This promotion of the product is virtually for the retailer. They do this either by their own website for the product to advertise, or by search advertising to market the product via (Affiliate with SEM). This business generally benefits both sides. The dealer can sell a product through a variety of distribution channels to bring the product to prospective buyers. So many things he need to do, that he cannot do this alone. The affiliate gets a commission for each sale of the dealer’s product.<br />But how are successful sales tracked?<br />It just works. The affiliate will receive after he signed up for the affiliate program a special link from the dealer. This link contains the unique identification number of the affiliate. This link binds the affiliate's Web site. This can happen, for example, by having a link to the product image or text link with a copy for the product. Once an interested visitor clicks a link that he gets on the side of the partner merchant, he can buy the product.

This means that a previously stored cookie is overwritten. <br />
