Hi everyone, some of you may know me from HP, but for those of you that don't I'm browsing through the site and finally after signing up around 5 months ago, will be writing here. Once I publish my first Wizz (Hope that's right) I'll say hi in the new comers forum. 

But, for now I wanted to know:

  • If I add products from Amazon as links and not capsules, they are auto affiliated by VigLink (If I don't add my own affiliate). For now I prefer this as the %age I get would be more as it's a higher tier. However, I wanted to know whether the VigLink affiliate changes as per the country of the viewer? When a person from the UK visits would the link be for amazon.co.uk?
  • Regarding Analytics, do I track my stats on my analytics account or does the Wizzley stats give me the info I need? Because, as in HP it would be easier as they're sub domains. But, here I have no clue as to what happens. I guess it would be just the Wizzley stats, but would like to know from others.

VigLink does not track the origin of page visitors. They simply affiliate your links as you enter them into your text. However, they do this only for merchants on their roster (many thousands!).

Amazon.co.uk happens to be covered by VigLink. If you want your visitors to go shopping there, enter the appropriate product link.

Enter "VigLink" in the search field on top of this (or any) page and you'll find several tutorials.

For exact and comprehensive stats on your wizzles, please use Google Analytics.
