No tracking of sign-ups if cookies are disabled?
 
Hey guys,
I've just read through the "Terms & Conditions" of a paysite and noticed this point:

Signups won?t be tracked if the customer refuses to be tracked (by disabling cookies)

Is there no possibility for the paysite owner to track the sign-ups if the user has disabled cookies?
I'm just thinking about the amount of sales I lose, due to disabled cookies...

well, we track signups with php-sessions expiring after 24 hours. So we dont care if a user accepts cookies or not :2 cents:

if a sponsor just tracks sales with cookies ... your choice if you wanna promote that one

What site uses php-sessions instead of relying on cookies?

Thanks for the post I just started pushing them and this is very troubling...

I'm promoting them since 1-2 months and the results are awesome...just wondered if this is an usual method of paysites to track the sales, or if juicybucks is an exception.

Has anyone tried and/or is doing 'old fashioned referals'?

ie.The refering site provides the surfer with a discount coupon/id which is used when (or after) signing up to get a bonus.

Surfers would go for it if there was something in it for them and this would transcend cookies, and those pesky session parameters which search engines ding you for.
