How to track affiliates in Zoho Backstage

Affiliate Links

Promote your event through an affiliate network to broaden your brand's reputation and rope in a wider audience. With unique links for your affiliates, you can efficiently track and monitor their performance and gauge what works best for your event. 
 

Create affiliate link

Before you can create individual links for all your affiliates and start collecting data on the amount of traffic and sales generated from a particular source, you need to add the affiliate in your Event Console.

  1. Go to Manage > Promote > Affiliate tab, from the Dock.  
  2. Click the Add Affiliate button.
  3. Enter the Affiliate Name in the text box to create a unique URL for the affiliate link.
  4. Click Add.

Get affiliate link

Now that the affiliate has been added, you can identify and track the actions of affiliates using unique links for each one. The affiliate link usually contains the affiliate name at the end of the microsite link. You can paste this link in affiliate websites to redirect visitors to your event microsite.

View affiliate performance

Know how well your affiliates are performing by monitoring data like the orders placed and the traffic received. These KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) will help you refine your strategy. Also, when an attendee registers for your event through an affiliate link, the details of it will be mentioned in the Attendee tab too.
