In this video I show you how to use the Data1 field to add tracking data to your affiliate links so you can make sure they are working properly.

The main function of the data1 field is to allow you to add more information so you can more accurately track where your conversions are coming from.

A similar resource that talks about the same concept in regards to adding the tracking when using banner ads can be found here:

****Important*****

Please make sure you access your own affiliate link from your control panel and do NOT copy what is on the screen.

Here are the correct formats that will work. Replace OOO with your unique affiliate id:

http://www.wealthyaffiliate.com/?a_aid=OOO&data1=
