Tracking my affiliate link?

[Success Story]

Hello, I am sorta new to internet marketing.. I'm doing great, made some steady money and lovin the art of setting up campaigns and figuring out what works and what doesn't.

I am getting ready to start promoting a product that i personally use and enjoy a ton. I am promoting it on face book and yahoo answers to start.. I will get a blog or review site up shortly, but my question is marketing on facebook all i can do is provide product info and the link straight to the actual site.

I created a separate domain name and had it forwarded to my affilaite link in hope of it becoming viral and easy to remember for people to pass on the domain to others.

Is there a way to track link itself? to see how many people click from facebook or yahoo answers? as of now i have no clue who clicks on my link to even check it out..

HELP!

thanks

If its a good affiliate network they will have the option for you to place a tracking link of your own on the page of the advertiser.

Otherwise, create a blank page for your viral url and place your pixel/analytics code on it and then use an auto redirect method. I have attached a resource guide.
