    If Your Affiliate Code Is At The Top Of Google For a Paysite

    should the sponsor zero out the sales you have earned thus far?

    discuss.

    why? if your affiliate code ends up #1 and you're still bringing in sales you should be paid for them. It's not anything illegal going on.

            i gotta send them an email and see why my sales are zeroed out. support isn't open until monday.

            like now it shows:

            1:464 $0.00

            ???

            you know some programs feel affiliates don't "deserve" sales for whatever reason - maybe i'm just being paranoid ....

                      well it looks like one of their house accounts is at the top of goog now.

                      i have no proof that is why they zeroed out the sales - but i don't know why else.

                      there was nothing shady going on. made a couple galleries and submitted them around, promoted them on a blog.

                          you should have taken screenshots, start doing it now of the affiliate area...

                          try and do the google results as well..

                          and tell us who, they ripped you off...

                              We have many affiliates that have high search engine rankings and traffic based on our site name. We never zero them out. All sales are good sales. I'd rather the traffic come to me than to another sponsor.

                                You worked to get the position, you should be compensated for it. Obviously you SEOd their link better than they could.

                                I agree, you were ripped off.

                                    If they're zero'ing out your payments for getting a top ranking, you should expose them. That's really shady.

                                      yeah just to clarify it wasn't a site on my own domain - it was their paysite carrying my affil. code.

                                      anyway - sent them an email to see what's up.

                                        Quoted for truth.

                                        I had several of my affiliate links generating sales in a similar situation for JuicyBucks, TCG, and Kinkydollars - none of them ever pulled any tricks like your sponsor.

                                        Out 'em if they don't give you a good reason for it!

                                          Are you saying it was pure luck? :-| or did you actively work with their domain on multiple sites and promo work etc?

                                                  That 1:464 0 dollars thing was probably a chargeback or credit. If its nats check your detailed stats report.

                                                    I am thinking it was probably an error or something unrelated to this.

                                                    If they really did cancel your sales because of your google position, then that is really shitty and they should be hung out to dry.

                                                      no webmaster sign ups, no chargebacks - just this morning the sales i had generated 0 ... very weird - anyway, we'll see what they reply. keep you posted.

                                                      it still shows the sales - just the dollar amount is gone.

                                                        If that is nats did you check detailed stats to see if you had chargebacks or credits?

                                                          detailed stats shows no chargebacks or credits - i'm leaning towards glitch as its good program -

                                                          just curious if there are programs that would think sales generated that way would be invalid - and judging from dungeon bank dudes response - there is i guess.

                                                            ok ok, is there more than one sale?

                                                            we all might be jumping the gun here...

                                                            if this is based on one sale, then theres a chargeback issue or something/

                                                            I highly doubt a #1 placement is generating one sale though...

                                                            how many?

And of course all the big money guys will for sure keep pushing them no matter how many people they fuck.

                                                                                            Sadly, everyone is out for themselves in this business.

                                                                                            Hope you didn't get fucked though. You earned that spot, you should keep the sales.

                                                                                                    yup that's the way i see it too.. he isn't exposing the sponsor in this thread even though he has been asked to many times and he has stated that this sponsor doesn't offer weekend support so he is just asking for ideas about this

                                                                                                    My thoughts are I would not be mad at you for having a 1# spot for one of my sites.. I would be happy with todays trends of so many ripping sites having 1# google spots..

                                                                                                    Some people don't allow affiliates to own the .net of a paysite but I myself do not mind at all cause if you are any good at SEO that means you will generate sales for me where if i bought the .net myself i might not have the time or know how someone else does to get great SE out of the .net
