    I have some wordpress blogs with affiliate links on but I want to track how many people click each link so that I can work out which products are converting well.

    Is there some sort of wordpress plugin to do this?

    Thanks for that I'll have a try :)

    I found a few plugins that are exactly what I want but they are all $90+ so I might have a sit down and make my own to release for free :D

    Have you tried using Google Analytics?

    I have wanted something like this also, I found this plugin useful as Google analytics doesn't seem to track my clicks properly.

    I use google analytics to track my sites traffic but it doesn't seem to track the outbound links properly.

    Something like Affiliate Ninja or WP Affiliate Pro would be great if they didn't cost ~$100.

    I'm only playing with wordpress and affiliate links at the minute so I dont want to start spending that much on plugins just yet.
