e107 All-in-One Affiliate Plugin
Introducing the Affiliate Plugin for e107
The e107 All-in-One Affiliate Plugin has been designed for webmasters who run websites that use affiliate schemes to make money online. Core features include:
- Integrated Ad Units
- Short Link generator
- Cloaked affiliate links
- Affiliate link tracking
Read on for more details about each of these.
Integrated Ad Units
This allows you to include adsense in various e107 locations. For example after the first post in a thread, or at the base of news items. If you do not use adsense then that is not a problem, any kind of ad such as widget bucks, chikita, Amazon Widgets etc or even the e107 Banner shortcode could be used.
Show an adsense advert after the first post in a forum thread:
Show adsense before the quick reply form at the end of the thread:
Link Shortening
We are all probably familiar with sites such as tinyurl and bit.ly that provide link shortning services. Well now you can build this into your e107 site! This is great for passing out short links to your site pages that can be tracked in the e107 admin pages whilst ensuring your link contains your domain name - thus protecting and growing your brand. To see this in action check here.
For example:
or
www.jezza101.co.uk/links/amazonuk
The URL structure is configurable so that if you prefer not to use /links/ you can use something else, perhaps /go/ or similar.
Link Cloaking
Link cloaking hides your affiliate links, this can be done to tidy up lengthy tracking URLs or to avoid the appearenece of stuffing affiliate links into your site at every opportunity. It allows you to keep a consitent and short format which is useful when sharing links out. This is therefore essentially a free version of the affiliate ninja plugin for wordpress - except on e107! Combined with the linkwords plugin you can reproduce almost the same functionality.
For Example Amazon UK or Amazon USA
Link Tracking
This allows you to track every click that is made on one of your affiliate links. This is ideal for tracking the use of links that you have passed out to partner sites or attempted to proliferate via a viral marketing campaign. This type of tracking is a standard feature of many commercial websites and can provide a fantastic aid to optimising your pages and identifying which parts of your site are performing well and which need some more attention!
Clicks from any short links generated are tracked using this functionality.
