Clicks not being recorded

[theprodigy101]

I've been iframing an offer sending traffic through search- Adwords is showing me hundreds of clicks, but the network (and I've tried two different networks for this iframe) show me 0 or sometimes 3 or 4 clicks. Really fucking strange. What's even stranger is that I'l have 4 clicks and a conversion on top of that and it'll show me an $8 EPC.

I have no idea what's going on - I thought it was the networks but apparently not...stupid question - when iFraming an offer and redirecting through tracking202...is the network's tracking going to show that as an impression or a click if my ad destination url is my t202 link. I thought it would be recorded as clicks, but when I see 0 clicks and like 17 impressions I'm thinking that might be true (even though that doesn't add up to the total number of clicks I sent from google)

It sounds like you're using the contextual link from a DirectTrack network, as those count as impressions and not clicks. As for why two different networks would not even be close in either impressions or clicks, it's beyond me. Are both networks DirectTrack networks? I'd try some test iframe offers with different sub-ids, perhaps from different computers, in order to test to see if your test clicks/redirects count properly. Also, try to pull a different link for the same campaign from the network, as well.

By the way, how did skiing/snowboarding at Mountain Creek go last month? I ended up going to Shawnee for better snow conditions/more trails.

Thanks bro. Yeah I think I might be using the wrong link, I'll test out a different one. Well one is on A4D and the other is on Neverblue. Same issue on both - it might have to do with the script I'm running as it's not a simple iframe.

If changing the link doesn't work, I'm gonna PM you my lp - maybe you'll see something I'm not catching.

Skiing was awesome - we ended up going to Hidden Valley which was about five minutes away from MC. First time so I def busted my ass on the mountain. It was a good time though, I should try out Shawnee next time.
