What the hell is cj.com doing?

[johnny6]

I really hope this isn't just me... whenever I login to cj.com it says "read-only mode" and has not recorded a single statistic in the last three days!!!!

What on Earth is going on with them, I'm losing money!!!!!!!

Scheduled site maintenance Thursday, August 11, 5:00 p.m. PDT

Due to system upgrades, the CJ Account Manager will be unavailable for one hour starting August 11 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time, until approximately August 11 at 6 p.m. Pacific Time.

At 6:00 p.m. the site will go into “read-only” mode and remain in read-only mode through Sunday, August 14. While the CJ Account Manager is in read-only mode, you may access account data, however the reporting tab will be unavailable and any changes you make to your account will not be saved. After 12:00 p.m. PST, Sunday, August 14, the site will return to full functionality and the reporting tabs will be enabled.

Please also note that transactions will not lock until the system is back up on Sunday.

Tracking and recording of transactions are fully functional when the site is unavailable. When the site returns your reports may be delayed for up to 24 hours. If there are any changes to this schedule we will post them to the site to keep you informed.

My stats and reports are still not up and running, but the "read-only" message is gone now...

I myself dont understand what the money system of CJ is,
i think they only give money on if a user clicks on a ad of the company and purchases some thing from it, else not well thats what i heard so far ?

How to make money from CJ? Or any affiliate network...

Hi guys - I saw the question on 'how does CJ work' and thought I'd throw in 2 cents.

CJ is an affiliate network. It means if you run the ads they 'host' on your website or to your email list they'll pay you on you driving the desired 'action' to completion. Hm. That reads funny.

Let me explain it in this hypothetical scenario:

Netflix has a promotion where they'll pay CJ $10 for every new subscriber to their service. If you take the Netflix banner ad from CJ and host it on your site and one of your consumers clicks on the banner ad and signs up for Netflix's free trial offer, than CJ will pay you $7 or some percentage from the $10. The industry norm is a 30% cut. That's how they make their cash, by hooking advertisers up with publishers like you.

There are over 100 affiliate networks in operation that I know of (maybe as many as 150+) - and that's majority US based operations. There are international ones too that specialize in international and US traffic of course. They all want you as a publisher to run their offers. The tricky part is finding the affiliate network that has the highest payout that is working directly with the advertiser (like Netflix) - or even better, going to the advertiser directly yourself. >^,,^<

Hope this helps. This is my first post - rock on people! :gl:

No, I don't think so. It's just a change in how they report your revenue. It won't affect your revenue itself.

Until last month I never had any problems with CJ. In the last 2-3 weeks I have had several sales that have not been credited to my account. I have filed a ticket with them about it but they wont even respond to the fact that I have an open ticket. I think they may well be in the process of folding up shop.

Actually Linkshare is handling Netflix now. I have made a few bucks off their promotion deal from them. Good part about Linkshare is there is no minimum and they pay pretty accurately. Haven't really made much on CJ. Hope if they do go out that Ebay finds another location to deal through.

 

[johnny6]

It looks like CJ has sorted everything out - for the better, I would opine. I like their new division of reports and transaction details.

 

[BatRastard]

I dont know what they sorted out but I still have an issue of non-credited sales pending from last month that they wont even address...

 

[robertjr]

They have been a bit slow responding lately. Something was up with their system last month, reporting was very weird. I'm sure I lost a few $$ last month as well.

Although, I still think cj ROCKS! The return is great and they pay on time.
