Currently in beta-testing, the T3Affiliate Report lets affiliate managers track the incoming and outgoing traffic of their affiliates in extensive detail. T3Report CEO Brandon "Fight the Patent" told XBIZ that the idea is to help affiliate managers help their affiliates make more money.
"It’s a very powerful tool that every affiliate manager should have, especially when times are tough," he said.
It works like this: Affiliate managers log into the site and choose from a master list of their company's paysites. Once a manager has chosen a site, they'll get a list of all of the affiliates who are promoting that site.
From that list, managers can see where a certain affiliate has placed a link to a given paysite. That's the key to the whole enterprise, Shalton said.
"The Affiliate Report scans affiliate websites to find pages that your [company's paysite] is not on," he said.
The T3Affiliate Report can also track an affiliate's incoming links. With that information, an affiliate manager can suggest what pages their company's paysites should be promoted on.
For example, if an affiliate manager sees that a certain affiliate is getting a large amount of big-bust traffic but isn't promoting a high-converting big-bust site prominently enough, the manager can let the affiliate know.
"It's a win-win situation," Shalton said. "After all, affiliates don't always invest in tech stuff. A lot of them fly blind or promote based on gut feelings. This lets the affiliate manager provide the affiliate with really useful information."
The T3Affiliate Report can also tell an affiliate manager all of an affiliate's outgoing links. Naturally, that gives managers a clear look at their competition.
The T3Affiliate Report is set to debut with a price of $250 per month.
