How do I track the referrer of my opt in?

How do I track the referrer of my opt in?

My lead impact campaign is ready, but I just can't figure out prosper202. Do I have to add the lead impact code as a parameter?

I just want to know where my opt-ins are coming from.

tutorials? advice? I've been blowing my brains out for days watching videos.

    Depends on what system you're using.

    In aweber you can create a custom hidden field where you specify your traffic source and create several optin forms, one for each traffic source. With a bit of PHP programming you can send this source variable dynamically (for example www.yoursite.com/?source=CAMPAIGN1 )

      My Click Boss looks interesting however its $87. I know there are options out there that are cheaper.

      Any other ideas? Certainly prosper202 will track where my opt-ins cam from. People tell me it does.

      other ideas?

        using bevo affportal tracks all types of traffic sources but if your looking for a tracking solution on your own server nothing is better then Imobitrax. I do have multiple licenses. nothing beats these tracking platform from my experiences.

        I find cpvlab and p202 too clunky and heavy, even on a dedicated server. imobitrax is super fast and light weight and bevo being hosted on amazon. traffic is being tracked and all other tokens/subids with my conversions stats. Dont forget that all referral data is gathered just not if visitors come from a HTTPS domain.

          Ya, I like the less clunky ideas, but I also like google analytics because it would seem to lag the server less while visitors are coming in. With a hosted script, they have to go through it to get to the opt in page, but using google analytics, they just go to the opt in page and all is tracked.

          Im getting some good tracking from google analytics, but yes its not super fluent. Im kinda all over the place trying to figure it out.

          googles "goals" do seem really nice tho. It tracks the referrals to any specific page. I also like the real time stats. ehh, but I bet bevo and others are way better huh. I just havent tested them yet.

          I'd really just like a nice free way of tracking my opt in referrals.

      Yes I would also second My Click Boss. It has many features and also there is very good support so it is worth the price.

    I personally use hypertracker to track optins via leadimpact so
    I can drill down to the exact keyword that created the optin.

      Exactly. That works!

      That prosper202 thingy: I have tried several times to make that work but
      honestly I never got it to work for me.

      And I am not particularly technically challenged. Usually I am able to get everything to work but the 202 thingy is just a little complicated.

    I'm using ClickMeter is great for opt in tracking because have a double conversion tracking feature and it's ok for keywords because record the referrer of every click and from there is easy to extract keywords without having to write complicate codes. It may result little expensive $34/mo.

    As stated earlier "hypertracker" is one of the best option to cloak at the same time track your clicks and visitors.

    Apart from that every reputed Autoresponder company...Now have tracking installed within their server. You can take help of those tracking systems as well.

    Thanks,
