So Far No Updates From Direct Track!! Is It GONE?

19 replies
According both DirectTrack and it’s customers, DirectTrack has suffered a massive failure to its entire system, that has no “immediately resolution.” Those in the industry first attributed this to server severe Denial of Service Attack, but recent emails between the customers and networks show that the failure is much more serious.

You know what does this mean?

Networks using Direct track as their tracking platform are facing a very serious issue and if you are one of their Affiliates then you seriously NEED an Alternative ASAP and need to stop sending your Traffic to them real QUICK!

Networks relying on DT's tracking platform will not be able to track your traffic and if you are sending your traffic to them then let me tell you " YOU ARE WASTING YOUR MONEY AND TIME ON THEM "

You don't know when they will be up again and if you think they will be back in 5 or 10 mins then seriously you could loose your $$$$'s as well as you will regret for this mistake!

We wanted to just take a moment and inform our publishers that our system is working great with no Issues at all and we are live. We have 600+ offers available and will do what we can to help you out so you are not losing money to a "DEAD" landing page.

    I could share a story, but I won't.

    Let's just say I am not at all surprised by their behaviour in NOT dealing with this huge issue.

    Samrath,

    You stole this article from Pace, and just added your advertising to your new and unreliable network.. And it seems like you ignored Pace's first comment about stealing HIS article.

    I thought people from India believed in Karma...

        I don't know why anyone still uses DT,

        My favorite 3 are

        1 - path action - cause it is totally configurable and you can build it to your look not the tracking platforms look unless you pay a arm and leg. And every thing i have asked for so far has been done with in 24 hrs.

        2 - Link trust - I use a lot of companies that use them and never had any issues.

        3 - Hasoffers, Remove their open door to scam networks with the free month and they are actually very reliable.

        Now i was going after Cake at first as well, and personally i believe they have good tracking and i was told by a few that have cake they do not even have a global postback, Every one has that wth. I am trying to get more incentive offers and a lot use in house platforms that only allow global postbacks so imo cake would be useless there until they add this feature that EVERYONE else has.

          Its because of its Simplicity Which always attracts me...

    I'm guessing they pulled one of the things they do to the wrong guys.

    Who then decided to knock them out for a while.

    Does some CPA network still uses direct track right now? If yes, stop sending traffic to them.

    2012 is for Cake Marketing! Haha.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Latest update from DT: DirectTrack - Scheduled Maintenance

    "Thursday afternoon (CST), Digital River experienced an abrupt and extremely rare hardware malfunction that impacted a disk array in one of our data centers. Our vendors have never seen a situation like this before.As a result, some of our service areas have been impacted, including the services to the platform that supports your DirectTrack system. As a result, your system is unable to be accessed or process transactions at this time. We anticipate this will be the case until the hardware problem has been fixed.
    We have all our best technical experts working along with our vendors top engineers - and they are doing everything possible to fix the problem as quickly as possible. To keep you up to date on our progress, we plan to provide regular updates throughout the day."


    Anyway, hope they will back up soon!
