First the application:

One, I am into affiliate marketing.

Awhile back I had an up line member teach us how to drive traffic to our web site. Most of us were not computer savvy and still are not I might add. But what he would do for us was build a simple html code that we would copy and paste into our web editor. Once complete we would fill in the blanks so to speak with our information.

Well in the original html we were directed to put our web site in a (href) spot of the html. This href reference was coded like most hyper links I have seen but at the end of the tag Was a code that stated =0 or =1. One was on my page and the other was on his landing page (his page). I cannot remember the sequence. So basically this link directed me to his page with a reference to my sign up page for new prospects.

Anyhow the purpose of this function was to drive people from my down lines site to my site for more detailed instructions. If the prospect decided to get involved he would click on the sign up link on the main page (Mine).

Now after this happened the (href link) code from my down lines page somehow interacted with the same link on my page and forwarded the prospect to his sign up page.

If it came from any other source than the code would accept it as my sign up from another source (my advertising) and direct the prospect to my sign up page.

OK that is what we achieved before but I don’t know how to set up this code or html in my page to make this happen.

I really need someone to help me out here if you know an example of how to do this to include the (href) string for both the main page (landing page) an the delivery page (the on line affiliate)

If you know the words I should be using to ask this question better, in html terminology please enlighten me.

OK that’s it in a nut shell. Looking for html that will interact between two pages from different sites and achieve one basi need. Direct that person to the proper link address.

+1  A: 

Your HTML pages actually need code on the back end (PHP, .NET, etc) in order to understand the parameters that your friend is sending you (the "=0" stuff at the end of the address) Without seeing that code, no one can really tell you eaactly what to put in the URL for the links (the "href" parts)
