What is "wgcampaignid"?

Hi,

On the Virgin Balloons programme there is a specific link which contains the variable

wgcampaignid=xxxx

I assume that xxxx has to be replaced with something!

Can anyone from webgains confirm what this is please?

Thanks

Simon

nicely put keith!
the campaign id is the equivalent of the affiliate id and identifies your traffic/cookies in the tracking link and tracking code. For every site you have, you can create a separate campaign if you want, so that reporting is separated by using a different campaign id. You sign up to merchants on a campaign level, so you choose who you partner with for each of your sites. Earnings from all your campaigns are combined in one payment for your affiliate account.
You can view all details of your campaign by going in Sites & Keyword campaigns-->Sites & Keyword campaigns

hope this helps
thanks
