| How to Make Your Own Tracking Links
Are you tired of promoting your site and your affiliate programs
and not knowing what's working and what's not?
If your web host offers stats that at least let you know what
page's people are going to. This will work for you.
Below you will find a simple HTML code to use to make your own
redirect pages. You can use it for pages on your site and use a
different name for them.
Say the URL to the page you want to advertise in a particular
eZine or classified is http://www.yourdomain.com/products.html
put this link in the HTML code below in this area of the code.
Now name it with a different name such as product2.html and save
it to your web site files. Next upload this page to your site.
Now when you place your ad list the URL in it as:
http://www.yourdomain.com/products2.html
This URL will redirect to:
http://www.yourdomain.com/products.html but will show in your
stats as: http://www.yourdomain.com/products2.html
When you check your stats you will be able to see exactly how
many hits you received from the eZine or classified or wherever
you placed your ads. You can also do this with your affiliate
programs following the same instructions as above. This will
also make your affiliate links look better.
To keep track of your advertising, here is an example of a file
to set up. Say you want to use the same ad and test several
different ways to promote it. Simply make your file like this.
1. Yahoo ads http:/ hisaffiliateprogram.com the redirect page
file will be named thisaffiliateprogram1.html and you will list
it in your ad as: http://www.yourdomain.com
hisaffiliateprogram1.html
2. eZine Number 1
http:/ hisaffiliateprogram.com http://www.yourdomain.com
hisaffiliateprogram2.html
3. eZine Number 2
http:/ hisaffiliateprogram.com http://www.yourdomain.com
hisaffiliateprogram3.html
Get the Idea? Just continue making and uploading these redirect
pages to your site until you have all on your list done.
Also on each redirect page be sure to list your title,
description and keywords. If your site is spidered by search
engines, they will very often pick these-up.
Here is the code.
Put Your Title Here<

Very Important: Be sure to check each one of the redirect page
links to make sure they are working before you place your ads.
