How do I track affiliate sales using Tracking Pixels?
Note: Tracking conversions with Tracking Links along with Tracking Pixels is an outdated form of tracking, and due to industry-wide changes and the phasing out of “third party cookies” it’s becoming less and less accurate every day.
You REALLY should be using ClickMagick Campaigns for your conversion tracking instead. It’s way more accurate, and more powerful, than Tracking Links.
Generally you’ll want to track your affiliate sales using Postback URLs, because it’s the most accurate. However, if the affiliate program you’re promoting only supports Tracking Pixels it’s better than nothing.
Just read the article below to learn all about how to use Tracking Pixels to track your sales. The only difference here is that instead of adding the Tracking Pixel to your own page, you’ll need to add the Tracking Pixel to your affiliate back office, either for the offer you’re promoting or as an account-wide pixel in your settings or profile.
