Is clickbank hops always clicks?
When I refresh one of my affiliate pages, I see my affiliate adress loads.
Does clickbank view this as hops and could it have anything to do with that
I´m using an iframe for this?

Sincerely
Karl

    If you are using an iframe to load a page with your affiliate link attached, this is called cookie stuffing. The affiliate system assumes somebody clicked on your link to get to that page.

    Every time the destination page is loaded with your affiliate link, it is a hop. If somebody did not click on your link to get there, that is cookie stuffing.

    This could get you in trouble with Clickbank as well as upset others who are promoting this same product.

    Hmm, well this is something that the merchants provides as a tool for his affiliates so that can´t be anything wrong them?

      I have not seen your site. But from what you have explained, you are cookie stuffing.

      The merchant will give you all the tools you need to make them sales. This does not mean that what they are giving you is ethical or will comply with the terms of Clickbank.

      The merchant will still get their share of the sale you on the other hand can get banned from Clickbank.

      Just be careful what you do. If you are getting hops without people actually clicking on your link, you are stuffing cookies.

      It is up to you whether you choose to do this or not.
