    29% no cookies, 31% IE6

    From the new features of our stats program I got this data (a CJ2 site).

    I noticed on tgp2 galleries there were 10% less no cookie surfers than on my tgp1 galleries.

    Did anybody ever concluded the relation between IE6 and NoCookies. Anybody getting a decline on sales on sponsors that use cookies?

      Another thing that stands out is the stats from our resource site, where a lot of webmasters come:
      NoCookie: 2.4%
      IE6: 34.7%

      I will crunch some more data shortly and see what the overall results are.

          This should have a severe impact on sales if the sponsor is only tracking with a cookie.
          34.7% of IE6 users are not using cookies?

          I was always worried about this, but never imagined it was this high a % already.

              Yes, I think signups have steadily gone down for most webmasters and it is my opinion that cookies are a big part of it. I would love to know the percentage of signups sponsors get that aren't credited to any webmaster account because the surfer had cookies turned off.

                  just use sponsors who don't reply on cookies.


                  Thats a ton of nocookie.

                      Depending on just how your cookies are set, you can get wild variations in numbers from IE older versions to IE6.

                      THIRD PARTY cookies (NOT to be confused with third party processors) are turned off by default. Which would indeed give you the numbers you are looking at but not for what you think you are seeing.

                      CCBill does not use third party cookies; we go a step further and if we have site owners running our join page in a frame we break the frame so the cookie can be set.

                      Of course we also offer secondary and tertiary methods of tracking as well, including hard coding in the url and having the resellers go that route.

                      Each method isn't 100% foolproof, and we feel that our primary setup, using the cookies we set, is the best one for everyone involved.

                          I'm reading 5% nocookies which isn't bad.... sure some people are counting incorrectly but others have heaps of real nocookie traffic.

                              There's no such thing as a 3rd party cookie.
