Tracking quesiton…
It has been confirmed through 3rd parties and by my own testing that players redirected due to IP targeting are being tracked.
The site was coded in .Net and a directive was given to the coders to find a way to pass a clean link. Using ASP handlers the data such as VT number, affiliate id and other entries are captured while the page is loading and written away to a database.
The link is then shown as clean however it is being tracked – this can be verified by 1. checking visits and d/loads on the Referback stats, also by viewing the source and pulling the VT # as you move from page to page – it will be a constant number.
All the best,
Shane
