How to track PPC conversions?

[VictorVC]

I use both adwords and Microsoft Adcenter. I am looking to be able to track my conversions from each PPC site. I do not have a "Thank You" or "Check Out" page that I can tag because any sales that I make are through clicks on a link that goes offsite to an affiliate company that I receive commission from. However, the link on my site is a "Buy Now" button, so to get some idea of which source is giving me better conversions I'd like to know whether adcenter or adwords is sending more people that end up clicking this link. Canb anyone suggest a way or a program to set up in this manner? Thanks in advance for your help!

Looked into one but I don't think it will work. Plus they are $15-$30 a month. I'd do it if all else fails but someone told me that I could proboably set it up in Analytics as a goal but I can't figure it out.

All I am looking to do is determine is: Traffic Source (adwords/adcenter) + click on my "buy now" button = conversion.

Appreciate that you're trying to help. I gave it a shot but that when I try to add the first step to the head section it tells me that it is not a valid script.
