How can we record where the orders come from?

How can we track where the orders come from? Yes, we can track visitors and traffic by google analytics. But I don't know the original source of orders.

Can I create links such as

www.mysite.com/index.php?source=here
www.mysite.com/index.php?source=there

and then track the orders?

Thanks for your advice.

BTW, I just bought one coffer for zen-cart team, thanks for your efforts and great work.

Re: How can we record where the orders come from?

If you are asking about affiliate tracking, then you would need to add a specialist program such as JROX Affiliate Manager.

Just adding parameters to Zen Cart URLs won't help if Zen Cart doesn't already know about them. It's probable that it will interpret them as hack attempts and throw them away.
