Yeah bro but there is no way for a freesite to track sales from referrers at the moment. Maybe if *some* programs started to offer subaccounts for tracking we could do this -- but at the moment there is NO way for a freesite to track sales from individual referrers. Besides -- are you not going to trade links with anyone until they send you a sale? Sales tracking indicators are almost impossible to track for freesites! If advertisers gave a shit maybe they could help us do more tracking -- but they don't care because their bottom line doesn't change (in other words the hitbotters get the profits and the little guys don't)... Once again I'm reminded of the cookies incident with IBill!!! At the moment there is not a simple solution for freesites to track sales/referrers!!
