Has anyone had the same experience? I'm using PPC to promote. My google conversion tracking shows that I have 12 conversions off of 338 clicks.

So I go and check my stats in clickbank for today... 3 clicks? lol..

Are they experiencing a delay in reporting again? I know that they were a few days ago.

Is anyone else having this experience today??

Thanks for your responses.

    That is frustrating to see. I have had this happen many times before and I think its because the merchant has many other affiliates tracking code on their page. I have found that Google conversion tracking isin't very reliable with Clickbank products. It is possible that Clickbank isin't updating quickly but I'm guessing that you have some false conversions showing up.

    Thanks for your response. I've Had this happen to me two on the when using the search... But I'm using the content network now. Don't know if that makes a difference or not... But still 12 conversions? Not sales? 3 hops?

    I'm also using a redirect along with a clickbank TID as well as google conversion tracking. Do you think this might be another reason? Maybe it could possibly be stopping the cookie from getting put on the end users computer?

    I think that Google conversion uses cookies to track, I'm wondering if this could somehow be blocking my cookies...

    I also saw something that looke like a pixel on my PC so.....I don't know.

    I think I'm beginning to see the reason people bet multiple clickbank accounts.

      You could also try tracking202 and use subids for tracking conversions. Maybe give that a try before opening another Clickbank account.

    Well I emailed them with the stats I had from earlier..

    Now the only problem is that I'm showing 17 conversions per google and 2 sales on clickbank. But the sales only show up on my home page. When I look in analytics it's now showing 7 hops, as opposed to 3 hops earlier. So I'm thinking that there probably is an issue with delayed reporting or something.

    I have to have a good read through the tracking 202. I already have a free account there but it's kind of confusing and from the videos I saw it doesn't get too much into detail regarding clickbank tracking. In other words the examples that they give are for other affiliate networks. But I'm thinking that google should be one of the most efficient sources when it comes to tracking though.

    Might have to try harder to get in to a CPA or something...

      Hi T.J.

      I am having the same problem. I have been working with a coach using PPC and he says that this is a common problem, but there does not seem to be an answer anywhere on the internet for this. If you find something please let me know. It is so disheartening to see 11 conversions registered by Google and Clickbank shows zero sales.

    Hey Just a quick update. 23 conversions per google conversion tracking.. 2 sales showing in clickbank! LOL....

    I have to laugh at that. I think it's time for me to make my own product through payloadz or something... Maybe try some CPA's because I think that there has to be something wrong with the tracking or something.

    I mean I thought sales percentages were around 1%.
    Not 1% of the 1% of sales I make...lol

    Generally I don't check my clickbank stats until the next day, they are kinda slow sometimes at updating.

    Hi Warriors,

    Has anyone had the same problem with recurring payments? I know for a fact that I have at least one, but it is not showing as it did last months.

    This just happened to me recently. 7 conversions in adwords but 0 clickbank sales. I paused the campaign until I figure out whats going on.

    10 google conversions, 0 sales now. Marvelous lol

    The vendor said probably somebody clicked on my ad but ended up buying through another link. I can accept the fact that that happens but 10 times? Doesn't sound very likely.
