    I’ve sent out a mailer containing a link to Golden Tiger but there has been a problem.

    I went to Marketing Tools > Linking Codes > Free Play Linking Codes

    There, it shows my link correct, including my aff tag. However – and I didn’t notice this until too late – when I used ‘copy shortcut’ in IE7 and pasted it into my mailer, it does NOT copy the full URL but instead gave me:
    http://www.goldentigercasino.com/referral.asp?url=freehour.asp&aff_id=aff

    Every casino’s link on this page does the same thing – ie. NOT include the affiliates aff tag!

    Hi FictionNet (et al)

    My apologies, this was a simple programming error on my part… there were 3 of the links on the page that had this. Obviously if you had highlighted and copied/pasted there would not have been an error here, however I have fixed this now so by copying shortcut it should have the aff id in there…

    My other concern is that you should NOT be using these links in a mailer anyway..
    There are a list of mailer linking codes here: http://www.rewardsaffiliates.com/members/affiliate/linking-codes-mailer.asp
    Or by going to Marketing Tools > Linking Codes > Mailer Linking Codes

    We haven’t added a mailer linking code for the play-4-free site because there has never been a demand for it, however, if you need a mailer linking code for the play-4-free site, please let me know and I will get one made for you…

    I cannot stress enough that the regular links should NOT be used in mailers..

    I wrote the e-mail content myself, and added the standard-format link URL to it. Why should that not be used in a mailer?

    Because we use different urls to help deliverability and becuase there are some over zealous people who report all casino emails as spam, we keep our main domains out of all mailers.

    Cheers
