Yep, I've got a question for other vendors ...

I recently promoted an offer, and I noticed that I was getting hops to three different vendor accounts.

How is it that if I send people to a CB link, my affiliate account name is somehow passed to the other Clickbank links as well?

Example: I sent an email blast with the following link:
http://myownaffid.bigassmoney.hop.clickbank.net/

In doing so, I should see hops in my analytics that are all connected to the "bigassmoney" vendor account.

However, when I look, I'm also getting hops to "bigasscash" and "bigassdough." I get that the owner of the first one just probably has links to his others, but I am curious. How is it that it was able to pass my affiliate cookie to the other two?

Thanks.

To be honest my CB products are REALLY out of date (like at least 2 years) but I remember them talking about allowing you to do multiple products from 1 vendor account instead of having to open an account and pay the $50 per product. My guess would be that this is a result of that and if they're linking to another product from their sales page it will pass the cookie.

Just a guess though.
