    setting cookies

    As a general philosophy for those using cookie-based affiliate tracking codes - is it best to set it once upon entry to your page or upon every exit on every link to your sponsor?

    While cookies, in my opinion, are somewhat unreliable... most sponsors (those that use cookie based tracking) set them upon entry to their site with your code.

    ALL Domains and Websites are GOING AWAY NOW! Ask me!
    Many great domains, mainstream and adult, some complete sites with databases, some names with traffic and PR, some investment quality names. Come take a look! { Traffic Orders: Please go here }

          actually what I've been doing is setting my own cookie to mirror the ccbill cookie in a php script, that way if the user has MY cookie, it goes to the sponsor site without the ccbill refer code, if they don't have it, the ccbill referer code is called just once. Very efficient I think...
