Are clicks from POF reliable?

by DavidLasry

I started to run my campaigns at POF and I've noticed that I got some clicks there but I can't find any records of them in my Prosper202.
The link works fine but apparently I'm missing something here.

Anyone ever had this problem before?

    When you click on the links yourself, are they showing up on Prosper?

      Yes! That's what I'm trying to tell you. There is something going on with POF but I don't know if it's just me.

    Working fine with me. Give it some time, maybe some maintenance issue.

      While I don't know if anyone else has experienced anything like this in the past, I personally believe that POF at times can have "empty clicks" - tracking software might say 15 but POF will tell you 22 or something like that. I've tested this theory with multiple tracking software programs and I have yet to ever find it to be exact. With that said however, it's never to an amount that will totally mess up your campaigns.

    How many clicks are we talking?
    Are you on shared hosting?

      I'm talking about something like 10-12 unregistered clicks.
      Yes, I'm on shared hosting but before you guys shout "BUY VPS" I need to say that when I was direct linking to an offer from PeerFly using POF, everything was fine. Every click was shown on P202 and I got all the info I wanted, include the variables I inserted(age, state, creativeid). It all changed when I started to use LP for my offer but still, I had some clicks shown on P202 but it wasn't how I expected.

      One intresting theroy that I've found is that maybe the problem stems from the JS code in my LP. I inserted the JS code at the bottom of the HTML code, right above the </body> tag. The theroy says that because I'm on shared hosting, maybe the JS code of P202 isn't loaded and pixel doesn't fire properly. It means the the visitor leaves the page before the JS code is loaded. Therefore, the data isn't sent to the platform and the click isn't registered.

      I'm planning to test that theory by placing the JS code in the <head> tag insted place it above the </body> tag.

      I want you guys to tell me what do you think about this.

      Beyond Hosting is so overrated lol. Go with knownhost.
      POF is legit, it would really surprise me if their were sending fraud clicks.
