Freebie (Incentive) Website Crediting Guide
Posted on 07. Sep, 2009 by $haz in General
As many of you should know that sometimes when your users complete campaigns (offers), the campaign does not convert properly. This can be caused by many reasons, but many believe it can be caused by not clearing cookies and other small steps that help the campaign convert properly.
How much do these steps and techniques really help? One can never be too sure. For all we know it might do absolutely nothing, but then again it can be that one small deciding factor that lets the cookie register your sale. I just treat them as one of those folk stories that everyone just knows and follows. Like when I was little my mother used to tell me if I left one shoe upside down something bad would happen to one of my family members. Did I believe it? Eh. Did I obey it? Hell yes.
This simple step by step guide is what I have available for my users so that they can read and follow these instructions to help with their conversions. If you want to create your own that closely follows mine, go ahead. If you want to completely rip it off, well go ahead because it’s not like I can really stop you now can I?
