    Fishy problems with stats on SweetMoney.com

    A few weeks ago stats stopped working for over 24hrs and was told there was an issue with the main database.

    Now I am having problems with signups. Last pay period there was a sale that I was paid 15$ for when I should have been paid 25$ for like all the rest. This pay period there is a sale I made 0$ for. This is not making any sense.

    Also the referral links are no longer showing for sales ever since the database issue.

    I also noticed the clicks are disappearing.. I was converting 1:600 so far this period and now those hits are gone and I am now converting 1:14?

    Any ideas what this might mean? am i gay?

          Every program I have ever promoted had a glitch like this here and there. Sales shoing up for zero dollars or the wrong price. The fact that a sale is there goes to show they arent shaving and its a glitch. Im sure they will fix it for you. Patience

              My guess would be they are now counting second page hits..

              Realitycash also did this for awhile and tripped me out

                I've only sent a dozen sales through them (no problems), but my take was they were legit. Sweet Loads has been around for a long time.

                  They are certainly legit, and in my experience they rebill really well... There is something wrong with the way StatsRemote reports their rebills though. If you get one rebill it will stay on the "today" tab for the rest of the month, but show no money for those other days.

                            Nope.. but I once promoted them a while back..

                            I actually made more money with UP than anyother sponsor to date..

                              Another issues with SweetMoney is I get this error when posting to thehun witch I am not impressed with.

                              There has been an error:
                              You have a sponsor on your gallery that entraps people in their program. They either disable the backbutton or pop so many consoles users can't go back where they came from.

                              The problem I have with this is that people will learn that clicking a banner results in being caught up in console loops and popup windows. That's not what they should learn. A paysite should promote it's quality, not it's ability to pop consoles through JavaScript. Surfers will not click a banner if they went through console hells a couple of times. Which means both you and I won't make any sales anymore. Making money through banners will be impossible if the market is invested with paranoid surfers who don't dare to click anymore.

                                Have you heard they are withholding October payments until epoch starts rebilling their members so they have enough money to pay webmasters?

                                  Nope thats news to me.

                                  The worst part is I started to promote them AFTER the ibill fuckup.

                                          thats how a lot of sponsors can afford to pay per signup, several sites use popups.

                                            I can get paid 5$ more per signup but I choose to use the link code that does not have pop-ups.

                                                Max works I believe 9-5 hours (Mon-Fri) and they are located in Vancouver. So that is the reason he hasn't gotten back to you yet, as soon as he sees this (or your e-mail) I am sure he will get back to you.

                                                I have done business with these guys for the past year and from my own perspective they are 100% legit. We get our cheques every month.

                                                  I have done business with these guys for the past year and from my own perspective they are 100% legit. We get our cheques every month.
