Say I have 20 free sites (TGP's AVS, MGP, link list, whatever). Then I have Hundreds of accounts with different affiliate programs, each having links allover my network of sites. How do you track income per site? Even further, what do you do to track income per ad/link location on your site, when there are multiple locations per site?
I know some sponsors allow you to set up different tracking codes, while others don't. Furthermore, I use StatsRemote regularly. It tracks just about every program we are using and gives me a good global income #. However it doesn't do everything.
I am trying to prevent having to create a separate affiliate account for each site we have. I'm wanting to come up with better organization for the stats we do have allowing me to track income down to each and every location on our sites.
Perhaps a sponsor converts better on one site than another, and I have no way to really track as I only see 1 conversion and hits #
Can it be done?

I have been sitting here racking my brain for the past half hour (which is about 29 minutes longer than it usually take me to say "two weeks")
I can sss some fairly easy solutions to coming up with where you sent the hits from, in other words tracking from your end but the other side of the equation, which of those hits made the sale is the part that is perplexing me. I know that some sponsor stats show it, so tying that part together is pretty easy, but the ones that don't show what referrer sent the hit and getting it tied back to the sending side stats is where I see the problem....
But, my brain is working on it
