I can say enough how important it is to know the difference between what they "being the affiliates" stats are vs. that of the company sending the checks. Online it is so easy to scrap and fudge numbers that double checking is a must. I allow certain thresholds before I'll bail on a company or confront about the "missed' sales. Typically I am small enough that I don't come out guns blazing I simple just move on. Thanks for the good advice. I think adding your own tracking to things is crutial.

That could be the problem, you don't have enough sales. It's a cost per click system based on performance metrics. So you were receiving earnings on days without sales based on previous history (EPC) related to performance. QCP payouts are based on history, ACRUs and quality of traffic being sent. I've seen higher than average commissions in my August QCP preview, September QCP preview and now my actual October QCP. The trend that I'm noticing is that affiliates who have inconsistent sales, or have sites attracting non-targeted (buyers) to the site seem to have lower than average QCP earnings compared to the older commission structrue. My sites are highly targeted and focusing on individuals ready to buy, I think that could be the difference. The others that I've spoken too about that are doing well seem to be following the same pattern. hanji No sales for 6 days? That could be the problem, you don’t have enough sales.

I don't. Here's why. I had no sales for the first six days of this month, yet I had QCP earnings every day that were higher than my average daily earnings in the past. Then one sale on day 7, none after that. And I'm still seeing steady QCP earnings. The QCP payout is apparently tied to nothing. You know that can't last.
