A linkcode is a referral URL tracked by Offerit.
Redirecting to the Correct Page
When Offerit turns a linkcode into a tour URL, it automatically appends a slash (/) to the end of barewords. You can prevent this by appending a question mark to the end of the URL. For example:
| Tour URL | Where Linkcodes Go |
|---|---|
| http://example.com/tour | http://example.com/tour/?ocode=offeritcode |
| http://example.com/tour? | http://example.com/tour?ocode=offeritcode |
Qualified Link Codes
If there's a extra "t" in your linkcode, you probably grabbed the wrong link code from the top of the Sites edit page.
http://example.com/ttrack/<?=$_REQUEST['offerit']?$_REQUEST['offerit']:'MDowOjE'?>/page.html
The ttrack is used for qualified clicks; track is used for normal hits.
Composition of the Offerit Code
Unencoded linkcodes have the following format:
Affiliate.Program.Offer.LandingPage.Campaign.CreativeID.Subid1.Subid2.Subid3
(Subid 1 - 3 are not currently used).
For Un-Encoded Links, Affiliate is the username of the affiliate, and the rest of the fields are IDs.
For Shortname Links, Affiliate is the username of the affiliate, program, site, and tour are shortnames, and the rest of the fields are IDs.
