CCBill Click Reporting Explained?

[Failed]

I haven't promoted too many CCBill programs in the past, but have started developing a few tube sites and would like to know if someone is willing to explain their Click Reporting area. I also have an email into support.

Each program seems to have different click reporting methods. Such as:
* raw clicks with Raw, timeframe: 1hour(s)
* Raw Clicks, Unique Clicks - IP/Browser or Cookie with Raw, Unique: IP/Browser or Cookie timeframe: 1 hour(s)
* Raw Clicks, Unique Clicks - Cookie with Raw, Unique: Cookie timeframe: 24 hour(s)

I'm sure there are many more variations. If you look under the "help" section in CCBill admin, it doesn't even have click reporting as an option to be explained.

Thank you.

I guess I should be a little clearer. I obviously understand what raw clicks, unique clicks, and cookies are. What I'm not quite sure of is how what I've listed above relates to the program.

For instance, FTV Cash has their click reporting set at:
- Raw clicks - Raw, timeframe: 1hour(s)

Does this mean that they only track raw clicks and not unique clicks, with a cookie time of 1 hour?

The programs with click reporting set at:
- Raw Clicks, Unique Clicks - Cookie with Raw, Unique: Cookie timeframe: 24 hour(s)

Does this mean they track raw and unique clicks, with a cookie time of 24 hours?

I wouldn't even worry about it, I mean accurate and real time stats are so 90's as long as ccbill pays every week, pesky trivial things like form hits, raw clicks, form submissions, really are over rated and not very useful.

As long as your weekly payout looks on the surface to be somewhere in the neighborhood of what the algorythm says you should be making, just go with it, and not sweat the details.

remember more traffic = more clicks to join page.....more clicks to join page means more form submissions....more form submissions = plenty more sales....more sales = plenty more on your payout...

see you just focus on getting clicks to the form....let "them" worry about everything else stats included

It'll drive you insane if you start analysing the reports on cbill, they simply aren't accurate/good enough. Just the other day I was told that 'online check' payments when declined are not tracked properly so form hits to sales to declines don't add up correctly, why, who knows! that's one of many inconsistencies, just make sure your payments balance!

While I agree that I should be concerned with pumping traffic to sponsors and keeping my balance in check, what I'm most concerned about is each programs tracking methods. From what I posted above from my CCBill admin, it appears that FTVCash has a 1 hour cookie. Is that an accurate assumption on my part? Do they track via other methods, if so, which? Must I email every program owner to find out their individual methods, and are they telling the truth, if I get a response, even though the CCBill admin may state different? These are all the questions I would like answered. A detailed documentation on click reporting from CCBill would make this possible. I'm hoping that either via my email or this thread, such documentation is made available.

My ICQ is no more. I will forward you the email. But, I saw another curious about this same topic, perhaps a post with some information would be a good idea. Thanks for responding, James!

I sent you an email a few days ago, but have yet to hear back. I included my GFY handle in the subject line.

This is the second email that's gone unanswered when trying to get these questions answered from CCBill. Can you just post exactly what the different statements in the click reporting area mean? Or provide a link to documentation that does?

My Original Email:

Hello,

I was wondering if you could explain to me the following:

Click Reporting
* What does it mean when it only says raw clicks?
* What does it mean when it says Raw, timeframe: 1hour(s)?
* What does it mean when it says Raw Clicks, Unique Clicks - IP/Browser or Cookie?
* What does it mean when it says Raw, Unique: IP/Browser or Cookie timeframe: 1 hour(s)?
* What does it mean when it says Raw Clicks, Unique Clicks - Cookie?
* What does it mean when it says Raw, Unique: Cookie timeframe: 24 hour(s)?

* Basically, I would like an explanation on all the possible click reporting options. I tried help and searching through help, but could not find details on what I have listed above. I'm sure there are more variations of the above as well. Can you please explain or direct me to documentation that explains these things.

Thank you
