Is there any sort of tracking available so we can track our different marketing methods?

You can try clickaudit, they are free to join.

But this can't tell me who signed up...

I want to be able to track where the people who signed up came from....

Is this possible?

I am completely new to internet marketing as well as GDI but am ready to hit it hard. This is the best oppurtunity I've come across and plan to take full advantage of it. I was wondering if anyone could help me or give me an idea of how to set up an auto responder.
Thank you, Nick Truran

Can anyone answer how to full finish your website so that it actually looks authentic and how do you get different sorts of banners to advertise on my website and how do you link all the eight pages to one page after another ve been doing this for two weeks and I am enjoying myself if i could just figure how to make my hyperlinks camouflage under like banners and ads that I want to promote can someone help  8)me with this?

When you say authentic do you mean making the website from scratch without using the GDI standard templates?
If so, then you'll need to use your own web application (such as frontpage or dreamweaver ) instead of the GDI site builder

For banner linking, you can use the following code:

<a href="http://www.website.ws/username"><img src="http://images.website.ws/banners/kvmlm2/234x60_04.gif" border="0"></a>

http://www.website.ws/username is the website url that you want people to go when they click on the banner
Remember to change username to your GDI username

http://images.website.ws/banners/kvmlm2/234x60_04.gif is the url of where the banner image is stored in the server

I am a neebie and am researching current GDI capabilites. GDI does not offer SQL server to its clients. Hopefully they will soon at a nominal fee. You will need to buy hosting externally and link the database to your GDI pages. Without these tools in place, GDI members could lose potential income.

Try using the Advanced search on the forum pages to research your topics of interest.

Hi All,
I'm new -- still in my trial week, but I have every intention of giving this my best effort.  I have been spending the past few days reading all the old posts in the forum to gain insight.  The question I have now is about the capture page.  I have read so much about making your own capture page and getting an autoresponder for this as opposed to using the GDI ready-made page as the capture page.  I'm just not understanding yet what the advantages are of making your own capture page.   If you use one of the ones provided by GDI, then they automatically respond for you, don't they.   Please, I know I'm missing some insight here.   Can someone please give me the reasons for making your own capture page.   I'm one of those people that has to see a reason for everything.   Thanks in advance for any advice and help.

The GDI one works fine. You need a custom one if you need more details!

You must have a file named index.htm or index.html or index.shtml to show your site and it must be in the html route directory. Then you site should work fine.
