MediaTraffic & Cookie stuffing, really?

by FredFarnes

I found a pdf file that talks about the different CPV/PPV advertising options
http://qhealth.com/affiliates/QHealt...Guide-0807.pdf

On page 16 is talks about MediaTraffic and it says;
"Steals affiliate tracking code and replaces it with their own (cookie stuffing)"

Does that mean there will not be any CPA revenue, or ClickBank, CJ, whatever?

Why advertise with them if this is the case?

Anyone here have experience with MediaTraffic, are they stealing your income, or you're not have problems?

    That guide is many years old and was inaccurate from the start.

    I have been using Media Traffic for about a year and have never had a problem with them stealing campaigns. I have some set and forget campaigns that net the same revenue every month.

    Regards,

    John

    ps - I would throw that guide in the trash to avoid further confusion.

        Thanks for the feedback. It did seem totally weird. I know some advertisers to employ unethical strategies, but would not expect the entire network to sabotage itself to that degree..

        So, you want to sell me another way to easily make "X" dollars in "X" days? ROFL too funny! IM success requires hard work and lots of time. Most newbies do not survive the steep learning curve. Anyone who says otherwise is probably selling you a fantasy.

    They only steal your successful campaign( not all) and do their own bidding.
    In fact all of them are doing this, not to those that are starting up but more to those that are super affiliates-siphoning maybe 10% of their total income. Trust me they(super affiliates) don't even know it. They are grateful earning $500-$1000 perday.
    How many super affiliates do you think there are in every network?

      I work with plenty of networks I am 100% sure are not jacking what I do. If you cannot trust them to work with you and not against you then you need to find one that will.

      I would be more concerned about getting landing pages stolen from other affiliates in my niche. I have systems in place to prevent that though.
