I was very impressed at how fast your pages loaded up on my dialup connection as well as the logic behind your page layouts.

RadarCat - thank you, we have given a lot of thought to our site, we are actually relaunching the site in Q1 with a whole new look and feel, this new site will be extremely user friendly. One of the things we did with the data feed was to give the products in the description more concise and KW loaded content that was different from the site becuase we didnt want anyone to be penalized for having the same descriptions as we did on our site. I would love any additional tips. I really appreciate any feedback. and you can always email me at ben@4inkjets.com.

ecomcity - Wow- I have been watching you post for a while - I am surpised I got the attention of a heavy hitter like you.

What on page high conversion tools do you offer affiliates? Like all non e-mail spamming affiliates I have to battle the cookie washers in your program. I am not sure what you mean by "On page high conversion tools" are there actual tools that are out there that we don't offer? i would love to learn more about these. I always assumed our prices and excellent customer service record (bizrate 2x winner etc etc) has enticed customers to convert. We try to keep our site clutter free and try to make it simple so they find what they want.

I see 4 ink companies with double your EPC - Actually our real EPC is a lot higher, we got hit in August by an affiliate who sent us 80,000 clicks in two days and CJ is being a real pain and not deleting those clicks, no doubt becuase they want 123inkjets their sister company to enjoy having a higher EPC than us for the first time in 2 years.
and all entice and wink at Ink spammers, cookie stuffers and those riding the BHO keyword - theftware trains. We have strict policy on no spamming and it is enforced. CookieStuffers - Not familiar with this term, are you talking about the ShopAtHomes and stuff like that? BHO - can you give me some examples of this, would that be like Amazon Toolbar? or WhenU or something like that? If you find an affiliate of ours who is not ethical please let me know me know ASAP. The problem is we get about 60 affiliate applications a day. My affiliate teams does thier best to check them but that is a hard job being that affilaites are not required by CJ to put a lot about thier companies into the form. i have been asking CJ for over a year to make a more detailed affiliate form, How the affiliates promote traffic, PPC, SEO, BHO, Coupons, Rebates, An easy way for me to see this and to review any links or privacy policies that the affiliates employ.
Putting up a Product Showcase creator and the wonderful GoldenCan conversion tool whould indicate your not just another ink spam recruiter. Thank You, we have a lot more tools coming out- but I am keeping them under wraps until launch. I pre-sell Ink supplies by targeting shoppers before the click. Like your boss ... I'm tasked to sell Ink ... not coupons for Ink. Yeah - We didn't used to do coupons until a year ago, but our competitors kind of forced our hand by offering incessant coupos, I agree we love the affiliates who push our content rather than the coupon pimps .The above moves would sure ring true with this affiliate crowd who have had their fill of un-ethical Inkjet/laser cartridge hawking middlemen armed with a tricks for clicks affiliate force.

I setup my 2 nephew... shipping off to Iraq to fight the War on Terrorism in October. May they return safely

Well, I think that covers everything you brought up ECom, let me know if there is anything else that you want to know.

Also - If anyone has an alternative to CJ I would be interested in hearing it out. ben@4inkjets.com

Vaisg,

Sorry - I posted in the wrong message - I am reading throught the forum you linked. Please give me 1-2 weeks to do my own investigating. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention. One thing I noticed in the forum you linked to, at least for me was that My CJ rep actually pushed us to accept Upromise. Which leads me to wonder why CJ would push an affiliate that steals commissions? I know that they kicked out ShopatHome and a bunch of other affiliates. I do not think CJ is great, in fact I get very frustrated with them frequently, but in my opinion they are the best of the alternatives out there.

I will get back to you about the other issue shortly.

Thanks
Ben

Thanks Ben.

Keep up the good work. 4inkjets is one of the best ink merchants at CJ and I certainly hope it stays that way. :up:

Ben,

Do you realize that your affiliates on Hydra Media are spamming your offers? I've received at least six so far this month from at least two different affiliates of yours.

This reflects very poorly on you and your company.
