Bad Advertisers!!!! Very Bad!

I recently am getting more active as a publisher again (most of my time spent is being an advertiser) but I am getting really fraking mad!

I just went through like 50+ offers across 3 networks and personally tried to confirm the conversion points, here is what I found:

1. Offers redirected to other offers so they were closed or the GEO was set wrong. (This was on all three networks).

2. Offer just did not track, I completed it for sure, even called someone on the phone and had them try some of these because I really liked a few of them. Didn't convert for them either.

3. Conversion occurred but not where stated. Why would you label an email submit 3rd page if its not 3rd page? Just label it email submit, no point in making the specific distinction if its not true. Other example is offer is labeled lead, CPL, but at the end of the pathway there is a purchase offer that I assume is the conversion, this means it should be a CPS PURCHASE OFFER!

4. Landing pages triggered Google warning for malware or other internet security issues with some pages having auto downloads (one was not even a downloadable software offer and it was trying to install who knows what!).

It's just really aggravating! I would be ashamed at myself if any of my offers were ever in a shape like this!!!! and affiliate networks, clean out the junk, makes you look bad!
