Do you currently know how many people click on links you use in emails, on your website or in ads you place elsewhere on the Internet?

If you’re sending emails to your list, you really do need to know how many people click on links in the email – in order to determine whether the ad was of interest to your subscribers – and whether your email copy was up to the job.

For ads placed on your web site, you need to see how many visitors are clicking on the ads, to determine whether they could be improved.

For ads placed elsewhere (on other sites or in other people’s ezines), you need to know not only how good your ad is – but also how good that advertising source was, so you can decide whether to use it again.

To do all this, you need a solution called "ad tracking".

Ad tracking can be used to assess the effectiveness of ads you pay for, free ads, links in your own emails or links on your own website.

By analyzing the results from an ad tracking system, you can substantially improve your income, by improving emails you send to your list, improving ads on your website – and by concentrating your marketing budget on your most effective advertising solutions.

Despite these advantages though, there are many problems with most of the ad tracking solutions currently available on the Internet.

They are generally expensive (costing up to $20 per month), difficult to use (requiring considerable time and effort to set up each ad tracker) and usually involve using long unattractive links that can actually reduce your response rates.

They are also often rather limited, without essential features like sales tracking and automatic tracking of pay-per-click ads.

Now I’d like to introduce you to a new ad tracking system that solves all these problems, providing you with a quick and easy, low cost, but very powerful solution.

Lynx Tracker

Low Cost With No Monthly Fees

Lynx Tracker is a script installed on your own web site.

Don’t worry if you’re nervous about the idea of installing scripts.

The script is very easy to install and comes with comprehensive step-by-step instructions.

You just need to fill in a form and the script will be set up for you automatically.

Once Lynx Tracker is set up on your web site, there are no ongoing fees to pay.

With many other ad tracking solutions costing up to $20 per month, Lynx Tracker can save you hundreds of dollars every year!

Attractive Links Proven To Increase Sales

One of the common problems with ad trackers is that they use links which can deter potential customers from clicking on them.

The link below is typical of the sort of link used by many ad tracking systems.

http://www.mytracker.com/tracker?P_Y1d0DqY1DRjYPLQLJvhA

The first part of this link contains the web address of the ad tracking service, an address with which your visitors and newsletter subscribers may be unfamiliar.

The second part is just plain obscure, just like those weird links often seen in spam emails.

Independent tests have shown that many web site visitors and newsletter subscribers are reluctant to click on links like this.

Now take a look at a typical link from Lynx Tracker (imagine your own web site address in place of mysite.com).

http://www.mysite.com/recommends/ebooks.htm

The link has no obscure information in it and looks just like a normal link to your website.

Tests have proven that links like this attract a much higher click-through rate because they look more trustworthy to your visitors and newsletter subscribers.

Save Time With Easy To Remember Links

Most ad tracker systems include a code automatically generated by the system in each tracking link.

This is usually either an obscure code or a sequential number. An example of each is shown below:

http://www.mytracker.com/tracker?P_Y1d0DqY1DRjYPLQLJvhA

http://www.mytracker.com/tracker?r=123

In both cases, you’ll really struggle to remember which tracker is which.

Lynx Tracker allows you to pick your own simple short name for each tracker.

For example, in the tracking link below, I have chosen the name "amazon" so I can tell that this is my tracking link for the Amazon web site:

http://www.mysite.com/recommends/amazon.htm

Choosing your own name makes the link look more user friendly than a system generated code.

It also helps you remember the names of your tracking links, saving you valuable time by avoiding the need to look up codes each time you use a tracking link.

Best of all Lynx Tracker is quick and easy to use.

Easy Article Website Building Continues


Continuing with the excellent software Article Site Power Kit, I today put together another twelve information sites in under half an hour.

All I needed to do really was source the articles and the header graphics (which I did through the Marketing Gold Club ) and then use the ready provided templates and the Article Site Power Kit did the rest. The most time consuming part was uploading the sites to the web server!

I’ve been driving traffic into my Hot Guides sites using the power of multiple blogs – one for each subject – and have managed to add 5 new postings in each blog per day so that there is plenty of fress content for the search engines to get their teeth into. Each of these blogs have links back out to the main article sites I’ve created with Article Site Power Kit.

I’m managing these blogs (and auto-posting) using J.P. Schoeffel’s Blog Matrix Pro and I’m using Google Analytics to watch the activity. I’m also seeing an upturn in my Adsense activity – which is the whole point!

I know I have a few customers who have bought Article Site Power Kit,  and it would be nice to hear from anyone else who is using the software and what their experinces have been so far. Just leave your comments below

Here are my latest mini-sites:

Apple iPhone

Autism

Bullying

Glycemia

Hot Tubs

Mexican Food

Mexico Vacations

Personal Digital Assistants

Property Taxes

Renting

Security Cameras

Web Video

All embedded with Adsense, Clickbank, Amazon affiliate links as well as the video wall. You can watch how these sites are built by watching this video, you will see how easy this sample site was constructed.
