Highlights
This session focused on the things we need to be looking at and measuring as site owners. What we measure, how we measure, assessing where we are at and making an action plan from this data is critical to our success as affiliate marketers.
Jeremy discussed the various tools we can use to collect this information by both paid and free means.
My Top Take-Away
Link cloaking is not just a way to keep people from stealing your commissions. It may help site visitors not have a trust issue with being redirected to an off-site URL. Also, it keeps you from supplying your merchant with keyword information they could use to compete against you.
