Advanced: custom info with referrals
Multi-channel tracking
To improve tracking of your campaigns and referrals, you can pass any custom variable with your referrals to Udimi via the "?sid=" parameter.
For example, if your affiliate link is https://udimi.com/a/xxxxxx, you can use https://udimi.com/a/xxxxxx?sid=AnyCustomWord. This variable will be stored in your referral account and will be visible on the Referrals screen.
How can I use it?
If you are driving traffic to your affiliate link from multiple sources, it is very handy to tag all visitors from each source to keep track of which one is giving you the best results.
For example: If you are promoting Udimi in your email list, you can add ?sid=mylist. For messengers you can add ?sid=messenger and so on. You can pass any word as a variable.
How to see it
After your referral registers, a special identifier will be recorded in their account. You can see this ID right in the My Referrals section of the Affiliates area.
Third column shows referring site of your referral and SID field, it there's any. On screenshot above you can see that a member came from bing.com and SID was "msft"
If you export your referral list to a CSV file, all fields will be there too.
