What is the logic behind the NATS tracking code?
 

I was plaing with my Brazzers links and saw two of the characters determined pps or rev share and I think I made a few more connections (been a while now), but then I noticed there were other Brazzers site that seemed to have completely different logic. Can anyone explain this?

i don't know, but they look totally unlogic to me :)

Webmaster username:program short name:site short name

Thanks for the post. I have a few questions/points if you don't mind.


Do you mean a code representing my webmaster username because my user name is not there.

I can see how program name switched and there was a different logic at my brazzers sites since some could have been juggcash and some could have been brazcash.

I don't see anychange between site name.

You didnt mention pps or rev share.

and what about the 0,0,0, crap?

It is the info stated above and then run through base64 encoding.

Many sponsors allow you to set the code (on your site) unecrypted. Try that and you will get it.

Thanks for the info everyone!

If you are looking at the unencoded URL's, you should see your username. The Program short name is the pps or rev programs, short names. They can be anything, like the site short names.

add &toggle=1 to the end of the linking code page on nats programs and it will flip between encoded and nonencoded links.

The 0,0,0 is extended tracking data, the end number is the tour ID, if a Paysite has a tour setup within it's main tour, the id number of it will be here. Same deal with the other numbers, just different things to add onto the tracking.

Unencoded: username[,campaign]:programShortName:siteShortName[tour,tracking,info]
Encoded: campaignID:programID:siteID[tour,tracking,info]

Not sure if you've ever rolled your own codes for fun, but it's amazing what you can find ;)
