My link isn't working. What should I do?

  1. Make sure that your code is the same as the link-generated code given to you. Some programs may alter code after it's cut and pasted.

  2. Make sure the links are going through ByRegion's server and that the links include your Referral ID.

  3. Make sure there are no extra spaces or hard returns in the code.

  4. E-mail affiliate@byregion.net explaining the problem and listing the URL where the link is located. Be sure to also include your browser type.

TRACKING AND PAYMENT

How much will I be paid?
A referral fee will be paid each time a visitor from your website signs as a WebDisplay Member. If you are a WebDisplay Member you will be paid according to the Advanced Referral Program payment schedule. If you are not a WebDisplay Member you will be paid according the Basic Referral Program.

How often do members get paid?
ByRegion affiliates are paid monthly (within 30 days after the end of the previous month. If your revenue for any month is less than $50, the total amount will be carried to the next month. After your revenue reaches $50 or more, a check will be sent to you.

How are orders tracked and credited to my site?
All links from your site to ByRegion contain your site's unique Referral ID which tracks each time a visitor from your site purchases a credit report. Important: To ensure that you receive proper credit, you must use the Links Page each time you create a link to ByRegion.

I operate more than one web site. Can you track them separately but pay me with one check?
Yes. You can have multiple sites under one ByRegion Affiliate Account. To set them up, please contact us at affiliate@byregion.net and provide the name(s) and URLs of the additional sites. You will then be able to create links specifically for each site and generate separate reports for each site. You will receive one check for all of your sites.

MS FRONTPAGE USERS

Why do I have problems when I try to copy and paste the codes to my FrontPage Editor?
If you use FrontPage to paste links from our Links Page, you may experience problems because FrontPage encodes certain items (e.g. ampersands) in the link code. You can avoid this problem in one of two ways. The easiest way to avoid problems when pasting codes using FrontPage is to follow these steps:

  1. Open the FrontPage page editor for the page you want to edit.

  2. Choose Insert from the main menu.

  3. Select FrontPage Component. A dialog box appears.

  4. Choose Insert HTML. A dialog box appears.

  5. Paste the link code you want to insert here.

  6. Click OK.

A manual way to avoid this problem is also available.

  1. Open the FrontPage page editor for the page you want to edit.

  2. Click the HTML tab at the bottom of the page. This lets you modify the HTML directly; however, FrontPage will check the HTML you enter and may encode it.

  3. In order to avoid this encoding, type the code as it is in the banners page.

    Note: If you add links in either of these ways, they will not appear in the FrontPage editor and will only appear after you publish.
