Many affiliate programs use software that only tracks about 80% of your sales. It has to be said that many of popular affiliate companies are guilty of this. So beware big names! Some companies use tracking software that only pays if customer visits your link and buys straight away. If visitor returns to your site an hour later... a day later... week later... and buys, you will not be credited for sale. Good 'cookie tracking' software ensures that this never happens.
So, before you join any affiliate scheme make sure to ask about kind of tracking software they use. It could save you a small fortune in long term.
