LinkClicky – How To Track Affiliate Conversions

Historically, in affiliate marketing, it has been difficult to track conversions. It requires many technical skills that even the most advanced affiliate marketers lack.

Most affiliate marketers are happy enough to get a monthly conversion report. The problem is that not all traffic is created equal, especially if you send paid traffic to affiliate offers.

Having click data is not enough.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could accurately track which web page leads to a conversion and are you making money with paid ads?

With LinkClicky, now you can!

Get insight into affiliate marketing products you promote with the same level (I argue better) of analytics as if they were your own products.

What’s Wrong With Existing Affiliate Marketing Software?

I’ve looked at all of the competing link tracking services.

After much research, I decided to use ClickMeter. At the time, it was the best affiliate management software on the market.

Then they shut down their service.

That’s where LinkClicky comes in. LinkClicky makes affiliate marketing easy. No need to worry about subids, postback, and other complicated setups.

LinkClicky optionally hooks up the analytic tool Woopra for end-to-end journey analytics.

LinkClicky supercharges your affiliate marketing like no other tool.

Be more effective with your time and make more money with your online business.

Testimonials

LinkClicky has been everything we hoped it would be and more. We couldn’t be happier with the product and the service provided by Larry. We generate most of our revenue from credit card affiliate marketing. LinkClicky has give us the ability to track conversions and other actions on our website like we never thought possible.

Larry has done an excellent job in helping us implement his system seamlessly into our current setup. Everything works as promised and Larry has even gone out of his way to customize and upgrade a few parts of his product to help us get even more value out of what he has built.

I can’t recommend LinkClicky and Larry enough and we are very grateful to have found this wonderful product.
