    I have 2 different sites where I promote the same producs. I`ve created different tracking codes for both of them but I can not see any tracking code next to the sales. How would I know where each one came from?

    Thanks in advance

    Are you sure you've set up the tracking correctly?

    If you are talking about Clickbank tracking, then here's the format:

    ht tp://affiliate.publisher.hop.clickbank.net?tid=xxxxxxx

    (I've separated http so you can see the full link)

    The tracking ID can't be longer than 8 characters, and may contain only numbers and letters.

    click on reports, then analytics

    you now have an option to get a report by tracking codes

    is this what you are looking for?

    I'm not sure if my question have anything to do with this subject, but I think it has.

    I'm promoting links from clickbank publishers. So I'm an affiliate promoting others products. I posted the links on my site, and these have the format ht tp://my_affiliate_name.publisher_name.hop.clickbank.net/ and there's no ?tid=xxxxxxx
    Is this counting anyway? I've checked the reports and no one has bought anything yet. But there is a field counting 57 on the column #Hops . Is this the hit count that all the links I'm promoting had? How can I know how many times people had clicked each link?

    This is somewhat confusing...

    the tid is there only if you add a tracking code.

    to see which link is clicked how many times, go to the same analytic page as listed above and click the drop down and you'll see options there for reporting by link instead of tracking

    Thank you!
    I hadn't figured it out yet because there seems to be some issue with the date range. I had to try smaller ranges to obtain results. If it wasn't you, I wouldn't persist on that. :)
