Definately.
My one account is way way off base. I don't have a Screenshot to Post, but I had one day on Tuesday, where I swear to God my comissions were vanishing.
It was the First Day Ever, and my Sales were OFF by 50%. Literally. I still had the Exact amount of PPC costs as every other day, even higher, but sales, off by 50%.
It is just too weird for so may people to be complaining.
I know we are all used to Clickbank. It's easy, and they Pay on time. However, if these anomylies continue?????
FYI,
I phoned CB today on behalf of my own accounts. They said they haven't had any real complaints or "Huge" amounts of them anyway and that all was normal. They also said they would keep an eye out for anything strange, so if anyone does have have anything to say to them, to get them to look into, maybe an E-mail to them might draw some attention and subsequent action.

Hi Mpio,
I've tried emailing them before many times when weird stuff happens to my account but they always say nothing is wrong. I guess we just have to live with it. :rant:

Something is definately "up". One of my accounts which has been generating at least 3-7 sales EVERY DAY for the past 3-4 weeks all of sudden had ZERO yesterday and ZERO so far today. Ad costs and traffic are the same as always - nothing has changed on my landing page or the merchant site. I find it highly unlikely that a program that has been converting 1:20 for me consitently would all of a sudden dry up for a day and a half!

Hi gen5media,
Theres a lot of factors involved in that. It really depends on the market you are in and if you are making anywhere from 3 - 7 sales a day, you can expect some days to have zero sales. The best way for you to avoid those zero day sales is to really expand on your market. Get thousands of keywords going and you will notice you wont have anymore zero day sales but sometimes those crappy sales day or days where you just break even. Its even better if you have a variety of products you are promoting. This way you are very well diversified since one product one day will make a lot of sales while the others may make crappy sales and vice versa. But dont get discouraged when you have zero day sales. Dont worry, you will be alright. :) Keep doing what youre doing.
Sincerely,
H Garcia

I get a ton of sales from so many different affiliates I can't even keep track, and then all of a sudden they stop too :weird:

Dick runs a php script, real hip...so 40% of janes sales dip it's insane! The name of the game is just skim, the script just trim & crop sales so Jane dont go out on a limb......if a new powerful affiliate is introduced to the site, the script allows those sales until the sales slow right? then it appears a natural decline...same with credit card lines, you'd have to have 20 different purchases to catch dick lying! Dick can do what he wants, because he's considered retail, sooner or later hell get nailed and his wife'll get railed :lol:

I wouldn't worry about it, once you start getting more sales volume (60-100 sales a day) then you'll start seeing more consistency. 3-7 sales a day on a given account is very likely to see fluctuations.

Dude I just noticed something.....
There is a four hour gap between the 19:49 and the four sales at 23:31
And they are all different customer names? I mean really...what are the odds.. I would bring this up to Clickbank.

Hehe..I would but its useless. I've tried complaining to them about a lot of crap before but all I ever end up getting is nothing is wrong so I just brush if off and move on.

Click dump?
I wouldn't put it past the glorious black box that is 'hoplink central' to run into situations where sales must be batch processed before going into the reporting system.

This is a two part reply. My sales completely disappeared for 5 days and I emailed.. I dont spam, but I was beginning to wonder if my account was shut down.. They said nothing was wrong.. sales came back. This morning I got up and had no sales listed.. my server went down, when i finally got back online 8 hours later, it said i'd had 3 sales before I even got out of bed..
Second part.. do you think it makes a difference whether you use bestbeat or nebula3? Spent a lot of time looking for anything different.
