CCBill Admin Question
 
Where in the CCBill Admin can I get webmaster ref. codes? I've looked everywhere (I think)

I think..
you have to go to the actual program and they will give you the proper referral code. Like in their banners/link code area.

I tried that and all I get is the affiliate ref. code and a link to get banners, but no webmaster ref. code. There are several like that. I've sent some e-mails to support at several sponsor's but this should be easier than it is. For example: sexysquirter.com has a link for webmasters to sign up at Squirt's Cash but no log in area to get webmaster ref. code. |huh

It's the same.

If you want to send them straight to the site's webmaster page add this at the end
&HTML=http://sitedomain.com/webmasterpage.html

If that's true for all sponsor's using CCBill why isn't that spelled out somewhere?

Cleo 2008-06-15 05:23 PM

It is in the site owner's admin

No idea, but I can second that that is indeed the way its done.

But that admin isn't available to me. I can't find a way to get there. CCBill sucks.

No not CCBill - the program owner... I would assume they have a link codes page, and it should be on there

I stand corrected, you're right, a lot of the sponsor's that use CCBill suck.

You have to go your sponsor's site to get the referrel links

CCBill only provide the link for the surfers not for webmasters

just go to tool locate your sponsors and copy your CCbill ID for that sponsor
go to your sponsor and log in

there you go.. many links available


if you don't like CCBill sites.. go For Twistys :)

CCBill linking codes are consistent - (most of the time).

The standard layout is

Where xxxxxx = the program account number
and yyyy = the program sub-account number
and zzzzzzz = your affiliate number FOR THAT PROGRAM
and programurl - the url that leads to the program (directly or in-directly). This URL can be that of the programs tour, the join page, a hosted freesite, a hosted gallery, a hosted blog, etc....

When a surfer clicks on a link thus formatted, a cookie is dropped on the surfers machine and if the surfer joins the program at any time before this cookie expires, is deleted or updated, the affiliate will get credit for the sale.

I say most of the time because some programs use additional tracking scripts and special code to allow affiliate numbers to be assigned to things such as RSS feeds.

For example, we have a custom script on all of our hosted blogs that allows your affiliate code to be attached to our program feeds that you import into your blogs. In the case of the sponsor feeds on our program, the linking code that you would insert into your blog's incoming feed plugin would look like this:

http://www.blogurl.com/?feed=rss2&affiliate=yyyyyyy

where blogurl = the url of the blog and
where yyyyyyy = your affiliate ID FOR OUR PROGRAM

We than parse this to create the standard ccbill linking codes on each link within each post on your incoming RSS feed.

(remember that this example is only applicable to GMPCash RSS feeds and does not represent how other sponsors handle their RSS feeds)

Yes - CCBill programs vary widely in the tools that they provide their affiliates - but is this really a bad thing?

What about the new program with great fresh content or the brand new niche site that just got CCBill approval? ? These sites may be just what you need to make a sale in todays competitive porn world.

Bottom line is CCBill is one of the best processors out there - especially for new and smaller programs - and if you're not promoting CCBill programs - you're missing some of the best programs out there.

This may be a dumb question, but seeing as not all offer a comission on webmaster referrals, are you sure that the program(s) you're looking at pay for webmaster referrals?

(and not all have that "any URL" thingy turned on, so adding &HTML= to the end does not always work)

Greenguy 2008-06-16 07:02 AM

I haven't been in the owner's side of a CCBill admin for a long time, and I forget the term for what this option is, but if you do not turn on the "any URL' thingy, any & all link codes go to the default domain/URL.

I can't tell you how many times I've told a program owner about this option so that they could have multiple tours or hosted galleries or whatever.

This has nothing to do with additional tracking scripts :)

(and I can't tell you how many programs I had to remind about turning on the webmaster referral option, but that's another story)

Why would any program owner disable multiple redirects?

I believe the default setting has it turned off.

CCBill is just a biller
not a sponsor

only your sponsor are paying for refer commissions

you only can find that in your sponsor's site

Greenguy 2008-06-17 01:07 PM

CCBill is not just a billing company - they also offer an affiliate admin to paysites that are using them.

(not that many advertisers set that area up properly anymore)
