Tracking & Conversion Domain Management

Complete guide to setting up, managing, and assigning tracking and conversion domains using Traffic Health. Learn how to configure default domains and create assignments.

Overview

This article will guide you through understanding, setting up, and managing both tracking and conversion domains using the Traffic Health interface.

Proper domain management ensures accurate click tracking, reliable conversion attribution, and optimal campaign performance across your affiliate network.

Understanding Domain Types in Everflow

Domains in Everflow can handle both tracking and conversion functions, but it's important to understand their primary purposes:

Tracking Domains

Used in Partner tracking links to track Clicks coming through to your Offers. When a Partner promotes your Offer, their tracking link uses your tracking domain to:

Record the Click event
Capture Partner and Offer information
Redirect users to the final destination
Enable proper Attribution

Conversion Domains

Used in Conversion postbacks and pixels by Advertisers to fire Conversions into Everflow. These domains ensure:

Reliable Conversion tracking
Proper Attribution back to the original Click
Accurate partner commission calculations

Note All domains can function as both tracking and conversion domains. You can use the same domain for both purposes or separate domains for organizational reasons.

At the top of the Configurations tab, you'll see:
