I am absolutely livid - Clickbank stinks…
By Ross Goldberg | February 2, 2007
There is a definite problem with Clickbank hoplinks with IE 7.
I had several people, including myself test this.
In the tests conducted approximately 57% of the time, when clicking through to the pay screen for a Clickbank product, at the bottom it says AFF=NONE.
If there is ANYBODY here who has any clout with Clickbank, PLEASE contact them and make them aware of this problem.
Affiliates are getting murdered, myself including. My sales have plummeted through the floor.
What makes this even worse is that it is apparantly an intermediate problem, which makes it all the more worse. As a former QA tester I can tell you that intermittant problems are close to impossible to find.
This is not theory, this is not rumor, this is not alarmest talk. This has been tested and narrowed down to IE 7.
In just checking my user logs, I noticed that 67% of the people going to my affiliate site are using IE 7. This is an alarming stat which means you have a 38.19% chance of losing a sale (57% failure rate x 67% users with IE 7) each time a customer goes to your affiliate link.
Somebody here has to be powerful enough with Clickbank to get these people to fix their system before we all take a terrible beating.
I am personally calling them, but I am pretty much just a small fish in a very big pond and I doubt I’ll make much headway.
Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
After all, this affects ALL of us.

I do agree. CLICKBANK does STINK, I have a DotStartUp Mall
that list most if not all the affiliate websites. After testing, I found that most websites, including yours says AFF=NONE.
I have e-mailed ClickBank several times to no avail.
HOW DO I SIGN UP AS ONE OF YOUR AFFILIATES?
