hi!
i working for around 2 weeks now to get my own affiliate started. since a few days i use epoch as my party processor.
but i guess i'm really not able to get the affiliate program (ezclicks) set up properly.
if anyone knows how to get it to work please check http://www.18-nude.com/webmasterpage.html and tell me if everything's correctly set up.

is it correct, that the affiliates have to link to http://clicktrack.wnu.com/clicktrack.php?co_code=L84&
rs_code=XXXXX&target=www.18-nude.com (replacing XXXXX with their username) in order to get paid for each sale?
if the link like that to my site, and the surfer decides to signup, how does the program know that he gets credited? cause on the 'checkpoint.html' there is only the usual linking code...

i'm very confused about all that stuff...

so please help me urgently. i contacted their support, but we're in different time zones, and it's nearly impossible for me to stay up all night to get this to work with their help.

if anyone who's experienced with that could contact me on ICQ (23821240), then i would highly appreciate this.

thanks in advance :)

Hi,

I can't help you with the specifics of the affiliate setup, but I can tell you how they track the referrering webmaster deeper into the signup: cookies. I loaded your sample URL and it set a cookie anyuser@clicktrack.wnu[1].txt , which includes the "XXXXX" string in it.

Cheers.

No, I can't help you with that, but you can be pretty sure that the link you have posted works, it tracks affiliate webmasters using cookies.

Also, I noticed this: https://www.18-nude.com/cgi-bin/reselleradd.cgi ... connection fails?

oh...earlier today it worked...well..thanks for your help...
but i'm sure that there is something wrong, cause i opened an affiliate account and linked with the linking code to my paysite, but it counts nearly nothing...

i guess i have to wait till epoch starts working :)

Hi stain,
Your surfers get tracked by cookies, that is how it works with both affiliate and sign up's programs, i think you are setting the code the right way, it is pretty easy. I
f you have any questions about it you should contact them and ask them if their is anything wrong with the linking code that you are using.
;)
