Affiliate Program: Does anyone know how to set this up?

[edward-may]

Hi Guys

Does anyone know how I can make a affiliate programme on my website eg - I have a sales person in two of our local regions and I want to find a way I can track any sales made through them via my website so I can pay them their commission.

Any advice around this, the website is wordpress!

Cheers

Justin

I have had a couple of clients that use this system, https://tapfiliate.com/integrations/wordpress-affiliate-marketing/  They seem to like it well enough.

Hi Justin,

If I understand correctly you want to track affiliate clicks on your website. You can track very easily by event tracking.

Here is a very good video tutorial where you will know exactly how you can implement & track event tracking & goals for affiliate clicks.

****Just want to let you know that everything is correct in this tutorial except one code that is outdated. You have to replace

_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'category', 'action', 'label']) to ga('send','event','category','action','label', value);

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Lesley

Thanks again! Is it just as simple as adding the plugin? Or is there more to it?

My website is custom built do you know of any other affiliate programs?

Edward,

No worries, you can integrate their tracking code into your website as well without using a plugin.
