    Introducing Vikki Hearne

    Author: Hannah Luckie; Filed under: Meet the Team; Tagged as: ,

    Yet another new member of staff joins us in the CJ offices in the avant-garde, recondite and trailblazing London district of Putney.  Notable residents (past and present) of Putney (according to Wikipedia) include Sir Richard Branson, Clement Atlee, Marc Bolan, Simon Le Bon and Bobby Moore. We have great pleasure in announcing a new addition to this list – Vikki Hearne, who is the new Account Manager at CJ.

    Vikki has joined us in Emmanuel’s team to support him strategically and tactically with the portfolio he oversees as Account Director. Would you like to know more about Vikki? Let me start with a photo of her which looks like a happy holiday snap.

    How will the newest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer 8, currently in beta release, with it’s InPrivate Browsing(TM)  functionality which prevents browsers from retaining cookies, affect the affiliate marketing industry? Will purchases still be tracked and accredited to the advertiser’s affiliate programme?

    Commission Junction’s Craig Battles, from our US office, has written about this on the Affiliate Summit website. Click here to take a look.

Tip of the Week


"A large proportion of publishers I know own dozens if not hundreds of domain names. Later on they regret having purchased so many as they don't have the time to build websites for them. Also they don't attract the amount of type-in traffic they were hoping for. Therefore discipline yourself to only buy domain names that you must have.

Be cautious of hype-ridden new TLD releases. There is currently a lot of hysteria surrounding .co domain names, but they could end up being just as much of a damp squib as .tel, .ws and other TLDs. One thing many people are not aware of is a .co domain is seen by Google by default as a local Colombian domain; great if you want to rank well in Colombia, not so great if you wish to use it for a UK site."
