And That’s Why You MUST Have LinkTrackr.com!
Reviewed by Zamri Nanyan

One email came to me lately.

Here’s the edited conversation for easy reading.

“Zamri, could you help me out? I’ve done a lot of promotions to one of the affiliate programs I joined. I’ve posted my affiliate link on Facebook, forums and other websites that I can possibly leave the URL. I’ve been doing this for two months and sadly, I’ve gotten only one sale. How can I improve my sales? Could you look at my website?”

My reply came with another question, “do you know how many people visited your website from all these different promotions?”

“No but can you look at my website?”

“Hello! Didn’t you get my question? “, I thought to myself, sighing!

To cut the story short, many people are still thinking that as long as they promote and market their website, that’s good enough. “Surely people will buy what you have to offer”, so they think. After all, that’s better than building a website and hoping that people will come and visit you by magic.

Unfortunately, website conversion and traffic statistics are two different things. If you are shooting in the dark and do not know how much traffic you’re getting from your promotions, your website conversion is out of the question. Why? What if you only get 70 visitors a week to your website? There’s no point in tweaking your website to get sales from very little to no traffic to your website.

Does that make sense?

Google Analytics is cool but for tracking traffic to your website from forums, Facebook, email marketing, articles, blogs is a bit tricky. You need to have another method to make sure all the traffic statistics are recorded. It is much more important to do it so if you are promoting affiliate program, simply because, most of the time, you don’t know at all where the clicks to your affiliate link are coming from.

So how do you do that?

Here’s what you can do – cloak your affiliate link that can track raw and unique clicks to your website.

For example, instead of promoting http://www.bluehost.com/track/millionaire (raw affiliate link) for Blue Host Webhosting service, you would create these links that redirect and track clicks to your Blue Host affiliate link:

• http://get.linktrackr.com/bluehost-fb (to be used in Facebook marketing)
• http://get.linktrackr.com/bluehost-fr (to be used in forum marketing)
• http://get.linktrackr.com/bluehost-art (to be used in article marketing)
• http://get.linktrackr.com/bluehost-em (to be used in email marketing)

Now you will know how many clicks are coming from each source and all of them are redirecting back to your Blue Host affiliate link. From each of these sources, you will know if it’s worth to focus in one or two (or all) marketing campaigns, and you know now that you’re not shooting in the dark.

Every click on the cloaked links above are recorded for your easy reference and study later!

Guys & gals! This is important.

You want to track the clicks to your website links to find out if your promotional activity is generating interest on your offer. If you are still promoting a website that does not get any click, you know that you should do something, like not promoting that website anymore (among many actions you should take), but if you don’t even know if you’re not getting any click and you’re still promoting that website, that’s the worst marketer that I’ve ever known.

Get your website link tracked.

Know your traffic statistics.

…and That’s Why You MUST Have LinkTrackr.com.

.

LinkTrackr.com

Tracking click statistics in your affiliate promotion is very important, and over the years, I’ve been using many services to do just that – tracking clicks to my affiliate links.

Up until now, I’m still using a few link tracking services because those links I’m promoting are still all over the internet, but lately I just found a winner among many link tracking services that I have used.

LinkTrackr.com

This is a service from Gobala Krishnan and you can have a look at his service at http://get.linktrackr.com/linktrackr-report

To help you understand more about LinkTrackr, just look at the diagram below:

As you can see from the above, you will send all your traffic from different sources to your LinkTrackr, and LinkTrackr will cloak your affiliate link of redirect your traffic to your desired website.

What else can Linktrackr do?

• Easily Cloaking and masking affiliate links using centralized web-based software
• Tracking hundreds of PPC campaigns, banner ads  and other advertising clicks
• Creating viral promotions and getting free traffic from popular social media sites
• Tracking sales conversions accurately and making smarter advertising choices
• Split testing your landing pages to enhance and dramatically improve your conversion rates
• Automating blog monetization with simple but powerful LinkTrackr WordPress plugin

In other words, it’s a complete link tracking service that I’ve ever seen, and more importantly, it’s easy to use too.

I don’t simply say that blindly just to promote LinkTrackr or any other affiliate programs. I’m telling you in a user point of view (since I have been a customer since the launch of LinkTrackr.com).

Here are the steps you need to take to create your cloaked link.

1. Give the name to your link (for easy reference)
2. Input your Destination URL such as your affiliate link or website
3. Give the name to your LinkTrackr Tracking Link
4. Assign Tracking Group to this link (optional)

And you are ready to go. Others are just additional optional features to add into your tracking campaign.

How cool is that?

Here’s another great feature that I love about LinkTrackr.

.

Viral Bar

Did you see that?

It’s a viral bar that will get others to promote you website.

Picture this! You send a cloaked affiliate link to your mailing list. Out of 100 people who see the website, 30 people use the viral bar and tell their friends on Twitter and Facebook.

Now, you will never know how many people will come over and check your website again because those 30 people probably have 3,000 or 4,000 friends from their Facebook or Twitter accounts and they are referring your link to all of their friends.

In short, you could end up getting more than the original 100 people you referred earlier who come and visit your website.

It doesn’t stop there. What happens next is the same people that were referred to your website will probably use the viral bar again to refer others and the process could go on and on over time. That’s how the viral bar works and it’s already built-in inside LinkTrackr – you just have to activate it. It’s a 2-in-1 feature (link tracking and viral marketing), if you’d ask me about it.

.

WordPress Link Tracking Plugin

Another feature that’s worth mentioning about LinkTrackr is its ability to automatically convert keywords in your blog posts to affiliate links. Just install a simple WordPress plugin, and you’re ready to go.

Plus, unlike most other plugins, you can use it on all your WordPress blogs without having to enter the same link twice.

Now, how about turning all those keywords on your WordPress blogs into affiliate links? It’s really awesome and you should try it.

I hope my brief explanation about turning your WordPress keywords into profitable links was easy to understand but if you did not get what I’m trying to tell you, click “PLAY” below and watch it yourself.

You’ll love this feature. I promise…

Now, there are many other features that I’m not going to mention here in details. Otherwise, it would be another long report that will take up a lot of your time. But these features are a very short summary of LinkTrackr service before I tell you one piece of good news:

With LinkTrackr, you can do…

• Cloaking & Masking Affiliate Links or Any Websites
• Tracking Sales Conversion
• Optimizing Your A/B Split Test
• Tracking TID Affiliate
• Cloaking WordPress Link
• Marketing Using Viral Social Media
• Analyzing Ad Tracking Clicks
• Tracking Using Your Own Custom Domain

The above is already a long list actually, considering that LinkTrackr is first supposed to be tracking affiliate links only, but Gobala goes the extra miles and give more than you asked for. The last time I talked to Gobala, he also planned to add more and more features and improve their services. While I don’t know what kind of features that Gobala is going to add in, I’ve been more than happy with all the improvements so far.

LinkTrackr is my main tracking tool now and I don’t plan to switch to any other services. It’s a great tool and you should have it too.

.

Pricing

LinkTrackr has a very competitive pricing. Comparing to the service that I used previous, I had to pay $19.95 every month just to use the link tracking feature, while LinkTrackr starts with (get this)… $0!

Yup, that’s the good news that I’d like to tell you above.

You can get a free account with LinkTrackr and test-drive the system yourself. All of what I’ve written in this short report will be verified by your own experience and you’ll discover a lot more than what I’ve written.

Once you see the power of LinkTrackr, you can choose to upgrade to Basic, Pro or Xtreme Package for the monthly price of $9, $17 or $27 consecutively.

Let me end the story of the person who contacted me earlier about how to improve his affiliate sales.

Too bad – after getting advice from me, that person did not get back to me anymore. I know he is one of my subscribers and I hope this report goes directly to him and he’ll take action from the knowledge I shared here.

This post was created for the LinkTrackr February 2011 Contest where you stand a real chance to win a brand new Apple iPad 64G with 3G + Wifi worth $839.

I’ve seen so many launches in my inbox and JV requests but will never be able to entertain all. Recently, a few friends of mine were also requesting me to join their launch but I could not. Not because I did not want to help them out but because I did not have enough time to review their product.

Ah yea… why was I so tight up that I did not have enough time?

Well, actually it’s the opposite.

I was on a rush to go for my family vacation.

At this time of year, almost every year, I would take at least a week off to bring my family to a holiday.

This time… we went to Redang Island – one of the islands in Malaysia which is really beautiful, with white sandy beaches and crispy clear water (don’t take my word for it, just see some photos I have below)

my son fighting with fish… Kung Fu style!

here’s my daughter trying to grab a few striped ones…

me… overlooking the South China Sea

breathtakingly beautiful… (did you spot the two Japanese painters in the pic?)

Laguna Beach Resort… the place where we stayed

a nearby resort

evening time…

and more pictures in my Facebook album at http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2018344&id=1517313761

Yeah… needless to say, I really enjoyed the time off…

And right after coming back from Redang, a friend of mine, Jaz Lai came to Penang to have his own internet marketing workshop.

I did help him find the hotel and seminar rooms before going to Redang. When I got back to Penang, Jaz and his team have already arrived.

Here are some pictures of me and the others…

See if you can find Jaz Lai, Khai Ng, Ladan Lashkari, Edmund Toh… and ME!

Hope this post will help you relax from all the hectic emails of mega product launches here and there…

take care,

Zamri Nanyan

Here is a group picture taken on that day.

If you are not in Malaysia, you might not recognize the faces in the photo but there are actually some of us making a killing on the internet – from making a five figure income monthly to a millionaire status (see if you can spot me in the picture).

A few years back, internet marketers in Malaysia were not recognized as much as we are today, but we keep on striving until we proved to the country (and the world) that our efforts are not merely a child’s play.

I wrote more about it in Malay language at http://rahsia.bisnesdigital.com/peribadi/berita-perjumpaan-wangcybercom

The lifestyle of internet income is amazing.You can earn money while you sleep because it’s running 24 hours a day, you get paid in advance because customers pay you first before accessing or getting your product, internet business allows you to leverage on systems, most of the tasks can be automated and a long list of goodies.

At the same time, it makes me very confused…

Why some people can become so rich on the internet while most of them, failed. I mean, they have bought great courses that show them step-by-step — so what’s the problem?

I’m sure the courses work unless they’re scams. Although, some bought into scams but assuming that they got themselves the real deal. The simplest way to differentiate a real

deal or not is to see whether the course creator/owner is an expert in what he teaches and have proven result to show you.

I now know why courses didn’t work and I didn’t figure out this fact by my own.

My student helped me to see it, finally.

It has nothing to do with motivation or self-help perk talk.

You see, I’ve already given him the precise steps to success. And yet after 6 months, he

made nothing. Not only I’m confused, I’m slightly unhappy because it’s my commitment to help my students to achieve their desired goal on the internet. At the same time, I know what I’ve given him WORK because my other students are able to make money online.

It boiled down to a simple reason…

Most people failed because they failed to follow instructions.

Isn’t that crazy? Not really and I’ll explain to you in a short while why this can happened.

But really, if you follow the instructions given in the real deal courses rigidly, I’m sure you’ll make money online– or at least earn back the amount of what you’ve paid for the courses! I’ve always make it a point that every single dollar I’ve invested into education, I’ll use that knowledge to make back the investment or earn more.

SO WHY PEOPLE DON’T FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS?

First, people cannot follow instructions because they have their own analytical skill. Trust me, it’s not their fault. It’s not your fault. When the instruction conflicts with their own logic thinking, it’ll go haywire.

Then there’s the Smart Alecs who like to combine their own knowledge or mix two courses into one instead of following the simple given instructions to success. Well, this is a creative method to get better result and I do recommend it. That’s how Anthony Robbins created NAC (Neuro-Associative Conditioning) from NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming). But don’t do any tweaking unless you know what you’re doing or least, already have result based on following the instructions given. Agreed?

Why else people don’t follow instruction?

Sometimes, it’s not that they don’t want to but they can’t due to lack of understanding towards the education. If this is the case, ALWAYS go back to the creator of the course to clarify what he means!

If you’re doing that, I want to warn you ahead- Make sure you’re precise with your questions. I mean, if you’re reading a course about how to get traffic and you ask him how to get traffic, slight chance you’ll even get a reply. But if you ask him what does he means by the sentence on page 45 using ‘viral marketing’, applied to ‘ethical bribe method’ and so on, you might get a good reply. Make sure it’s precise and make sense too.

But the BIGGEST problem why they can’t take instruction is probably because they’re taking too many instructions at one go! If I’m learning 10 courses at the same time and following all of their instructions, I think I won’t have time to eat, sleep or take a shower. Stay focus. One at a time.

Speaking of following instructions, many of my students are bringing home part-time or full-time income while LOVING what you do on the internet. This proves that any ordinary person or a newbie can start their own internet business.

My wife, my three kids and I were about to leave. So, we got to the pay station for the parking ticket in the mall and I placed a dollar bill in the machine.

My car was parked on the 3rd floor. We were on the ground floor and had to take the lift. Since the lift was close to the pay machine, my wife and kids were there first. My daughter pressed the button to go up while my wife was busy with my 4-month old (with a stroller).

The lift opened for a while when I was done with the payment and about to join my family.

I guess, Aiman, my 5-year old son was being Aiman and he got inside the lift before anyone else. The lift was empty and but suddenly closed – leaving him inside alone.

We were stunned!

And, I saw the number went up from 1 to 2 and I knew that Aiman was still in the lift – alone.

My daughter, Syafiqah, thought it was fun and giggled for awhile..

“Aiman was inside”, she said with a smile.

Syafiqah did not know but I knew this was no laughing matter.

Immediately, the recent stories of missing and kidnapped children flashed in front of my eyes and that was when I realized how scared I was.

I told my wife to stay and wait for the lift to come down and I ran to the stairs to go up the floor and catch the lift.

I got to the 1st floor and checked the lift. Then, the second… third… forth.

No one.

My worry got even worst.

I called my wife to check if Aiman came down using the same lift… but he did not. I called her again when I reached the next floor and got the same answer. I could sense the worries in my wife’s voice.

Who can imagine being a situation like this?

I was worried like hell and you can’t even imagine how scared I was.

The last floor – the 7th floor.

I got there putting my last hope to see Aiman.

But, I got disappointed and more worried.

He was not there too.

I figured out that I should do another round of checking by going down the stairs and checking the lift floor by floor again.

I did and I called my wife on the 5th floor.

It was a big relief.

My wife said that a good samaritan found Aiman and took him to security. My wife asked help from one of the security guards and they “walkie-talkied” to
each other before she learned that Aiman was found.

I told my wife that I would wait for her and kids on the 3rd floor and we were soon reunited.

Until now we did not know who that good person was. I thank him and God so much that it all turned out to be fine.

I know I love my family so much but I did not know how much is much until I experience something that could change our life to the worse. Being close to losing one of your family members will make you love them more and more, and with that I would like to send these few messages to you.

1. Love your family for who they are and don’t take everything for granted. A few seconds (like my story here) could turn to be something bad.

2. If you can afford, make sure you and your wife have one handphone each and carry them when in public places. Just imagine how bad I would be if I couldn’t keep in close contact with my wife.

3. Inform the security about your missing kids immediately even if your kid is out of sight for quite awhile. Every second counts when in emergency. Don’t wait for half an hour before you talk to someone.

4. Keep your kids close to you. Sometimes, you even have to hold their hands. You can see in a situation like mine, you can still lose them.

5. Help others in need because you might not know when you need one in the future. I belief “Law Of Reciprocal” still exists and I still owe a BIG “Thank You” to the mysterious person who help bring my kid to the security. Although I don’t know who he is, I pray that good things will happen in his life.

I thought the whole drama was only about 20-30 minutes but I could feel that the time flew so slow. That’s what happened when you really want something so bad and are not getting it.

Last but not least… I love my wife and kids so much and I wouldn’t trade for anything else in the world.

ps. Feel free to share this story with others!

You might be wondering and probably guess that I’m about to brag about how much I make on the Internet and such.

But, I’m not.

The snapshot that you are seeing is real but here is the whole point I’m telling you.

Although there are many more sales I’m not showing you here but I must say that this is not an easy work that I did in a short period of time.

In fact I did not make any single sale in the first 3 months I was online. My first commission was less than $10 USD. After the first three months, I was not consistently making money. Of course, I did get one or two sales but there were (meaning many) months that I did not get anything financially from my effort.

But there is one thing that I learned all the way.

Lots of people do not have passion and patience to build an online business. They want to make money as soon as they switch on their computer, without learning the right thing and having the right mindset to build a business. They quit halfway and call it a scam or anything related to that. So, I DID NOT become one of them. I did not try to make my online business work. I wanted to make it work and I worked on it.

If people quit halfway, I keep on learning and doing. That’s why I can show you the snapshot you’re seeing above.

If I were to quit 4 years ago, I could never be able to show you the list of sales I made here.

Now, imagine what the snapshot above would be in the next 5 years!

That’s the clue that I’m putting in your mind today.

1. Learn how to build a business online.
2. Pick something that you like to do.
3. Find out if that would be profitable.
4. DO IT and NEVER QUIT!

Of course #2 is debatable for many people, but that’s the rule I’m making for myself.

Here I am and I’m here to share with you a very personal story – the kind of experience that would bring me tears.

At exactly 1 week ago at 6:45 pm, my wife gave birth to a healthy BIG baby boy. I’ve been so happy since then.

So, here I am… back in front of my laptop.

Do pay a visit to http://imran.zamrinanyan.com and leave your wishes to my wife and baby boy (link to leave your comment is at the end of the amazing story I share with you).

I say it again – it’s VERY personal!

I would also encourage you to share my experience with others… so, make sure you use the tell-a-friend facility (at the top of the http://imran.zamrinanyan.com webpage) after reading my wife’s amazing and courageous experience.

I’d really appreciate it… since this is really for my wife to read (and she doesn’t know about it yet)

I’ll be back with more updates and internet marketing stuff soon…

sincerely,

Zamri Nanyan

ps. I appreciate and thankful for your wishes in advance!
