Q: Thanks Phil, I'm about to get started on it. I just have one concern. If a user comes through the referral link and then decides to skip around (to the demo etc.) I notice the referral disappears from the URL. Will we lose the referral if the user explores your site before downloading or purchasing? I guess that's my only concern going forward. Thanks for your insight on this.
A: You don't lose the referral. There is a cookie that is placed on the user's computer so no matter when they download it, it will always download the special EXE created for you (even if it's days later). You can test it out if you'd like. No matter what page you go to, if you come back to the homepage or download page, the link to download will be: "http://www.tubetoolbox.com/Downloads/XXXXX/TubeToolboxSetup.exe" where "XXXXX" is your affiliate code. When you install tube toolbox from that link, you will find a single file called "ref.dat" that will contain your Affiliate Code - that code is reported back up to us the first time that they run the program and you are then associated with that person forever.
