The LinkShare reports are a mess. So hard to tell what's going on. Still, I suppose it's better than nothing, and the 5% never hurts :-b Yes, I learned that recently from reading my reports, and it was really surprising. The LinkShare reports are a mess.

Here's an interesting tidbit you may not be aware of. Keep in mind that if you use the u1 signature parameter for Linkshare, it tracks ALL purchases made from that referral, not just conversions on your app. You might be able to correlate a referral to a conversion, based on price, etc, but it's not obvious from the Linkshare reports what the user actually purchased. -Matt Noel, this is good stuff.

As for the layout, it was pretty much random. I had browsed a bunch of those "Top 10 blah blah blah themes" but nothing stood out. Then I saw another blog with a format I really liked and it was a modified Hamaski theme. I spent a couple of hours massaging it and it was ready to go. Glad you found the article useful, George.

It's this sort of technical detail that I really like to see in articles. Nice change to the layout of your site, too. How did you find the theme? Do you just browse randomly, or is there a cleverer way to find them? Nice post Noel.
