DoubleClick Performics has been making improvements to their ConnnectCommerce platform as part of their affiliate marketing product development initiatives in 2007 that focus on improving the overall speed and scalability of their systems and improving publisher productivity.

A release on Saturday, June 9 included a significant boost to the database systems and operating hardware. This upgrade is intended to improve processing time for all ConnectCommerce users.

In addition, the recent release includes two feature enhancements for publishers:

• Advertiser Display Information: Improvement to the interface related to advertiser information, specifically adding a commissions column to each advertiser view. You can see the commission column when looking for new advertisers to join and when viewing all information for “approved,” “pending” and “declined” advertisers. In addition, commission information has been added to the “Agreement & Terms” section.
• Pending View: Publishers can now more easily access information related to pending orders with a “Pending Only” toggle. With this feature you can better understand the status and impact of outstanding orders. You can view the Pending Orders via a toggle within the following reports: “Activity,” “Advertisers,” “Links,” “Links Detail,” “Creative Size” and “Creative Type.”
