The Search Monitor Releases Software That Measures the Reach of Affiliate Programs on Paid Search

The Search Monitor (“TSM”), an online monitoring service that tracks competitive advertising activity on paid and organic search, blogs, forums, news, and web sites, announces its release of a new affiliate tracking software that identifies affiliate marketers who are sponsoring paid search results pages.

This powerful new tool is the first and only way for internet marketers to gain insight into the scope, strength, and breadth of their competitor’s affiliate programs. The Search Monitor is able to identify affiliates who deploy direct linking tactics and affiliates who manage and operate individual web sites.

Uses for this new tool include:

Measurement of the reach and strength of competitors’ affiliate programs on paid search.
Policing affiliates for compliance with affiliate program terms of use.
Identification of competitor’s affiliates for potential recruitment opportunities.
“Affiliate programs are a smart way to gain maximum exposure on paid search,” says Troy Lerner of The Booyah Agency. “By using affiliate programs as a tactic in our arsenal, our clients can own more page real estate on SERPs. We like the new reports from The Search Monitor because it gives us incredible insight as to where our affiliate efforts are strong and where we need to focus more time. Our clients love it because it enables them to build strength in numbers, while at the same time protecting their brands from misuse by affiliate marketers.”

“We are excited to bring this information about the affiliate channel to internet advertisers and their agencies,” says Lori Weiman, CEO of The Search Monitor. “We are a strong supporter of affiliate marketing as a powerful way to optimize online advertising in a controlled and deliberate way”
