Cligs – solving Affiliate targetting
November 17th, 2008Li pointed me towards a great new service from Pierre which helps solve what should be (But never is) a simple problem.
When you want to drop in an affiliate link somewhere out on the web often you will find that many of the people who are exposed to that link are from a location that the merchant doesnt want traffic from.
You know the kind of thing, you are promoting a UK offer yet if you drop the link in facebook you find a large percentage of the people who click it are US based and so the network tells them they dont qualify for that offer and sends them somewhere pointless instead.
Cligs helps solve that problem by allowing you to still have an innocent shortened URL whilst allowing you to send the traffic to different places depending on where they are located.
So UK people get the UK offer and US people get something equally tasty.
Simple ideas are often the most useful
