Depending on where you sent the traffic from, 700 clicks isn't always a guaranteed lead even on a simple form submit. However, if it was targeted, you got screwed big-time.:fart:

ive tried teeth whitening offers on several networks and never seen good conversions, those stats mean nothing about a network.
Wow they are banking off everyone. CNW Group | CYBERPLEX INC. | Cyberplex Inc. Reports a Strong Second Quarter 2008
34% margins are a bit much, how bad can the tracking be?

As one of the networks cited in the initial example, I have tried to stay out of this discussion. While I appreciate the heightened interest in our network as a result, my preference would have been that the thread wasn't as negative towards CX Digital as it turned into. Our experience and understanding of CX Digital has been positive in the past. I believe they deserve the benefit of the doubt. I know the advertiser (and their tracking system) well and run the offer as well, so I would guess that CX Digital was having issues with their tracking. Well, Shit Happens and mistakes are made.
Assuming no tricks were being played, I can only find fault with how CX Digital handled the situation. As a network, I understand the temptation not to proactively let your affiliates know that there is a big tracking issue as this usually results in more complaints, etc. But, affiliates are spending time/energy/money to drive traffic to these offers and deserve the information so they can decide what they should do.
As a final note, I do want to reiterate my belief in CX Digital's lack of bad intent and I am sure they will make their affiliates whole on the situation.

Well I just lost a nice fucking post and I ain't gonna retype it, so I'll just sum up:
Avoid CX. They consistently lose 30% of my clicks everyday. The same traffic has been tracked perfectly through other networks. Avoid them like the plague. Inquires resulted in circular discussion/troubleshooting.

I hate how affiliate companies do this bullshit. You really have to watch out for it - they may just take the leads for themselves. I'm suprised that CX Digital would do such a thing like that.
I've had problems with smaller companies.

I'm having the same problem, losing 1000+ clicks a day. My AM told me to watch tomorrow and let them know if the same problem is still happening. I have a feeling nothing will be fixed.
Hahaha, wow where did this thread dig up from
It was linked from the new skin thread. I was hoping some of the people wronged could give us an update. Since CX are a sponsor and all....
BTW, just an update. They actually did fix the click problem (for me at least). All clicks are pretty much recording accurately for me now. Split test one of my offers too and performed equally with the other network.
I was having some big lag issues with them last week, but that also appears to have been fixed.
