Double Ad-Trackers Its Not as Crazy as It Sounds Here Are 7 Reasons Why?
A Double Ad Tracker is an Ad-Tracker that points to an AD-Tracker. It may sound a bit like overkill to have an Ad-Tracker Pointing at another Ad-Tracker but it's not crazy.
The Type of double Ad-Tracker this article discusses is where you have a Re-Direct Link from your Domain Pointing at a Re-Direct Link from a 3rd party weather it is free or Paid. Here is an Example of a Double Tracking.
* Step 1 Build the Free Tracker
Build the Free Ad Tracker (

We will now explore 7 Reasons why you should Create Double Ad Trackers.
1 - Free Trackers Go out of business
Actually Paid trackers go out of business too. When I was looking for a Free AD-Tracker to use as a Demo for this Article I actually came across more Free Ad tracker Services that were out of business then were in Business.
2 - You Change Your Service.
There are many excellent Places to buy Paid Ad-trackers from. The problem with paid ad-trackers is that once you sign up and set up 100's of trackers you are reluctant to change your service. If you use Double Trackers you could simply point to the new tracker and the problem is solved. See Cascading Trackers below for details on how to do this.
3 - More Control
Some Ad tracking services especially the Free ones require you to have your web site approved. If you need to Point your tracker at a new URL you may face a delay unless you use double Trackers.
4 - Cascading Trackers - Oh no not the Triple Tracker
Lets Say you want to Redirect many URLS to
http://free-RedirectYou Build a Page called
http://the-Redirect and Point it to
http://free-RedirectYou now Point all you other Redirects to
http://the-Redirect so
http://the-Redirect1,
http://the-Redirect2 ...are all pointing at
http://the-Redirect. Now if the URL of
http://free-Redirect changes you change
http://the-Redirect to point to
http://free-Redirect-new and all the URLS that point to
http://the-Redirect should still work with no change.
5 - Trackers go down for maintenance
If a Tracker goes down for maintenance, right after your expensive ad campaign starts you will be very thankful that you have a Double tracker. You simply Point your Top Tracker to a new working URL.
6 - Brand your Web Site
You get your URL displayed all over the Internet. Not the URL of some Ad-Tracking Service.
7 - Search Engines
The Search Engines see your Domain's URL all over the Internet not the URL of an Ad-Tracking Service.
Now that you see how easy it is to use Double Trackers and the extra benefits they give you it's not so crazy is it!
