Post Affiliate Pro DirectLink tracking - any other software which can do this?
the affiliate tracking software Post Affiliate Pro 4 has this feature:
DirectLink tracking DirectLinks is advanced feature that allows your affiliates to link directly to your site without additional parameters in the URL. So for example, instead of: http://www.yoursite.com/?a_aid=12345&a_bid=67890 you can use only: http://www.yoursite.com/ How it works Visitor referred through DirectLink is recognized by the HTTP_REFERER information sent by the browser. It is the address of the page (if any) which referred the browser to the destination page. In short, when visitor clicks on a link on affiliates page, the HTTP_REFERER will be address of affiliates page. Our system will then check this page in our database, finds that the page belongs to some affiliate, and assigns him the referral (and click). This method is dependent on browser, so it is reliable on 90-99%. All the modern browsers send this information, and with the advantages mentioned below you can use it as your main linking method. |
