New domains to impove traffic tracking
As you know, the success of affiliate networks depends on accurate tracking of all actions. However, currently there are several restrictions that can negatively impact this process and consequently reduce the webmaster’s earnings.
For this reason, our technical specialists are constantly working to improve the quality of tracking affiliate traffic.
One of the blockers that interfere with proper tracking is the Adblock service. Adblock is a browser extension that blocks online ads.According to Hootsuite data, 42.7% of internet users worldwide use the Adblock service. Below is a map showing the usage of Adblock in different countries.

How does Adblock affect your earnings?
Users who have Adblock installed cannot access the advertiser’s website by clicking on the links, as they receive a blank page.
How can a webmaster solve this problem?
- Use Bounceless tracking from Admitad (which allows the redirection to happen without a domain redirect).
- Use alternative domains – for example, instead of ad.admitad.com, you can use personalized partner domains. We have already implemented this approach for several affiliate programs, like Aliexpress.
We have started a series of individual domain allocations for each affiliate program.
We kindly ask you to check and update your links in your placements if necessary. The new domains are already available in the program catalog, webmaster APIs, product feeds, and other tools that include links.
If you need any assistance, please feel free to contact our technical support at support@admitad.com, and they will be happy to help you.
