Affiliate Program Graphics Library FAQs

How are affiliate referrals tracked?

The referrals for the HomeopathyWorld Affiliate program are
tracked based upon the customers' shopping baskets and a
cookie that is created on their computer each time they
access the HomeopathyWorld storefront.

When a customer links to the HomeopathyWorld.com shop,
a basket "session" is logged in a database and marked with
your affiliate code if it was referred from your link on your of
web sites.

The cookie on the shoppers computer is matched with that
basket until one of two things happen:
1. The basket is "timed out" . Our TIME OUT settings are set
for 1440 minutes.
2. The shopper completes the order, which in turn will convert
the "Basket" into an "Order".

Once the order is complete, the shopper is assigned a new
basket session only if he connects to another part of the store.

If the customer links DIRECTLY to the same storefront, then
the basket will not be tracked as an affiliate referral.
If the shopper links back through the partner site, it will once
again, track it as a referred customer.

Whats the difference between the "Link URL"
and the "Link text"?

The “Link URL” can be used in the HTML code to link a
graphic or any group of words to our site.
