  Hi there

  I just switched to a different affiliate program with ratuken linkshare and whereas I can see that people are clicking my links on ratuken’s site, the admin panel in wordpress does not show those links being clicked at all. the url begins with click.linksynergy.com and then my affiliate link

  Are those types of links ignored by the free wordpress.com system?

  I did try and look around these forums for an answer before posing this question

  thank you

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m happy to investigate this for you.

  Can you tell me how many clicks on click.linksynergy.com links you believe you should have gotten yesterday? (January 14)

  Do you use the same affiliate links anywhere else–like on Facebook or Twitter?

  Have you clicked on any of the links yourself?

  Any detail you can provide will be helpful!

  Hi lizthefair,

  Based on yesterday’s stats, as far as I can tell – I should have had 505 clicks. No, I don’t publish those links to fb and twitter. Yes, I have clicked on my own links to test them out.

  I’m checking with our stats team. I’ll let you know what I find out.

  Hi cbiancardi,

  We do sometimes prevent clicks to websites for showing up in stats but since it’s part of our spam fighting work we don’t discuss what gets blocked or how.

  I’m afraid that’s really all I can tell you.
