Clickbank Commision Theft – Affiliates Beware

I once tried using a program called affiliate cloner. I set up my links and after a few weeks  I followed one of the the links and scrolled down to the bottom of the Clickbank order page. To my surprise the referring affiliate nick name was changed to “JAVA9?So I closed the page and followed the link again, this time it showed my affiliate ID at the bottom of the CB order page.

I did this over the next few days and found that it was alternating between my CD ID and one called “JAVA9?. I said to myself “that’s funny” since the affiliate cloner works by generatinga javascript code from your affiliate hop link for you to save as an html file on your domain and then use IT as your referral link to customers.

Then for the customer to get to the publisher site she must have a javascript enabled browser (about 96% of browsers are javascript enabled)  When my cloned link is followed in this manner there is a split second where i could actually see the script run. I wasn’t sure what was going on so I stopped using the script.

Recommendation
Use the HTML or PHP (for php servers) redirect script provided by Clickbank although I don’t suppose they are foolproof. If you used wordpress you can used Super Affiliate Blogger system by Gobala Krishnan or Wordpress Affiliate Pro. Dont try any free plugin of whatever because it risk you to lost your commission.
