Since the beginning, Internet marketers have been had ongoing discussions about others stealing their sales and how you might not be getting credit for EVERY sale that you should when selling products online.
Today I am going to clear this up for you once and for all...
First of all, marketers who worry about sales being "stolen" are wasting their time because there are so few cases of sales being stolen that it is not even worth a few seconds a day worrying about it.
So, why all the worry and why all the discussion?
Well, some people who are new to Internet marketing are very skeptical about making a sale to begin with, and feel that Internet marketing isn't real.
In other words, it is very easy for a complete newbie to pin their lack of success on "thieves".
That is until they start experiencing success for themselves. These same people feel that it is possible for another marketer to "steal" sales that you should be credited with. Technically, this is possible (anything is), but it's highly unlikely and is not something you should even consider worrying about.
For a sale to be stolen from you, the hacker would have to know the exact details of your buyers, install viruses on their computers, and somehow guess what products they are going to buy. This just doesn't happen and it's not something that you need to worry about.
But... here is something that you could worry about..
What if your potential buyer clears their cookies in their browser?
Think about that! Almost all affiliate programs rely on cookie tracking and when these are deleted, so are your potential sales!
If your tracking cookie is cleared from the browser before a purchase is made, there is no way for the company to know to credit that sale to you
UNTIL NOW!
Vendors (product owners) are starting to upgrade their affiliate systems so that Affiliates (you) make more money and prevent this cookie deletion problem.
We are again keeping ahead of the pace by upgrading our affiliate program at Wealthy Affiliate.
We are about to release a brand new Affiliate system of our own, using the most cutting edge technology that makes it much more difficult for you to "miss" a sale. With the new WA Affiliate system, people you send to our home page can clear their cookies, go on holidays, and come back months later and you will still get credit for the referral. We always lead the industry in technology and this is just one of our many systems that utilize technology to deliver a better service.
If you're worried about sales being "stolen" you don't need to. The likelihood of it happening to you is so low that any thought about this is just wasted time and energy.
DON'T STRESS!
Sales simply don't get stolen in the online world. The main problem is related to "cookies" and the deletion of them.
Some affiliate programs have taken necessary measures to make sure affiliate tracking is highly reliable and does not rely on browser cookies... and we're one of them.
