Formal Request to PrimeQ

[Qui Gon Jinn]

After careful consultation between the moderators, this is a polite formal request to PrimeQ to ascertain which programs within your network have closed brand bidding groups, and ask to please submit these to the forum & include within the merchant information details within their own interface.

This will assist towards transparency & a fairer environment for affiliates.

Please could you also confirm that you don't do any ppc at network or employee level, or at least don't make themselves members of closed groups at the same time?

We'd be grateful if you could supply this information and help alleviate some of the issues that have arisen due to closed group activity.

Thank you for your co-operation.

Thank you for posing these questions as PrimeQ believes all networks should be transparent about their closed group brand bidding policies.

PrimeQ does not engage in paid search marketing for any of our clients.

We do not permit staff to engage in any form of PPC for any program on our network. This includes both brand and generic search terms.

PrimeQ does not set up closed groups where only a select number of affiliates are permitted to engage in paid search marketing for clients. Unless guidelines are imposed by a merchant, agency or network contrary to our wishes, we enable all affiliates to engage in PPC marketing on an equal footing to promote our merchants.

PrimeQ believes in the free market; we believe each affiliate should have an equal chance to conduct paid search marketing and have an equal opportunity to generate income from our campaigns.

If anybody has any questions about our search marketing policies, or requires assistance with carrying out paid search marketing for any of our advertisers, you are welcome to email Nadeem Azam on nazam AT primeq.co.uk or call him on 0800 018 5600 anytime.
