Is it the darkside and a sad day? Don't be so melodramatic! Our code section represents a mere fraction of the work we do, so perhaps you should do a bit more research! All codes are valid and are only one's from networks/merchants, there are no 1x1 pixel iframes, there are no merchants listed that don't have codes, all codes that expired get closed off and a visitor can't get them nor can they set a cookie. And here's the thing Steve - if it doesn't work, I can switch the code back to be open in minutes - but at least it (like Kieron's blog) brings it to the public domain for network clarification and discussion!

They then look for one and take it off a site and plug it into the transaction process. If it is present on the site then they'll cut and paste. If not they'll open up and the cookie is dropped. I'd be interested to see what the average click to buy time is for discount code sites as against content sites .... p.s. my site uses the numpty method in the short term - for a reason.

A sad day indeed as loquax goes to the dark side of affiliate marketing!
