DON'T issue your codes at the start of the month.
If you think about this for a moment it really is a no-brainer. Codes can make you many more sales and they're the perfect way to increase your media coverage so think about how your code is used on code sites.
As a code site owner I've just spent hours adding and updating all the codes issued on the first of the month. In common with many code sites on our code site new codes cycle through the home page which gets the most traffic BUT because everyone else's codes are also being added your codes fall off our home page often on the same day they are issued when there's a lot of new codes.
Merchant Code Tip #1
Reset your dairy and release your codes in the third week of the month. Not only will your codes stay on the home page much longer but people generally get paid towards the end of the month so it's a double whammy.
Stay tuned for more tips...

This doesn't work because they release the code in the 3rd week but they still get it to expire on the 31st.
That should be your next tip. Stop having codes expire on the 31st.
Hi Ray, true, but you've made the point for me/them.
Thats a bit of a generalisation Ray but i do agree several do.
Another tip would be to not issue codes with short 1-2 day expiry dates, alot of these just simply get ignored by me, particularly for a merchant who i don't already have listed on the site.
