Hey everyone...
I was updating my website to remove AF’s shadow shopper and I noticed clickbanks ‘typehome’ offer is not working for me! I’m on my way out the door for my moms birthday…but wanted to let you guys know about it.
Be back later… Lori

Thanks for the heads up.
I thought the Clickbank sales were light today. I saw on another forum that Clickbank is doing something new with the publishers and some of them were having problems. Might not be a bad idea to check all of your clickbank links.

Thanks Lori,
Appreciate the information. It's not working for us, either.
Just replace our links.

Good thing some of us are alert. Thanks for watching our back. It's not a good sign when these companies suddenely disappear. But I have noticed some others have had an error for a day or two and express survey site only displayed a header. Thanks again for the info.

Yes Lori, thank you. I changed mine last night to a different "type at home" campaign. Thanks again!

But I have noticed some others have had an error for a day or two and express survey site only displayed a header. Thanks again for the info. Darwin Hi Darwin, I'm not sure if the problem still exists or if they fixed it by now, but if you're interested there was a brief discussion on this problem with the Express Paid Surveys site at the following link, along with the fix (at least, from the visitor's point of view...the webmasters there need to fix their code a bit if they haven't already): erichw33.proboards53.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1153915963&page=1#1154216451Since I now have the needed plug-in installed, I can't say for certain whether the same problem will still occur for others or not. Hopefully this is resolved soon before too many sales are lost. It should be noted that all sites will experience glitches and downtime on occasion, which is why everyone needs to stay on top of their sites and the various offers presented on them to make sure that they are all current and in working condition. A brief glitch for just a few minutes isn't a cause for concern, but an offer that is down for any amount of time should be replaced with another offer that works. Thanks Lori for giving everyone the heads-up and for your due diligence. Troy

Troy I contacted express surveys via email, their return email said they did not see where they were having any problems. So I sent them another email and have not heard back. It works in IE, but not in Firefox. I know I am not the only one with this on my site, but I will probably take it off and replace tomorrow if I don't hear from them and they don't get the problem fixed.

I just checked again and Type At Home is working Fine. Also Express Paid Surveys is now working in Mozilla Firefox. Guess I don't have to take them off my site afterall! Zeta

I know I am not the only one with this on my site, but I will probably take it off and replace tomorrow if I don't hear from them and they don't get the problem fixed. It probably worked for them because they already had the Flash plug-in installed...it worked fine for me in Firefox too *after* I installed that plug-in. The most surefire way for them to test it is to do a clean install of Firefox on another computer that has never had it and then try viewing their site immediately afterwards. That's pretty much what I did since my Firefox was hardly used before viewing that site, so I had no add-ons or anything by that point. Oh well, at least you tried Zeta...most people probably wouldn't have even troubled themselves to try contacting the site owners about the problem and just moved on to a different offer. Troy Edit: I have another computer here so I just tried installing Firefox on it and trying their site again since I wanted Firefox on it anyway, and it worked this time...apparently they either fixed the coding error or there was a bug in Firefox that the most recent update I just got fixed.

Hello Again,
Thanks for that Troy I will check it out and see if it has changed.
I checked my site and was having no luck connecting too. I went to clickbank and it connected but with a totally new look. Now just home from the school and my site connects just fine but with a totally new landing page. I guess they were just updating but didn't bother telling us.
Yes Express paid surveys is back to its old self again.
We have an intelligence network that would make the army proud.
Thaks all.
Darwin

Very good advice Troy…it is so important to keep an eye on our sites. I was glad to see ‘typehome’ was back in action. Your very welcome everyone...I just did what anyone else would have done…we are all here to help each other. Lori

Doesn't this forum just make life so much easier! Without it we would have to constantly be checking our links and scanning many other forums for any tip-offs on the latest offers in and out. Thank you Lori for bringing this to our attention, I did take action straight away and replaced both Shadow Shopper and Type At Home. I'm not too worried that Type At Home has come back, it did get quite a few sales previously but HomeTypers pipped them on this, so I've kept the strongest one that's working for me, plus un-cluttering my site with similar types of WAH Opps. I'm hoping that the two I've added will replace and increase the money I was making from Type At Home, we'll see, I guess I can always add it back again if I need to.
Regards,
Jim
