The problem of not tracking your results...

The problem of not tracking your result is that you don't know how the heck you get the sale!

Today, I received a $101 Clickbank commission. It was for one of the product that I am promoting and I have forgotten all about that review website.

Heck, I don't even know which keyword it is from, where did the visitors came from.

But then, $101 is a nice number for me...

Wait are you saying that you don't use tracking?

Clickbank allows you to use tracking. It is a great way to know where you are sending sales from.

Now you can seriously consider utilizing the tracking option and replicate your success.

Btw, Congratulation for your sales!

Precisely, if I had used the tracking tool I would have known how to replicate the success. Now I have to restart from scratch and start guessing.

Maybe I can start from Awstats...

That's great.

Just log-in into my clickbank account and notice they will sent me a check for $637.63 on 2 Sept 2009.

Not a fantastic amount when compared to my eBay days when I log-in into my paypal account and will see a four digit amount daily.

But at least I am starting to make money on affiliates marketing

. Hopefully I can get the same income within the next 6 months.

It always good news to hear people are actually earning. And I always say that you should be replicating the success instead of re-inventing the wheel.

Congratulations!

Great work and congrats on your successful sale.

If you are buying ppc for promoting clickbank products, there is still no way to know which content site (where the adwords ad appeared) generated a click through and a sale.

Most of the affiliate networks offer tracking, of course Google Analytics will help as well too.

If you are using the any of the PPC, they also offer a tracking system too.
