Affiliates can add secondary websites or social media profiles to their AvantLink account. This allows multiple web properties to be managed under one account while still tracking clicks and sales separately by website.
Why Add Secondary Websites?
Adding secondary websites makes it possible to:
- Manage multiple websites or social profiles under one AvantLink account
- Enables Merchants the ability to search and recruit an Affiliate by all web properties they operate
- Track performance separately for each website in reporting
This is useful if you promote merchants across more than one website, blog, or social media profile and want to see results for each one individually.
How to Add a Secondary Website
To add a secondary website to your account:
- Go to Menu > Account Settings > Secondary Websites
- Select Add a Website
- Complete all required fields marked with an asterisk
Once submitted, AvantLink’s Compliance team will be notified that a new website has been added.
Website Review and Approval Process
After adding a website, you will receive an email with instructions for verifying ownership of that site. Once the ownership authentication steps are completed, AvantLink will review the website to confirm it meets our acceptance criteria.
Using a Secondary Website with Tracking Links
After your additional website has been approved, you can associate it with tracking links you create in AvantLink.
When generating a new link, you can choose which approved website or secondary website should be associated with that link. This lets AvantLink track clicks and sales separately based on the website tied to the link.
For example, if you operate two different websites under one affiliate account, you can create links for each site and assign the appropriate website during link creation. Reporting will then show performance by website.
Reporting by Website
Once links are associated with your approved secondary websites, you can view performance separately in reporting.
You can use either of these reports:
- In Classic Reports: Performance Summary by Affiliate Website
- In Performance Reports: Performance by Affiliate Website
These reports allow you to review clicks, sales, and other performance metrics for each website associated with your account.
