Beginers Guide to Tracking Links on High Profits

[jonnyellins]

Hey affiliates!

If you're unsure about link codes on High Profits then here's some quick info:
You must send any visitor that goes through your site with your own personal tracking links or you won't get any commissions for any sales you make! Using a tracking link for one of our products basically tells us who sent each person to that site.

Let's pretend that I'm making a page about Cash Surveys and I want people to buy 123 Cash Surveys:

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes1.jpg


Here's my site so far (it's very basic but I'm just using it as an example). It has no links so far to any products.

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes2.jpg


Start by logging into High Profits

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes3.jpg


Next we want to click on "Link Codes" (highlighted)

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes4.jpg


Now we need the link codes for the right product. I want to sell people to a cash survey site so I've chosen 123 Cash Surveys which can get me $23 per sale (highlighted)

[jonnyellins]

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes5.jpg


Here are the two linking codes for 123 Cash Surveys. Copy the one you want to use on to the clipboard or a word document

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes6.jpg


Now we need to look at the code for the webpage. Find where you want a to have a link to 123 Cash Surveys; it helps to put a link after a review with the words "Click Here" on it

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes7.jpg


Here's the tricky part; we need to surround the text with our link code.

Before the text you must have <a href="your-link-code">
and after the text you need </a>

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes8.jpg


Now upload the site to the server and test out your new link by clicking on it

[jonnyellins]

http://www.highprofits.com/images/linkcodes9.jpg


Now you should see the correct site pop up! If not go back and get the correct Link Code.

Also notice that there is some seemingly random numbers and letters in the URL address bar, this shows that you have set up the link correctly :D

Any questions please ask!

Hi, Jonathan
Can we (or you?) make those random numbers disappear after someone click through our affiliate links like in clickbanks or moreniche?

Jonathan, I am trying to answer fouzie question here, please let me know will this method work?

1. Paste the following script on to a notepad, save it as .html.
2. Upload it to your root folder.

#HTML#
#head#
#meta name=" " content="yourdomain.com."#
#meta name="keywords" content=""#
#/head#

#FRAMESET border=0 rows="100%,*" frameborder="no"
marginleft=0 margintop=0 marginright=0 marginbottom=0#

#frame src="http://www.123cashsurveys.com/trackidxxxxxxx"
scrolling=autoframeborder="no" border=0 noresize#

frame topmargin="0" marginwidth=0 scrolling=no
marginheight=0 frameborder="no" border=0 noresize#

#/FRAMESET#
#/HTML#

Note: replace the ## with <>

That's some nifty code their Brian, thanks :D

I don't think you need to worry too much about the tracking links in the code, most sites now fill up the address bar with all sorts of php controls.

[allstar]

Do I use the first link for each product? The first one is standard, the second says no discount and the third says discount. I don't see any affiliate number in the link or my user name.

Thanks

allstar

Standard means that the person viewing the site can get a 50% discount coupon on the product (which means you get 50% less commission but you get more people buying it).

No Discount means that they have to pay full price, there is no option to have a discount.

Discount means they get it for 50% cheaper everytime.

If you want to know what the links point to then simply copy and paste them in to the URL address bar at the top of a browser :wink:

[codexehow]

Here's an important question that I think some other people have too:

When giving the link to someone via Twitter or some other medium if we shorten it via Cligs or another URL clipper will the site still be able to track the sale?

Thanks.

[DRSharpe]

Hello

I have checked out Cli.gs and I cannot seem to find any reason why it would not work, it just sends the user through a re-direct. The simplest test if you are still unsure is to click on it a couple of times yourself - if the clicks show up in your stats (they will show as raw, not unique if you click multiple times) then the link is working

Thanks
Dave

Does HighProfits accept a .htaccess 301 redirect ? will it still track the sale correctly?
Most of my sites I use .htaccess redirect,
For example create a file named .htaccess
Redirect 301 /highprofits http://affurl

Yes 301 Re-directs are a great way to hide your affiliate link and you still get credit for any sales through those links:

I prefer this method:

Link to
"product.html"
In .htaccess use:
redirect 301 /product.html http://affcode

You may want to use exit pages though as they are a great way of tracking goals on Google analytics which can be linked to Google adwords too - here's a thread about them (http://www.highprofits.com/affiliate-forum/beginners-guide-exit-t165.html)

Hi Jonathan,

I class myself as a newbie, so please excuse any silly questions.:wink:
What are php controls?

I have been following the video tutorials on Genuine Income Streams with ref to promoting a Clickbank product. One video explains how to shorten your URL, but I have had problems accessing any sites that help you achieve this, is it a must to do this, or do you think it is not necessary ? I did like the idea of being able to mask your link.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Kel.:D

[DRSharpe]

Hi

You can use a service like http://tiny.cc/ to shorten your URL

Thanks
Dave

[jonnyellins]

You can use this php script to hide affiliate links:

<a href="http://afflink.com" onmouseover="this.href='http://www.domain.com/';" onclick="this.href='http://afflink.com';">domain name</a>

Where: "http://afflink.com" is your affiliate code and "http://www.domain.com/" is the site address without any tracking code.

You must have php enabled on your server to do this.

[blorbinilkten]

This look interesting,so far.
If there's anyone else here, let me know.
Oh, and yes I'm a real person LOL.

Hi there,
Last week I followed your procedure and put in all the correct codes on my site. I noticed early this week I wasn't getting any hits on my dashboard so I checked my google analytics report and I was drawing to my landing page and referring to the sub-pages so something was up....I rechecked all the codes against the ones in my affiliate area and the affiliate area link codes had changed by one letter in the string...The link was still working but the hits were now being counted on another account. How can this happen? Are the link codes supposed to change like that? Doesn't seem to make sense to me....

Last night I went back and updated all my links again and checked to make sure the hits were going to my account. I don't want to have to do this every day.....please help!

PM me your HighProfits username and web address and I'll take a good luck :wink:

Hello,

What I see on the main Site is only my role as an Affiliate. I want to know where I will get information for me to promote my Site by recruiting Affiliates.

Hi Krish,

You can get links for HighProfits in the "Advertising Tools" tab at the top of the site. If you promote HighProfits you'll need the "HighProfits 2nd tier" tracking links.

If someone clicks on your tracking link and then signs up to HighProfits then you'll earn 5% of whatever they earn FOR LIFE! Get your friends and family to sign upto HighProfits through your link and you could make lots of money from them for free :wink:

Regards,

[mcd3inc]

So basically this would be the same way to editting templates to ensure the correct links are clicked for your affiliates.

Krish

Hi krish,

I had the same question but I found the answer by fluke...if you log in to High Profits, your affiliate home page has 6 affiliate quick link buttons on the left side. One of them is called referrals. Click on that and you will see a graph showing all your High Profits Tier 2 referral links.

hope this helps.

Where would I post my ad without spamming this site?

the link,
are using high profit website as web site to promote products / sites
did copy and post several times, most propably been duplicated a lot ?
please help!
username anthotru

[anthotru]

it answers a lot of my thoughts, instead of a lot of this technical
stuff, some other affiliates just add my username, anthotru
and I do not have to go through all of this
do we need to go through all of this exercise
is there a good coarse in it ?

[anthotru]

This look interesting,so far.
If there's anyone else here, let me know.
Oh, and yes I'm a real person LOL.

Later,

real? a person?
do not know if you know how to spell it
all I can say is, it looks scary,
or should I say YOU look scary

[anthotru]

Thanks Brian
in your note u mention what to replace, the symbol only
do you need to replace anything else
or will it automatically track your domain or username
for the other sites obvious your need to change the product name/code
thanks again

[Lisa Lashes]

This seems really tricky to me! I am just starting out on a venture to sell false eyelashes (http://www.buyeyelashes.co.uk) it seems I am going to need all the help I can get. Can anyone tell me a good starting place!

[kevken55]

Hi, this is very helpful on link codes and pasting to my website. If i don't have a website and am using groups to get the message out - like Yahoo groups - does it work the same way?
Is it possible to mask the affiliate code in the link as some people are immediately put off by knowing it is "just an affiliate trying to make a sale"
Thanks

[hemant121]

Thanks man!! you described it very clearly:nod:
