For NATS programs, other than on tours... So hosted galleries, promo tools, ect. If you 'direct link to the join page' it will not track clicks and it will not set a cookie. Yes, this method tosses ratios off for galleries, very much so.
With NATS codes, if you add /join to the end of a linking code, it will take you to the join page. It sets a cookie and tracks the click.
So if you look at your sponsor galleries, and you see direct join page linking codes (for nats programs) you may want to tell them the proper way to link to join pages, so your traffic will be tracked properly.
If you see proper /join links for nats progs, you know it's 100% tracking every click, every time.. and setting a proper cookie.
Any NATS owners reading this: If you hard link join pages, let say the visitor previously visited one of your other Paysites. When the visit the direct linked join page, the "other" paysites join page will pull up.
