AuctionAds/eBay tracking issue resolved
April 26, 2007
I received an email yesterday from AuctionAds:
We’re happy to announce that the tracking issues eBay experienced have finally been fully resolved. The fixes were in place several days ago but again we didn’t want to make an announcement until we were sure everything had returned to normal. Credits will be applied to publisher’s accounts as soon as the final numbers are determined. Thanks go out to all our publishers who waited patiently through this issue. It was frustrating for everyone involved. That being said, with tracking fully restored revenues are higher than ever.

Is money earned from affiliates “seasonal”?
April 10, 2007
Over the last month or two I’ve noticed that revenues generated from some advertisement services seems to be getting seasonal. What I mean by that is that during certain months of the year, either the revenues generated shoot up or it comes down significantly. I’ve seen this trend now over a two year period and am wondering if others have noticed a similar trend. I’ll really be interested in knowing this. Do share your thoughts. Read more
