It seems to be a common occurrence for Ali Mama Union affiliates to lose orders, and it's almost every day that you can encounter affiliate webmasters on the Union forum who complain about losing orders due to black box operations. In any case, Ali Mama Union is still considered one of the more inclusive affiliate networks in China; otherwise, there wouldn't be so many cheating webmasters inside. Of course, tolerance is one aspect, but fairness is another. In terms of fairness, Ibu website administrators still tend to favor Ali Mama Union. There are many reasons why order losses occur.

Many Taobao Guest webmasters, if they don't have income for a long time, will buy things from their own websites, thereby saving a considerable amount of money. However, sometimes mysterious order loss phenomena may occur. Below is a brief analysis of possible reasons for order losses. If none of these are the cause of your order loss, then you might have encountered a black box operation!

In fact, many store owners nowadays are not honest, especially those with high commissions. For example, a single item with 50% commission may be promoted by the store owner today, and many webmasters put up the advertisement. The next day, the store owner cancels this promotion, and after that, there will no longer be any commission. Many webmasters think the store owner will continue promoting indefinitely, which is a very easy misconception. Store owners aren't stupid; naturally, they will try all methods to save on commissions, and occasionally stopping the promotion of high-commission items is normal.

I. Website Promotion PID being modified

I'm not sure if netizens have noticed that sometimes when using a browser, you may find pop-up windows at the bottom left corner of some websites. Of course, most advertisements are from the websites themselves, but currently, many advertisements are pushed by broadband operators. A few years ago, there were reports that broadband operators pushed their own Taobao Guest links, automatically popping out shopping windows. It's uncertain whether this could be a reason for order losses, but broadband service providers can also affect promotional links.

IV. Issues with Broadband Service Providers

Apart from the above common reasons, malicious software can also lead to black box operations. Additionally, some versions of the Firefox browser now have built-in Taobao Guest tracking codes. This is a gift customized by the Firefox company for users who promote daily downloads and installations. Therefore, using this browser may also result in order losses. Currently, the number and types of browsers with built-in tracking codes are gradually increasing, making the causes of order losses more complex.

Nowadays, many Taobao Guests like to use free programs, free hosting, and free websites for promotion. In reality, many free programs, especially cracked ones, have backdoors. Program crackers can easily modify your promotional PID. You may see your own PID on the website, but after clicking the link, a redirection occurs, changing the PID. Also, free hosting and free websites may have similar issues where others can easily modify your PID.

VI. Reasons related to other commonly used software

V. Store Owner Cancels Promoted Products

II. Non-standard promotional link code

This is also a very common problem. Nowadays, many Taobao Guests use free programs to automatically call product information. If the program calls product information with non-standard promotional links, it may result in not receiving commissions. Ali Mama Union periodically adjusts promotional links. If your website program continues to use the original promotional link, then orders placed after shopping may not be counted, leading to order losses.

If you have analyzed all the above reasons and still believe that there are no problems with your website, browser, or store owner, then congratulations, you might have encountered a black box operation. The Union system is not 100% accurate, and occasional statistical omissions are allowed.

Not long ago, 360 launched a shopping assistant plugin. In fact, such plugins have existed for a long time, and many are malicious. You may not remember when you installed them, but installing unknown plugins can happen when watching movies or downloading software. If your browser has such plugins, then regardless of how you shop, you may not receive commissions.
