    my previous posts - that had lists of links were taken directly from Jane@cm's amazon capsules.

    On two separate occasions I refreshed her hub 10 times and copied the link out into the reply in this thread, her amazon id was never served. With or without the linkchecker that brought the issue to her attention, she certainly is not having her associate id served on her pages.

    the Hubpages id is served 40% time PERIOD *(almost), across all affiliate programs.

    The bestdeals id that you mention lily, is most likley the id of your referrer, when you refer someone to hubpages their id gets served on 10% of hubpages side of the impressions

    I havent checked in a while, so my percentage could be off...but thasts why you would see another id in your capsule on your page besides hubpages own id

    Thanks for the clarification, Sunforged.  Perhaps Jane still has a problem, but I realized that she was pasting her hub's url instead of the link's url into the link tracker...hope she figures out the problem.

    I thought HP's ID got 40% showing with AdSense only, not all affiliate programs - now I get it.

    As far as the other id, I have no referrals yet.  Well, actually, it shows 3 people have signed up under my tracker but zero hubs to date, so that couldn't be it...

    the impression is given to the person who refers you....not a person you referred

    as for those 3 people you referred, they could never write a single hub and refer 1000's of people instead, their ids would still be served in a percentage of those referrals written hubs.

    if your referrals write a hub, their hubs will on occasion have your ids within them
