Dear Friends,
In this issue:
- Affiliate Commission Hijacking Alert
- Review: Article Manager 1.23
In two weeks I'll be in Seattle (Oct 22) and Denver (Oct 23) for the final stops in the Doctor Ebiz® Internet Marketing Seminar Tour. I hope you'll do whatever is necessary to attend. My clear, practical approach will help your business get on
track to success. As a special learning bonus I'm giving those who register for the seminar
all nine e-books (www.wilsonweb.com/ebooks)
I have published -- worth $194.25. I hope you'll check the airline schedules and find a way to be at one of the last two Seminars.

The first article in this issue concerns you if you are an affiliate or a merchant with an affiliate program. It may affect many dollars of potential income or liability. Read it carefully.
God bless you,
Dr. Ralph F. Wilson, Editor
Affiliate Commission Hijacking Alert
Are your affiliate commissions down? A substantial slice of the affiliate referrals sent from your website may getting hijacked by widespread browser plug-ins intent on stealing your commission. The affiliate networks -- BeFree!, LinkShare, Commission Junction, and TradeDoubler -- will be talking about a solution on November 7, but will they take into account the concerns of the vast army of small business affiliates? I hope so. In this article I make specific recommendations for both affiliates and merchants who run affiliate programs. I hope you'll read the article and then write a thoughtful note to the major affiliate networks with your thoughts. Read the Article
