tracking your link building campaigns

    I've asked some affiliates/friends and most of them track all of their link building campaigns using excel. Any searches I try I find over the top websites that offer solutions but at unreasonable prices for something so basic.

    Is there any good software available for free? If I can't find anything decent I'll have a developer make me a program.

    I don't think it's unreasonable to sell a product for a price to help cover your time in development.

    I use software from Caphyon that I like quite a bit. But yes, it does cost money.

    I'm not against paying for products or services but for over $20/month it would have to be amazing and better than just organizing a bunch of links for when excel can do that almost the same. Otherwise half a day to develope would be worth the expense but I'm guessing there is either a cheaper solution or something free compared to what I've found in search results.

    Regardless if it costs $ or not I still would appreciate more recommendations so thanks!

    it's a lot of time consuming. Also I found that many links that I posted dofollow were first dofollow and later on nofollow......
    It's hard to keep tracking, especially with 3 ways.
    I use spreadsheet lotus.
