Best Affiliate Tracker for Your Workflow

Decide whether you need a campaign tracker, then compare tracking tools by your measurement workflow rather than untested ratings.

A campaign tracker serves a different job

If you buy advertising and need to attribute conversions, a campaign tracker may belong in your workflow. If you only place ads on a website to earn publisher revenue, start with your network reporting. A tracker is not an ad network and does not automatically increase publisher earnings.

Make the selection criteria explicit

List the traffic sources, conversion events, attribution windows and integrations you need. Check your implementation constraints before comparing subscription prices. A tool that supports a feature still needs a reliable setup, consistent campaign identifiers and a reconciliation process.

Validate before committing

Run a small, documented campaign and reconcile events against the source and destination. Check missing conversions, duplicate events, time zones and reporting latency. These are evaluation steps, not performance results from a test conducted by AdNetworkRank.
