This would be fairly simple... create a list with one extra field in it, the "Affiliate ID" field.  Save this ID when someone fills out the form according to which affiliates page they are on.

In the follow up emails, simply us the field at the end of the URL or wherever you need to track it.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your response... It seems very simple to do but I have to mention that I dont know php and the only think I can do is how to get the generated "Signup code".

The kind of url I will use for my affiliates page is next:

http://www.mydomain.ws/affiliate1/
http://www.mydomain.ws/affiliate2/

What I need is the "affiliate1, affiliate2, etc."

Can you help me about this?

Thanks in advance,

I'm thinking you would have to hard code this into each affiliates site, which would be easy if you only had a few, but if you have a lot or plan on getting a lot, then Listmail really isn't where you want to run your affiliate program from.

I'd suggest getting an affiliate script of some sort that makes doing things like this easy.  I can't suggest any off hand, but I'm sure doing a search would get a lot of results.

On the other hand, doing it quickly for just a few affiliates would be easy.  Just Create a list, make affiliate_ID a field, then on the form on each affiliates site just hard code that affiliates ID into the form like this:

Code: [Select]

<form method=post action=http://YOURDOMAIN.com/listmail/signup.php>
<input type=hidden name=list value=1>
<input type=hidden name=affiliate_ID value=YOUR AFFILIATES ID>
First Name: <input type=text name=fname size=10><br>
Email: <input type=text name=email><br>
<input type=submit name=sup value="Subscribe Me!">
</form>

Then on all the follow ups just point the URL's like this:

Code: [Select]

http://www.yourdomain.com/!affiliate_ID/

Should work, test yourself before implementing this.
