Affiliate Program questions and recommendations

[hockey2112]

I am hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. A client wishes to do an affiliate program with one affiliate in particular. that affiliate (it's just an individual, not some larger company) has the following needs:


He is looking for three affiliate links and a session cookie.

* One affiliate link should point to the main website (http://www.homepage.com)

* One affiliate link should point to the product of the month club (http://www.homepage.com/product-of-t...oose-5-flavors)

* One affiliate link should point to the all products page (http://www.homepage.com/index.php?ma...e=products_all)


He wants to track sales conversions for each entry point separately.

Additionally, he wants a session cookie set up for anyone coming in through those affiliate links, set to expire after 60 days. That way, if someone comes in originally through his link, browses away, and comes back, we don't lose track of them.


I don't have much experience with setting up affiliates, so my brain is sort of swimming without a real direction to go in. Can anyone point me in the right direction regarding the best / easiest way to set this up?

Thanks!

There's a few addons that might do what you need, or at least give you more instruction:
