Site is costaricarentacellphone.com. Visitor reads various pages, then goes to Reservations page to send us information. We pay linking sites a commission based on the total billing of the cell phone rental which may be weeks or months later.

What we need is the link identifier (where the vistor came from) to be included in the email that comes to us as a result of the visitor entering information on the reservation form. This will permit us to pay the correct referring site when the rental is completed.

How can this be done?

Hello Steve,

I would say what you need is a cookie based affiliate program.

Or you could do the following...

Add2it Go-To Pro includes a feature to place a cookie that contains the link name on the visitors computer. If you would setup one special link tracker for every referrer, then you could read out that cookie on the page with the form and include the content in the email to you.
Sincerely,

Frank Bauer

Follow-up on your response Post 593. Thanks for the quick response, it sounds like this is what we need. Do we need to buy the complete Add2it Go-To Pro package or should we buy a specific sript(s)?

Hello Steve,

With Add2it Go-To Pro you could take care of the setting of the cookies. Then all you need would be the part that reads the cookie and adds it to your form.

If you need help with that, feel free to hire me. :-)
