Thread: Anyone tried google affiliate program with web proxies?

any good news?

Probably not. It logically won't work - people don't access proxies at home (usually), its either at school or work. If even somebody clicked the link, the cookie would be stored on their school/work computer where they aren't going to be buying anything.

I don't think Greyhound is talking about cookie stuffing Or aren't you neither?

Whaaa

No, I mean in order for affiliate programs to work - you need to buy the product on the same computer as the one that you clicked the link on. Since most people use proxies at school/work and don't buy things from those computers, it wouldn't work.
