Well let me first describe what I'm doing. I'm setting up a new website for a large group of online gamers. Most of these gamers have their own sites but use my current site quite frequently. Now with the new website, I want o create some form of an affiliate program where by click throughs can be counted etc. I don't want an affilite program that is pay per click, etc.
I've searched Hotscripts.com, aspin.com and asp101.com but haven't come up with anything succesful.
Here is the current site: ASF
And here is a sample of what I'm trying to do: example
Has anybody got any ideas where I can get something similar?
Thanks for your time.

I think the closest you're going to get is a modified Links Manager MOD that sorts the links based on (daily?) click-thru's.
Doable, but a bit of work involved. |

Thanks for that Laser, had a look through the available Snitz Mods to see if anything was close. Then I tried looking for something independent of Snitz that perhaps could be turned into a Mod for Snitz forums, and then create my first ever Mod, give my little piece of humble pie back to Snitz forums.
Anyway, enough talking rubbish, I searched the net and couldn't find anything, searching for 'affiliate' only came up with making money affiliates.
So thanks for your reply Laser, its a plan, for the moment, but if anybody has tried using something along these lines then I'd love to know.  |

Do you want to count incoming hits?
If your affiliates use a specific URL to link to your site, you could always use something in the querystring and write the info in a table (affiliateID, date, hits, pageviews). Then use a session to get the incoming users.
If there's no affiliate specified, put the hits and views in the row for "other affiliate", otherwise count the first hit as "hit" (that's when the session gets set) and every other as "pageview".
With people using Norton and other "privacy enhancing software" that blocks referrer information, this seems the safest solution. But you could always also check the referrer URL for the domains of your affiliates. |

One month later and I came across what I was looking for, so I thought I would leave the link here, just in case anybody else was looking for something similar.

Here's something that is written in ASP. I didn't really try it out, but I found it while looking for other stuff online, so I thought I'd throw it out there as well.
