CB purchase URL question

2 replies
Hi Warriors,

A thread that was very active regarding Click B a nk sales page 'leaks' got me thinking actually and also got me very confused as CB is not my forte, still I would like to know the answer if anyone has it, please.

The back story *insert drum roll* :p

I followed my link to a vendor's site. I then clicked to leave and got the 'don't go' free-offer pop-up. I signed up. All the while my hop link is still showing.

I click off the page and go to my email to find the welcome letter.

Clicked back through to the vendor's website and then clicked 'buy now' to see if I could spot part of my code.

Obviously I was not looking for a Hop link but something that would link me to a sale... now I'm stuck with a mighty long URL.

I have earned a little through CB before but really never paid attention. But now I am

Bottom line

How do I check I'm getting the sale registered as opposed to the vendor getting total sale?

I would be most grateful for any response because I've looked through quite a few CD threads tonight and I'm now utterly confused.

Many thanks,

V

If you ever see other ID's during research stages, it COULD be a sign that they are skimming.

      *NOTE: Some sites have rotators and scripts that generate ID's on direct traffic (not affiliate traffic just direct.com type ins or naked links to the domain), so it's a false positive. It's best to due diligence then follow up by meeting/talking to the vendor if possible, create a good rep w/them.

      We cross posted - thanks Norb. I found this just now and I feel silly for not seeing it before. But the extra info you've given is golden. Thank you so much!

    I'm almost embarressed by my own stupidity. You know I've done this a few times now - post a question and then find the answer almost immediately (after wondering about it for a few hours)

    The answer to my own question is: my aff link is at the bottom of the check out page.

    Can I get a 'DUH' I'll say it so no one else has to. :p

    *hangs head* I'm going to get a glass of wine and rock bath and forth in the corner - okay?
