When Clickbank added the feature of tracking ids to affiliate links, a lot of affiliates breathed a sigh of relief. I know I did. Up to that point, I had used used seperate affiliate accounts to track sales. One for advertising and one for natural search results. It was the only way to track the return on investment I was getting for the money I was throwing at pay per click advertising. Add this opened up the possibility of tracking hits down to the keyword to squeeze even more out the money I was spending.

Clickbank has made a lot of changes to their site lately. The claims that some of their affiliates and vendors have made about sales are true for most part. Clickbank has made millionaires. But the Clickbank site itself didn’t match the claims. The site was behind the times in looks and technology. But this is no longer true.

It is now possible for affiliates to add tracking codes to their hoplinks. Tracking Clickbank sales used to be a guessing game. If you spent money on PPC and used organic SEO to send visitors to the same page, it was very hard to calculate ROI on your advertising.
