Who watches your campaigns when your asleep or away ?!

Last night it happened.

What every affiliate fears.

Late at night.

While asleep.

The offer went down !

did I lose money ?!

NOPE!

5min after the page went down. I was woken by a text that let me know what was up and where to stop traffic.

I hit my network up with the facts this morning.

Credit for leads and traffic.

Who is watching your back ?! Esp. when in Vegas ???!!!

Namaste

I'd run a website monitoring service like pingdom on the offers with bogus aff-ids

I dont worry about that shit because I only run traffic with networks that tell me in advance when an offer will go down. No network should pull the offer down randomly without at least a day in advance warning or I won't work with them.

But cool story anyways...

It's good being based in NZ, since most of my partners cover the period I'm asleep.

I received What'sAPP notification from partner..

"this is very bad, i sent 3000 clicks to the site"
"sherman, payment processor is down!!!"

im like, "don't worry, fixed!"

What service were you using phoenix?

Man if text messages woke me up, I'd be waking up 5x a night. Whatever service it was would need to be hooked up to my alarm

Get a phone just for that, plug into a gigantic B&O speaker set, maximize volume and you're set.

Or attach the phone to your cat so it goes apeshit and wakes everyone in the neighbourhood up.

pingdom.com , on your best offers

Do you know of a service that tells you if an offer is being redirected? It might not go totally down. Also, Phoenix, care to elaborate on what service you are talking about here?

Afftime.com (free trial)
Offersnitch.com
