Re: Gross over-reporting of traffic by LookSmart?

I don't like the way Looksmart co-operate with their
advertisers at all.
I tried to get them to append a tracking code so that we
could really see if they were sending us buyers or just
clicks and they refused with some feeble excuse that was
not relevant. Their refusal simply aided them to hide
from us how good (or bad) they really in in terms of ROI.

There are plenty of others with gripes against LS.
Have a look at http://searchenginewatch.com/sereport/02/06-lawsuit.html.
Or, http://www.webposition.com/mp-0502.htm which has some
telling sections.

Plenty of miserable LS clients on here also -
