The affiliate program just brings them to the site and creates a cookie to remember who they are while they are there to give the affiliate credit for any purchases. They would need to follow the normal affiliate link to the site, then paste the direct link into the URL location to go directly to that specific magazine. If you just follow the direct link to the magazine, then it doesn't make the affiliate link.

Any suggestions on how I can make this work. The Affiliate Has a School site for teachers,parents,Home Schoolers
The Affiliate links is
The Magazine they are Interested in is
Anyone have any suggestions :)
 
"The affiliate program just brings them to the site..."

What affiliate program? who are "them"? It's difficult to understand what you're asking when you jump in the middle like that - let me see if I have it right. You are responsible for a site that affiliates to magazine-land.com . You want to link to a particular page in their site, but get your affiliate bonus. The link you have just points to the home page.

Really it's a question for magazine-land. If they haven't written a way to affiliate-link to particular pages, then you can't do it. It would be pretty stupid not to have a way of doing this, since that's how to make an affiliate programme really work: have people with a special interest direct traffic to relevant parts of your site. I suggest you review whatever information they provide (I can't see it without signing up to affiliate) and/or contact them.

Or have I got completely the wrong end of the stick - are you working for magazine-land and want to know how to implement an affiliate scheme?

Hi Chris,

I'm the owner of the website that has a built in affiliate program, this just brings them to the site and creates a cookie to remember who they are while they are there to give the affiliate credit for any purchases. I have a customer that would like his link to go directly to a certain Magazine that his audiance would be Interested in. How would I creat a Link and still keep the cookies There? would I need to follow the normal affiliate link to the site, then Some How paste the direct link into the URL location to go directly to that specific magazine. If you just follow the direct link to the magazine, then it doesn't make the affiliate link.

Yes I would like to know how to implement an affiliate scheme to do this. If you need more Information I will provide it. I'm not a expert on code writing. If your comfortable with it take a look at the program and tell me how much you would charge to Implement it.

Any suggestions on how I can make this work. The Affiliate Has a School site for teachers,parents,Home Schoolers

The Magazine they are Interested in is
Any one have any suggestions :)

Thanks In Advance

Lee
