NastyDollars/Fling sales drop
 

Anyone else have their Fling sales drop to zero for no forseen reason? I was doing great, then nothing!! :mad: Traffic is still doing fine on my site, but for over a week now NO SALES!

http://www.nastydollars.com has gold content but hardly converts

I beg to differ. Across the board it converts the best off of our blog network....

was converting great then just a dead stop, so yes it normally converts. I just want to know why it did a dead stop though.

So you waste time posting bullshit? Get a life man!

read between the lines

Try me on ICQ I can fix your dropped conversion problem.

Which is why you took the time to drop in a refcode? :disgust

they have gone to shit for me as well :(

Here is a good script to see if a sponsor is shaving you. All traffic sent to this script will be equally split over 2 traffic urls that you enter. To make sure you are not getting shaved test sponsors against each other.

Script:

<?

$url_a = 'http://www.aol.com';
$url_b = 'http://www.gfy.com';
$goto = '';

$shm_key = ftok(__FILE__, 't');
$shm_id = shmop_open($shm_key, "c", 0644, 100);

$data = shmop_read($shm_id, 0, 1);

if (($data!='1') && ($data!='2'))
{
$shm_bytes_written = shmop_write($shm_id, '1', 0);
$data = 1;
}

if ($data=='1')
{
$goto = $url_a;
$bw = shmop_write($shm_id, '2', 0);
}
if ($data=='2')
{
$goto = $url_b;
$bw = shmop_write($shm_id, '1', 0);
}

shmop_close($shm_id);
//echo 'Redirecting to: '.$goto.'!';
header('Location: '.$goto);
die();


?>

I have no clue what I am looking at, but the concept sounds quite brilliant. :2 cents:

Change the traffic urls to the sites you want to test with your affiliate code (aol / gfy). Then make a file called index.php with the script text and upload it to your server. Let me know if you have problems.

why the hell are you messing with shared memory segments?

shaving one or two sales here and there would make it not obvious, so why the fuck take all sales away and make it so fucking right in my face? plus they started a $50 per sale today thats lasts till end of month, so you know i won't see any sales until next month now so they won't have to pay out that extra cash, fuckers!! :mad:

Sales are normal for me.

how can this detect shaving exactly?

Not sure if this is a rhetorical question or not... short answer is... it can't.

All this tracks is whether 2 sponsors both SHOW the same amount of traffic(uniques or whatever that sponsor uses to track number of visitors)

Since so many places use 1st page, or 2nd, or 3rd or join page to track uniques... this script is useless for tracking shaving.

or you can think on the flip side of things, that during a bonus everyone and their mother promotes them.

then sponsors have a hard time sending out email confirmations for profiles who just signed up, and I am sure things probably get a little back logged... like the email queue. there are a lot of factors.

I for one never promote a sponsor during a promotion, or I try my hardest to stay away from it.

Fling has been steadily increasing for me the past few months, no decrease in sales on my end. The promo is ROCKIN!!

I need to give them a push again. They have the best members area and content around.
But I havent been able to pull in big or competitive $$$ from them in a while.

With that said I havent given them a good push in a while either. I think its time again.

I really like those sites.

Last time pushed traffic to fling was about 6 months ago and i still make bank of the revshare.

ratio's aren't doing so well, but i'm doing the same as i was a few weeks/months ago.

fling is doing great for us

Really? I have always been on PPS since it was the original model, I had always debated on switching to rev but hadn't had any feedback on the subject. Anyone else using revenue share and getting good results?

ratios got really bad on my sites for over a month for Fling, so I had to pull off their links

Stopped promoting them for some time and just started back again with the promo, looking awesome :thumbsup
