INTERNET MARKETING

Google shows that I made a sale but the sale doesn't show up in my Clickbank account. This is the second time this has happened. Any ideas as to why this happens?

You got screwed by Clickbank.

Follow the sales process that you have setup and just before you purchase, check to make sure your affiliate ID is at the bottom.

Actually, it may not matter if it shows or not as the buyer could have blocked your cookie on their end.

What a shame man.

  Hi,
  
  Another possibility is 2 people who didn't order managed to find your download page.
  
  Or maybe the persons who ordered bookmarked your order page and came back later and downloaded it on a different computer such as their laptop which would show up as a different ip address and trigger your stats counter for your thank you page.

Thanks guys, I guess it's a lost.

To Harvey. I'm using Adwords and it shows I have a conversion on one of my PPC ads but no record is showing up on clickbank.

  Yes I realise that. I was after more detail.
  I assume you are the vendor, not the affiliate, and you are
  tracking hits to your thank you page ?

  the vendor has my google tracking code on their thank you page. Google has one conversion for one of my ads.
  I'm just starting out so this is all I'm using to track my campaign conversions right now.
  
  Thanks

Welcome to the realities of affiliate
marketing.

I'm having similar issues with a CJ
merchant right now - Google is
tracking significantly more sales than
I'm being credited with.

Long term . . .

affiliate marketing should be used as
a list builder - not a money maker.

This is why.
