For webmasters using sponsors with ccbill, where on your site do you call the click code? Once I was calling it every load of the page, but this was REALLY slow, although I did get credited probably for every single signup. My theory is people go to another site, get another cookie, and you don't get credit, but if they come back to you with 72 hrs no problem..any opinions?

It is possible to pass the CCBILL referer code as a form variable, and this is much safer than cookies alone, however, you have to be able to track the afiilates CCBILL code throughout the preview pages . . .Comment

cookies take precedence over hard-coding, so if the user had the cookie for that partner before, he/she gets credit even if hard-coded it in the form, at least that's what I understand...
What I've done is run dual cookies, the first cookie tracks the click code cookie in terms of time and when it expires it resets itself AND calls the click code, but this occurs one every x days.Comment

So does anyone know how to change the sponsors cookie file to read only on the surfers computer?

When a new cookie is set it should overwrite the existing cookie.Originally posted by scorpion3600

IE, someone clicks a banner on your site, cookie gets set, they don't sign up.
Tomorrow they come to my site, click my banner, and sign up.
I get credit for the join because my cookie overwrote yours. If you know of sponsors where this isn't the case please post a list of them so I know to never use them.
Also, the query string should always be the first place to look for whom to credit the signup to. If there is none (ie a type in or a bookmark) then you look for the cookie, NOT the other way around.
Again, if you know of programs that look for the cookie first instead of the query string, or that let the first WM to set the cookie get credit for the join, please LMK so I can be sure to never send them a click.sig too bigComment

Interesting, maybe I misunderstood ccbill but apparently for ALL affiliate programs the search order is :
cookie from users computer --> cookie exists --> use that (bypass any query string referer) --> cookie doesn't exit --> is query string referer set? ---> yes ---> referer gets credit ---> none set, then nobody gets credit
If both a cookie exists AND a query string referer is passed, the cookie referer is used. But maybe its not true, you can ask them..Comment
