How does it work? Post Affiliate Pro recognizes which page the visitor came to your site from. If the visitor came from the affiliate’s site, the system recognizes that visitor as being referred by the affiliate.
DirectLink links offer many advantages, for you as the merchant if offers SE friendliness, and for your affiliates, the link cannot be damaged, and the fact it is an affiliate link is masked from the customer.
