Direct Link Tracking allows affiliates to link directly to your site without the need for an affiliate link.
This is a major incentive for your affiliates, and may help earn you more money.
How does Direct Link Tracking work?
When the Direct Link Tracking add-on is activated, affiliates will be able to enter their domain (or domains) into their Affiliate Area on your site. Once they have submitted a domain for approval, and it is approved by the site administrator, the affiliate can link directly to your site, from theirs, without using their referral link.
When a visitor clicks the link on the affiliate’s website and arrives on your site, the domain is looked up in the database. If the domain belongs to an affiliate, that affiliate’s ID is stored in the browser’s cookies, just like a normal affiliate link.
If the customer then goes on to complete a purchase (or a conversion), a referral will be created for the affiliate.
