I think her link url is incorrect. The one for FoxyAngel looks like this.

Couldn't login earlier to stats, and now that I can, it looks like traffic wasn't getting through either.|banghead|

Not nice when the traffic is PPC.|club|

I think they were completely down for a few hours this morning.

Yep - they were claiming a "power loss" - of course that doesnt explain what has been going on for the last 4 weeks

Stuff like this shows why a paysite should never use a processor's link codes and use a simple php front end instead.

It still kills foxyangel when this happens. We basically have a simple php front end that strings together the default CCBill and Epoch link codes together so when Epoch goes down it makes foxyangel unreachable through the affiliate's link code.

Butt... With a php front end you can pull Epoch or CCbill without affecting affiliate's link codes. Just remove the join option and edit the php script, links stay the same.

I have noticed a spike in sales after things start working again so I guess some surfers actually do try again later. Oddly more surfers seem to be using the Epoch option more then in the past... not sure what is up with that.

Right now it's just damn frustrating. Working enough of the time that we don't want to temporally remove Epoch but... |banghead|

Cascading in NATS solves this problem :)

Cleo I may have mis-spoke. Her sign up page had Paycom as a link ..our payment processor is Paycom..and that link went to the unretreivable paycom site.

Never been a big fan of NATS but still it is a nice solution for lager programs, IMO kind of overkill for a one site program.

not good. any news?

This is the kind of thing that makes CCBill stand out. If this were about them a CCBill rep would have been here on page 1. Where are you, Epoch?

Cleo 2008-01-30 08:34 AM

Down again this morning :(

Maybe it's time that Epoch finally got off that virtual hosting account and moved up to a few dedicated boxes.

Cleo 2008-01-30 12:39 PM

I called them.

They were like oh yeah we're working on the servers... no big deal... should be back up in a hour or so...
