List Building - How to Track Your Subscribers Behavior - Part 1

by Sean Mize - Date: 2006-12-12 - Word Count: 268 Share This!

I do my tracking at the sales level. Because everyone that comes to my sales pages generally comes from my existing list, I can do this without any adtracking software. I simply create a different autoresponder form for each and every source, and a keep track of which autoresponder form comes from what traffic source.

Then I can take the individuals' email and name from the sales information, and track exactly where the individual has come from.

Now, many of you may think that that is quite primitive, and indeed it is.

There are several reasons I do it that way:

1) I do not like to spend any more money than I have to. I have about $60 per month in fixed expenses, and I spend a few hundred a month on software and information products and products to resell. To me, that is enough. I do not want to spend another $20 per month on an adtracker, or spend the time installing my own.

2) I try to keep everything simple, because part of my business plan is to teach others (like you) how I do it. If I complicate things with multiple programs, it will not be easy enough for everyone.

3) I have heard horror stories of how people have used adtrackers or 3rd party links, and for some reason the service goes out of business and now all my links are going nowhere.

By having all my links go somewhere on my site, at least if I move a page accidentally, they can still get to my main page and ask me how to buy whatever it is they want.
