We use this software to track almost every ad we place. On banner ads, button ads, text-link ads, sponsorship of newsletters and Ezines, and so on. It's critically important that we track everything to see which ads are successful and which ones aren't. We'd never be able to track this number of ads without using our Associate Program software as our ad-tracking software! There would just be too much paperwork to do (it would be a full-time job just to track and record this information). But with an associate program, you can assign as many numbers as you want to your ads and it takes care of all the tracking for you. For every promotion you do, for every joint venture you do, every special deal you do, every ad that you place can have a different number enabling you to get some very detailed statistics and information. You will see which ones are profitable and which ones aren't. I know I have said this over and over in this article, but it is that important! Do not underestimate the power of this… the power to see which ads are working… which ads are not… and where you are making your money online. Ok, as you can tell, I am getting a little excited here so I'd better cool down for a moment (I just love talking about making money and automating things!). Let's go even a little further. Say you are doing a promotion in a newsgroup (I talk about how to do newsgroup promotions and get tremendous results in my Internet Marketing Course, click here to check it out)... you assign yourself an associate number and put that associate URL in the signature portion... you can check exactly how many visitors you got from that one promotion, how many sales you got, not just the one time, but over and over and over again. You can assign a different associate number, and track every single promotion separately. Use it when you do a free classified ad promotion. In other words you assign yourself an associate number, use that, and it will tell you exactly how many visitors and sales you got. This way you know exactly how many visitors you get from classified ads vs. how many visitors you got from the banner ads you placed. How many visitors you got from an Ezine sponsorship ad you placed vs. how many visitors you got from trading links with somebody. It will also help you pinpoint problems. For example, if your stats say that 500 visitors came to the site, no one bought… either you have a very misleading ad attracting "unqualified" visitors, or you may have a webpage or sales material which is not doing a good job at converting visitors into sales. All of this is invaluable information! Let's even go one step further to show you the uses for this. You don't have to rely on what people want you to believe... when you can get the cold, hard facts! For example if someone approaches you to trade links... they could claim that, "I have 20,000 visitors coming to my site a month and you are probably going to get a 5% click through." in reality they may only have 2,000 visitors coming through their site! By assigning an associate number to the link you can find out exactly how many visitors are actually clicking through the reciprocal link and coming to your site. And if you find that they are not sending you enough visitors, you can cancel your reciprocal link agreement. Do you see the advantages of this? The benefits are huge. You can track it all. The advantages are just incredible! You just HAVE to start tracking your advertising this way today! So that is the "secret weapon" our Associate Program software gives us. Just the ad tracking capabilities, in my opinion, are worth the Associate Program software purchase alone. It really gives you power with your advertising dollar. For details on some of the most powerful associate program software on the market Click Here This is a really, really good way of using Associate Programs in a unique and creative manner. Let me reword that. Even if you don't use the software for your own Associate Program, but use it for ad-tracking... it is worth every penny! It will allow you to know for sure where you are making money and where you are losing money. It will help you streamline your business, making it a lean mean money machine...by taking out the ads that don't work and keeping ads that do work, and testing new ones over and over again.
