That being said, I am sure people do cheat the system, just like they cheat the system with Clickbank stuff. Is it worth cheating for $15? - people do it all the time unfortunately. That being said, it looks like I gained 100 subscribers over the last few days, many due to the PPP Direct review, though I have had solid traffic from other sources this week as well.

The whole thing rests on cookies. It is the 3rd party cookie that adds the affiliate code via a not so impressive URL matching system that breaks very easily (as I have proved since my first comment). My gut says not to trust them and I trusted my gut and my gut was right. The chances are you will do very well with them jus because you are Andy Beard! You certainly seemed clued up enough to track who is clicking what and hold them to account. What bothers me though is that the HTTP referer should be tinyURL. The whole thing rests on cookies.

The funny thing no one has yet tried to bait me thinking that I wrote the review in a positive light either by arrangement, or in anticipation of that kind of reception and whether that influences reviews more than money. For many people the lure of traffic for writing a controversial review may actually affect their judgement more than the few dollars paid by a paid reviews company, whichever one is the mediator between you and an advertiser. If someone was really looking to write impartial reviews, they would link out to whatever other reviews they could find on the net either positive or negative.

If you are paying for traffic, you want to be able to measure conversions for each keyword, or keyword group. I could also possibly modify affiliate links on each page based on other referral data such as if someone came from your site, and then purchased something. That being said, there are ways to track referrals based upon the referring domain extremely effectively without the use of affiliate links.

Refferer is possibly not the most reliable HTTP code and the fact they will filter against lordmat.co.uk/lordmatt when all item pages are lordmatt.co.uk/item/xx means I have to ask if they will even notice the referal as valid. Plus it goes through tinyurl as a middle man. I can shak the feeling this is designed to loose "lagitimatly" a safe percentage of conversions. Then again I demand 5 figures to do a PPP these days so I'm not likely to ever need worry about them again. The total lack of tracking in the affiliate links always worries me.

Hopefully the new landing page helps with the conversion. This really does seem like an interesting idea, I was introduced to it a long time back.
