Well, runed campaign a bit. Promoted some Neverblue offer. Directlinked. -50% ROI so far, need to filter keywords, their tool do not show any longtails really, bunch of BS

Neverblue shows like 816 clicks, 8 conversions. While Bing shows 204 clicks only... 4 times less. And it's probably will not add up cause campaign paused for long time like 12 hours already and I am charged already.

By the way, I resumed it like 5-6 hours for like 30 minutes long again and it start showing clicks in Neverblue like 45-50...but only some impressions (not big amount) in Bing, and 0 clicks...

What is this ? Are those duplicated showing in Neverblue ? Are those impressions ? Maybe Bing later charge me for that 860 clicks totally ??!! (fuck this if so!!!!!!)
 


I give it accelerated daily amount, and it almost hit daily budget. So I am doubt Bing will charge me, cause price of Neverblue clicks according to Bing cpc will be like 3 times daily, while Bing says they may overcharge no more than 20% of it.

But still curious...anyone seen that ?
 
Could be the adCenter adsbot following your links. It really goes nuts sometimes - especially on new campaigns. So bot clicks will show as clicks in your aff dashboard, but not in adCenter account. What does your tracking logs show as the referrer for these type of clicks?

Do not used it in that campaign... will do next time, that's for sure..like. tracking 202 or so. Didn't want to give rep my campaign details or so cause they may flag/ban me, but traffic is good really. Even with 202 clicks, majority comed from 4-5 keywords, probably even not so related. Much easier to get ROI then with media buys LOL
 
Their Ad dsektop tool don't even install, it open IE window after you click next few times and just drops...
 
Adcenter desktop can be a pain in the ass to install. If you are having errors you might think about re-installing windows just to get it installed (its that buggy). Also, I find that adcenter's reporting is usually 3 - 4hrs behind. So, i only check stats the next morning for the day before.
 
bing reporting is delayed by 3 hrs atleast + NB tracks all "Bot" clicks as real clicks. they were showing 1000 clicks on a campaign which had only 20 lol, imagine
 
Yeah, seeing it already...Network like their should fix it maybe or they just think it's not important.
