First name your source and give it a code # -
let's say you advertise on Google you name it #1;
each other source just give it an added # like 2;

if you have a personal page or blog give that #3;
here it gets a little more complicated -
you have several pages with an ad on it there you add an additional # to it, like #31.
But you also would like to know which Landing Page has more success than the others
so you adjust your efforts.

The 3 number

Detailed Tracking - always a little tricky;

If you have several sources give each one a dedicated number.
For instance 001 for the first source, which would show you where it comes from.
Source #2 repeat the same with 002 this time etc. at least this will show you what SITE they were referred from.

If you want to get more detailed from what specific "pages" your visitors come from,
then combine 001 and add another # after the 001 so it appears like

Hi Augustine -

I am a big fan of FIFA EU games and can't wait until these games are over and to check how "GOOD" or bad I really know my teams. Talking to friends in pubs about it helps quite a bit. Print out a couple of sheets of the games and casually ask your friends to pick their WINNERS.

During games I have my laptop with me plus the sheets and I explain it to several before or during half time how this works. Have gained a few PRM's so far this way.

Hi -

living in a Tourist town with music coming from every corner one would think it is relatively easy. So what my personal strategy is I have this MUSIC Banner on top of pages which I build for Bars & Restaurants - and there is a page I connect them to with more detailed information about how to submit an entry.

Or you can have a business card made just for Musicians and put these in their tip jar or hand them out personally. Prestige domain names or a personal URL to

This same question I have been pondering myself and no matter how I look at it the answer is always the same: "PRM's and PSA's go hand in hand"!

PRM's I started to recruit on a more local base and after building a site and a blog and learned of the importance of being a good sponsor I focused on PSA's - it fluctuates from time to time but I think it is easier to recruit PSA's than PRM's and one can not always be sure if the PSA's are actually becoming active.

Hello,

I find building an e-mail template just for this purpose would be the easiest way to go about it.

Add a banner to the template that resembles the $12.- Gift Card
- include instructions on how to redeem the cards and give the receiver a little incentive why they should actually use it. Mention the benefits of being a TripleClick Member and how much you enjoy it.

Hopefully that helped a bit - it's a great idea you have with a personalized look to it.

Hi -

You said "Best Ways" as in plural -
a weekly team mail I find not only the easiest way
but also the most effective. That's to both PSAs & CSAs.

Then of course comes the part where you look through the
Filters at Genealogy - that takes some practice - and sort
out who is in need of help or some motivational and/or
inspirational words.

I still find the personal and occasional quick note
asking how they are doing a

This is one question I often asked myself -
One has to blind not to grab the easiest form
of getting points and TCredits with just a couple of clicks.

If you read the forum there are quite a few threads
about the delivery of the Starter-Kit. I do wonder
if that is one reason many ignore the best and simplest
way to get going with SFI!

Keep reminding your team of the benefits - tell them the

Hi there -

This is in fact a sore subject and unfortunately it does happen too frequently.
It's a first impression that be quite misleading. But then again, I personally
don't get many requests or notification from my new PSA's.

As a new affiliate it's extremely important to take the initiative by themselves.
The guidelines are clearly outlined by SFI and once the sponsor sees activity, the sponsor will be there.

Once the new affiliate gets a bit

Actually any method one can think of is a good method.
It's the best way to create some interest to become a member
at TripleClicks.

So the best way is at first to explain what the Gift Card is
and what it can be used for. People are always asking how they benefit
and save on anything.

Once you stirred their interest, offer the cards on a special webpage,
have a small paragraph about it in a newsletter,
rave about the Auction in your blog and
