreds of people (and I suspect more), since at least 2007/8.

This is a very well-known situation with ClickBank. There's a huge number of threads here (though many more from 2008/9/10 than from 2011/12) in which people report the same as you, including the fact that their sales were suddenly and dramatically restored to their earlier level as soon as they substituted a new affiliate-link.

I myself have had former clients in this position. One was averaging 12 sales per day, which suddenly dropped to 0 for no apparent reason. He opened a new affiliate account, created new hoplinks and was immediately making 12/13 sales per day again.

There are, of course, far too many of these stories for them all to be confabulated, or for them to be "coincidences" or "fluctuations" as some people purport to believe.

The reality is that ClickBank occasionally has undiagnosed and unacknowledged affiliate-cookie tracking failures which (for whatever hard-to-understand reason) can clearly be remedied in this way. On one occasion that I remember, they even admitted (which doesn't come easily to them) that there'd been a temporary problem.

For what it's worth, I think it's a lot less common now than it was 3/4 years ago.
