CAMS.COM changing affiliates stats - screen shots inside

09-13-2006, 02:59 AM

Not even talking that they wont convert any free member to sale .
here's a screen shot from 2 days ago :

Look the raw figure for 9/11 .

now here's a screen shot from just now :

boom , 9/11 raw hits are down by 50% .
I know that their unique count is from all of their affiliates that day so that's why the huge difference between the raw/unique but why to shave the number so it will look less ugly ?

oh and btw how about converting member ?

How long are you going to continue sending traffic without getting a payout? There's so many better places to make money with your cam traffic.

"WTF, on google you can find the answer to every question in human history, EXCEPT how to convert cams..

Its crazy..."

its pretty clear to everyon looking that the 1200 traffic was an error that one day you did not send 6X the raws yet teh same uniques, do not accuse me of chaving, as thats utter bs and anyone looking at this can tell for themselves. the raws and signups are consistant each day, I am sorry you are not converting well, but on 50 free members that is a really small test, Our staff would be happy to work with you to see if there is something we can do to up your conversions.

I've also noticed an abnormal amount of raws some days, wich sometimes gets corrected a couple days later but sometimes it doesn't.

that's not an error , you lowered my raw hits since the first day , that's why i took screen shot at 9/11, i knew i only needed to wait 1-2 days to see the fixed stats and there it is shown above .
your ad is shown at 300k/day traffic sites these days , the spot i put your ads does sends 1k+ hits daily.

Why would anyone shave raw hits?

They mean nothing.

Making acusations of fraud is frowned upon without proof - (or if you are Epic and the owner already told everyone they shave) - what you have shown in anyones wildest dreams dosnt show anything of the sort.

thats weird, i wonder if they're counting refreshes or tallying up other page clicks... then calculating unique raws the next day

ur raws are way off... thats a bug in their initial / realtime calculations. totally obvious

Why can you not ask a valid question on GFY, but can we only say YEAH THEY ROCK and WHOOHOOOO....

It IS strange...Yeah there is propably a valid reason for it...It also happend on other ppl's stats(yeah saw it as well)...An explanation why, would be usefull no?

Also the TS never said they were shaving...He said, CHANGING STATS, what IS happening...

After that mister damian comes in, and talks shit...I don't see Elron posting 'cams.com is cheating'..He just says this stats change is not a fluke/error, it is happening all the time..He is NOT saying they cheat..

Jeez, GFY is sometimes pathetic

Although I'm not always happy with clickcash, you would have had at least 1 paying signup with them by now.

Someone else was complaining to me today about sending 8k to cams and getting nada.. Don't know how many free signups that had generated though.. But still... Sending 8k to clickcash would have made a few sales at least. I've been trying imlive lately and although I'm making more per click than clickcash, it's conversion rate is worse. Course.. I'm only making more per click because of their promos.

Do you guys think that there's any chance the same mistake will make me win their ferrari ?

And to anyone who's wondering what's going on there the answer is simple , and to understand it you have to know how their system works

The raw hits is the ad click ammount that is being sent to them . Their unique system counts unique from their ENTIRE program at any given day , this means that if affiliate A sent them the surfer Z , their system will credit affiliate A with a unique count . Now if surfer Z keep surfing for porn and browses to affiliate B , then from there he clicks on cams ad . In this case - although that affiliate B sent them unique surfer - their system will count the click as RAW , because affiliate A sent him already to them earlier .

They do this so the sales count will be a division from a lower figure and so you see nicer sales/hits .
Now if you ask me i believe their system automaticly and i repeat - automaticly reduce the raws figure so their affiliates wont start asking question how the hell there's such a huge difference between the unique and the raw count . This is not exactly fraud because they dont shave your money , but their did adjust their system to raise their conversion rations and that's fucked up .

Im booting them from my sites , good luck to anyone else that is using them .

Intesting... Never thought of that but it would certainly explain why some programs I push have huge differences between raw/uni compared to other programs... I wonder it it's clearly spelled out in the TOS that it's not unique that you've sent, but unique visit to the site. Unique visit to the site would be the "easier" code to implement...

then what's YOUR explanation to this ? you can't deny that there is an alteration of the raws figure , either deliberatelly or by mistake , and it is happening constantly almost every day . care to reveal us YOUR CLUE ? because if not , you can take my previous advice and go lick their asses somewhere else .

You say that the figure shown at first is the correct number and they halve it.

The first number shown is ALWAYS an even number - why do you think that is? - if its the actual number of raws surely it would be sometimes even and sometimes odd.

The next clue for you is simple maths - you take any number and double it the result is an even number.

So the higher number that is shown and then changes CANT be the actual number of raws - it dosnt make sense.

You also say that it happens all the time - so it cant be an error - we are talking about computers doing calculations... think about it.

It just takes a little bit of lateral thinking.

OK I will dumb it down for you - its a bug in the system - it has been there for years - previously affecting AFF - and has been discussed here many times.

If you are too stupid to follow what was said in my previous post that is your problem and not mine.

So you know the large number is always even from 2 samples? I need you to do the maths on my stuff.

Elron, sorry if it's irrelevant but you could be making $30 per free signup with MoneyTree for instance.

57 x 30 = $1710 (!!!) you missed out on during the last 10 days.

Just curious...Not really much to do with the thread but seeing as folk from cams.com are browsing... is anything done with the free joins? Are mails sent out to them? I always wonder why they never convert into members....

cams.com commissions

One thing we noticed about cams.com: since they introduced the 'up front' commission payment at the start of August, sales almost halved overnight. No change in the volume of referers, uniques, free signups, or anything else, just a 50% overall reduction in commission payments. And no, it wasn't that the big spenders were away on summer vacation, because they didn't come back ;)

What would help curb much of the scam speculation, and what would ultimately help savvy web marketers to drive more traffic, would be to provide a set of useful statistics (hourly hits, real time spend, some indication of who is a returning customer and who is a new sale).
