Here is an announcement from Clickbank today announcing that you now can add tracking codes to your hop links to track where your sales come from.
New Account Management, Promotion Tracking, & Transaction Analytics!
2006-11-14 -
ClickBank is pleased to announce the release of its redesigned account management system, promotion tracking capability, and a beta version of transaction analytics. For more information about these enhancements, please refer to the "November Release Summary".
The redesigned account management system includes updated navigation, more comprehensive reporting, and new application features to enhance your productivity while managing your account(s). The promotion tracking enhancement allows affiliates to add an 8-character tracking code to the hoplink and order process, providing the ability to accurately track and manage their campaigns. The transaction analytics beta is a tool for fundamental business analysis. Both vendors and affiliates will benefit from the visibility this feature provides into their business, product and partner performance.
Ways I plan to use this tracking code
1 - to see which PPC search engine sends me the most valuable traffic - i.e. do I get more sales from Google or Yahoo!
2 - to see which page on my site generates the highest sales
3 - to see what location on my page converts the best
The options are unlimited. Yes it is more work but think about this when you are adding these tracking codes and testing. There are 2 things that can increase your income online 1 - more traffic and 2 - higher conversion rates. If you can determine what sells better on your page and increase your conversion rates with the same traffic then as your traffic increases you will be making even more money!
