Some types of affiliate leaks may get plugged with this new software. The concept is pretty smart and I wish I'd thought of it. What happens if you are doing PPC for a merchant and don't realize their site is down? Money down the drain, that can never be reclaimed. What happens if the program you are promoting switches to a new payment processor (like the recent Checkout debacle)? You could be sending traffic that won't be tracked and credited.
DISCLAIMER: I have not tried this software and cannot vounch for the developer, I am only passing on info I have read. But for $47 it sounds like it may be a good investment. I'm not an affiliate and not making a dime, in fact I'll send you to Neil Shearing’s Blog where I discovered the software so he can get the commission if you order.

- Alerts you via email if links are down or payment processor is changed.
- Frees you from MUNDANE tasks - such as checking for dead affiliate links, cheating vendors, server downtimes, etc.
There are many other features and a lot of them seem targeted to Clickbank programs but still worth taking a look. Get the rest of the info at
