Hi, The title says it all. I want to know what is the best software to use for this and how much it is. I have looked at StatsRemote which costs $299 and supports just over 300 affiliate programs. Well that is useless. The reasons for this is because it supports about 1% of the programs I am with and I join them regulary and I don't want to have to keep sending the software makers and email ever week asking them to included another 5 - 10 programs and then they will get them done on their next software release which will be ages. The software, statsremote is at: http://www.download.com/StatsRemote/3000-2650_4-10263739.html?tag=lst-0-7 Just incase anybody wanted to know what sort of thing I am looking for. I would like it so that it will automatically login to your stats area and pull the stats, I don't even worry if it just pulls the total earnings from each affiliate program as longs as I know how much I have earn't from them. I would also like to be able to add my own affiliate programs so that I don't have to wait for the software owners to do it. Is there anything like this on the Web? Thanks!
You could build one for yourself pretty easily if you have PHP knowledge. I don't know of any software that does it though.
Sorry, I don't know of one either. Perhaps you could get a coder to make it for you and then sell it to the masses. Sounds like a good idea. Right now, all I use is CBNotify but that only works for Clickbank.
You have 30,000 Affiliate programs???? I thought I was extreme with the plan to get a couple of hundred affiliate programs....
Oh... ok, i get it now that I am looking at the website. They have just over 300 specific affiliate accounts which they support, and you use different ones! OK....
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=affiliate+program+stats+tracker Looks like there is quite a selection of affiliate tracking programs out there.
That is not what I want. I did searches in Google. What you have given me is a search on affiliate tracking softwares, affiliate softwares, affiliate management softwares, etc. All of these are not for the affiliate to check hundreds of their affiliate accounts automatically to see their stats quickly. These are infact for people wanting to start an affiliate program on their website and to track their affiliates earnings, clicks, impressions, sales, etc.
I have quite a good knowledge of php. I know it can be done, but it is not that easy when I also have thousands of other things to do. Also, most affiliate programs use different tracking softwares plus their own custom softwares, so I would have to manually and slowly add one by one. I was wishing that there would be a software that would easily do this. I guess I will now have to go with the one I mentioned above as they seem to have about 4% - 7% of my main earning programs afterall. I noticed that after looking at the list of affiliate programs in more detail.
This is a great idea. However, you'd have to have each affiliate program agree to an xml interface or something... Right?
Someone posted over on my forum about a free program that does what you want. Lots of info about it in this 2 page thread: A free tool to gather your income statistics in one place Hope this helps and best of luck!
