How do I track my Youtube affiliate links

11 replies
Hi Everyone. I have 9 videos on youtube for a particular CB product. They are all pretty much the same video, yet they have different titles. One of them brings me about a few sales a week, but I dont know which one it is.
2 of them have way more views than the other 7 but how do I know which of the 2 is consistently bringing the sales?
Thanks in advance.

    If you are using same URL, you really can not find out which video make you more sale.

    Here are my suggestions,
    1. Open 9 clickbank accounts
    2. Only test 2 videos
    3. Only test 7 videos
    4. Create 9 domains redirect to affiliate link, track them in Google Analytic.

    But number 4 can only let you know which one gain more traffic.

    Thanks in advance.
    Could you direct them each to a different URL? Or even have some variable in the same URL to distinguish?

    Sub-Id tracking would work perfect.

    It is the most practical way, and you don't need to create multiple accounts, or stop running any videos.

      Keep it simple, just use the clickbank TID in your urls with a unique value for each video. Your clickbank reports will show you where the conversions are coming from.

    Not pretty familiar with Clickbank though.

    But you can try Pretty Link Pro a wordpress plugin with tracking system, there's a free version of it too.

    Pretty Link work pretty much like bit.ly but you're in full control of changing your destination links etc with one click.

    So when offer expire this situation occur, I basically change my destination link to prevent losing sales. And therefore I need not to login every website and change all links required.

      Pretty Link Pro is great, but I still stick with my recommendation of sub-ids.
