7,098 PointsHow to track someone when the one goes out of my website throw one of my links
Hello, I have a website that has contracts with some online stores. My business is posting their banner in my website and when they go to those sites from my site and buy something, I will get benefit. My problem is that I need to know how much my customers spend on those stores and what they bought, and also they have to distinguish between their own customers and my customers. I heard that Alexa and google analytic may help me but i'm not sure. there are already some sites like https://www.dealaction.com and http://www.ebates.com/ that done it well but i don't know how. Thanks You

This tends to work using a referral link and the site they go to tracks it to see where they go, what they do, how many they spend etc.
