ClickMagick ClickTracking Tool Review 2018

 

 

Wether you’re a entrepreneur, social media manager or perhaps affiliate marketer, any person doing business on the internet will eventually experience one big problem.

The ability to track the right data can become confusing when there is not the right program in place. Not too long ago, I didn’t have a set program.

I would track all my data in an Excel sheet, it started of as one sheet called “link tracking“. Not even two weeks later I had four tabs with over a hundred links each.

Then it happened, I started to make typo mistakes and as “smart” as I am I linked all cells to each other for “easy” calculations. You probably know what happened next..

Yes, it became one huge mess. It took me hours and hours to find the error.

And once I did, I decided things had to be different.

Some of you might know how I’m obsessed with data tracking. At any moment of any campaign wether it’s organic SEO or PPC.

I need to know metrics like CTR, CPC and ROI.

So instead of pulling my hair out, I started looking for a program which could help me with my obvious problem.

That’s when my friend Catlin from Bettridge Online Industries Inc. introduced me to ClickMagick.

At first I was a little skeptical, as I always am about new programs and software.

So I decided to run a 14 day trial because hell, why not, it’s free right.

After the 14 days, I was hooked! This tracking program made my life SO MUCH EASIER.

Plus, I haven’t used my excel file since, such a blessing.

Of course, I will share my full experience in this article so you can see if ClickMagick is right for your business.

Let’s have a closer look at this ClickMagick Review and see why this world famous link tracking program is so popular right now.

 

 

 

 

What is ClickMagick?

ClickMagick is one of the hottest click tracking tools on the market and unlike other services that only offer “click tracking”, this one actually has 19 different functions constructed into their platform to track entire sales funnels, include retargeting to links, split test, programmed geo-targeting, mobile filtering and a lot more.

The extra features is what makes ClickMagick really stand out from the competition which usually only offer basic functions to track links. Below you will find a complete overview of the most important features which you can utilise.

ClickMagick Features

The program offers a large variety of different features, below you will find an overview of all the main features.

• Split Testing

Any marketer knows that split tests are a huge game changer and we can’t really live without them. The data will tell you which offer performs better so you can make the right decisions for your business.

ClickMagick has a built in Split Testing tool which allows you to track, monitor and evaluate split test. This can be very powerful when sending PPC traffic. Sending paid traffic to a less converting offer makes you miss out on the dollars which you deserve!

• Basic Link Tracking

For most people this will be the main tool they will use. The basic link tracking will give you the opportunity to track a specific link, assign this link to a group and cloak the link if needed.

In my business I use the linkcloaker for all my affiliate links. Nobody wants to see a ugly affiliate url which might even scare off a potential buyer, they are long and scare looking sometimes.

What I like about the cloaking feature is that you can also change the name of the tab, so you can enter whatever you like the person to see.

The statistics the link tracking will provide are:

1. Total Clicks
2. Unique Clicks
3. Flagged Clicks
4. Action
5. Action Conversion Rate
6. Engagement
7. Engagement Conversion Rate
8. Sales (Unique Customers)
9. Sales Conversion Rate
10. Cost per Click
11. Cost per Action
12. Cost per Sale
13. Earning per Click
14. Return on Investment

Click any of the terms listed above to get a detailed explanation.

As you can tell by the data trackers listed above, this program allows you to track and optimise your links. So you can make as many conversions as possible.

The Link group feature is also pretty useful if you have tons and tons of different categories to track. You can assign links to different group so you have a nice overview. Meaning, you won’t have all links showing all the time.

You can just select the group you would like to see and have a nice and detailed overview for that group.

Groups usually for me are specific websites or links to specific offers all put together.

• Advanced Link Tracking

Gives you to opportunity to add additional info to your tracking links.

Things like Magickbars and Pop Ups, which will be discussed below can be added in the “advanced portion” of creating a tracking link.

You can also specify the actual traffic cost, so you know the exact CPC, CPA, CPS on a daily or monthly basis.

Furthermore, you can use Geotargeting, where you can include and exclude specific target countries. My default all countries are included.

Personally, I haven’t played around with geotargeting yet but I’ve heard it’s super powerful. Really looking forward to using it sometime soon.

Several options for urls are also given, you can for instance assign a specific back up url in case something might go wrong with the original url.

A specific mobile and IOS url may be provided and a repeat url.

Need to add in a pixel code? No problem, there is a separate tab for that.

Also, you are able to set “bad” clicks meaning, tell the program which clicks to flag and which ones not to flag.

Bad clicks are processed different from normal clicks like, abusers, anons, bots, servers, spiders and users. You can flag, block or do nothing.

I often use this when I order solo ads from Udimi. Usually Udimi gives a good traffic report but I always like to double check the data. I preset which clicks to flag so later when the solo ad run has been fulfilled I can have a look at the flagged clicks. You can read more about solo ads and ClickMagick at Link tracking for Solo Ads in the last part of this artcile.

• Basic Link Rotators

A link rotator can distribute clicks to multiple people and is therefore often used by solo ads sellers and co-ops.

The option menu to create a rotator looks pretty similar to the links menu.

You can set the url and choose the rotator mode.

1. Fulfilment – Fulfill all clicks before moving onto the next url (incl. repeat clicks)
2. Spillover – Fulfil all clicks before moving onto the next url BUT repeat clicks are moved to the next url. [solo ads seller use this]
3. Random – Randomly assign clicks to urls
4. Sequential – Distribute clicks equally per url, everybody one click first, then everybody gets their second click.

There is an option to cloak the rotator if needed.

For the rotator a backup url is mandatory. This will be used if there are no eligible rotate URLs based on your settings.

I dont’ really use this feature myself but I do know some solo ads sellers which mainly use ClickMagick for this feature.

This Spillover effect makes their work really easy and basically automates the entire solo ad click deliver process for them once the links have been entered.

• Advanced Link Rotators

This includes the same options as the advanced link tracking but then for the rotator.

Click here to learn more about the advanced link rotator feature.

• Organic Traffic Tracking

By using a small piece of code which can be used on any page on your website you can track all organic traffic coming to your website from social media and search engines. Basically all traffic that’s not coming through your custom made tracking links.

It’s pretty cool to see the organic traffic report. I mean its obviously more important to track traffic you actually paid for, don’t get me wrong but there is a lot of value in tracking organic traffic.

The data can teach you things you might not have seen before and it’s easier to understand than Google Analytics.

Personally, I think it’s only worth it to do the organic traffic if you really have some good volume of traffic coming in each month.

With some of my niche sites, getting less than 1000 clicks a month I don’t bother.

But my authority sites which get over 30000 organic clicks a month, for sure, track the data, analyse the data, love the data. It brings in more money if you understand the data over time.

Here’s how it work so instead of creating a “link” or “rotator” it is now called a “project”.

Through the Manage button you can click the “Get website code” and get the code to install on your website.

Organic Traffic Tracking is only available on the Standard plan and above as of now.

• Pop Ups

Pop ups are very powerful, you can show a message or collect leads on pages which you DO NOT OWN.

For instance: when you send someone to an affiliate offer you do not have the opportunity to capture leads, with a ClickMagick pop up you do now!

I’m seriously in love with this feature, I do have exit pop ups on my Clickfunnel landing pages and WordPress websites but for pages you do not own, like affiliate offers etc. there isn’t much you can do.

But then there’s ClickMagick Pop Ups! So how it work, when you use the url you can add an exit pop up or whatever pop up you like from the option menu.

The program basically layers the website through the URL, so it can trigger an pop up. Let me tell you, this has given me so many leads!

It’s like the best gold miner available for list builders because you can now collect emails on website you own, and website you do not own.

Let’s have a look at the different options.

There are five types of pop ups in ClickMagick:

1. Onload Pop up – Shows as soon as the page is loaded
2. Intelligent Pop up – Shows when the user wants to leave the page
3. Standard Exit Pop up – Java Script Alert on exit
4. Exit Redirect Pop up – Sends browser to entered url
5. After “x” seconds Pop up –

You can either make the display box close-able or not and set a cookie duration time.

Click here to learn more about the pop ups feature.

• MagickBars

You can create custom content like a countdown timer [ClickMagick Timers, see below] on any website with MagickBars.

Installation is actually pretty simple. You can choose wether to display the bar on the top or bottom of the image.

Just edit the pixel height and when you would like to bar to load.

You can either make the display box close-able or not and set a duration time.

Mostly I use it to display a countdown timer on an affiliate offer but it’s also nice to add discount or coupon code if available.

It works wonders due to the fact that you can enter the text yourself. You can manually enter the data and add the coupon code like: “Only of June 2nd 20% off with June2nd20”.

The scarcity in combination with the discount results in pretty impressive sales compared to no MagickBar

ClickMagick Pricing FAQ

What if I surpass my plan’s click limit?

During your free trial there are no limitations. After your trial, if you surpass your strategy limit by 10% or more, you’ll be upgraded to the next highest plan that accomodates your real usage.

Is there a minimum commitment?

Definitely not. There are no signup fees, cancellation charges, agreements or minimum terms. You can use ClickMagick for as brief or as long as you desire, and you can cancel at any time.

Is there anything I CAN’T track with ClickMagick?

Due to massive unmanageable click fraud problems, ClickMagick does NOT track traffic from “bulk” traffic websites, auto-surf traffic exchanges, or Pay-Per-View (PPV) traffic platforms.

These traffic sources create lots of fake clicks, cause issues for the CM users and unneeded assistance tickets for CM, and ClickMagick just does not desire this kind of traffic associated with our platform.

You cannot track adult traffic with ClickMagick either, for most of the same reasons – we just don’t desire all of the rip-offs and fraud intrinsic to adult traffic to be related to the platform.

ClickMagick Link Tracking for SEO

Organic tracking offers important data and actionable stats on your traffic that does not get here via a tracking link, consisting of clicks from search engines like Google and social websites like Facebook.

You’ll see all the same statistics you’re used to – consisting of conversion data – and in between your tracking links and organic statistics you’ll have the complete picture on ALL your traffic.

It’s also a GREAT method to find brand-new prospective traffic sources, partners and affiliates!

ClickMagick for Link Tracking Solo Ads

Whenever I order solo ads from Udimi I always like to track the traffic myself as well, it’s not that I don’t trust Udimi, I mean it’s a great platform for solo ads. I think it’s just always better to double check than to make mistakes.

Whenever you use ClickMagick for solo ads the most important feature you will look at once the run is done is the traffic score. Basically, ClickMagick tracks the traffic, clicks, amount of bots etc. and gives it a score, the higher the score the higher the quality of the traffic.

It looks like this:

If you’re not a buyer but a solo ads seller the rotator and link manager you use is the core of your business.

ClickMagick rotators can do everything other rotators can do, plus more. Like …

• True “set and forget” Tier 1 traffic settings. Simply enter the precise T1 percentage and hit it whenever.
• Mobile filtering permits you to restrict the mobile clicks to your customers, or you can reroute them all elsewhere.
• Faster redirects mean less lost clicks. You ‘d need to invest $100+ a month for a dedicated server to obtain anywhere near the speed of ClickMagick with a self-hosted tracking/rotator script.
• Bot filtering ways you send out a lot less fake clicks to your customers, which’s simply much better for your company.
• Include Retargeting pixels to any rotator and build hyper-responsive audiences of your most active remote controls, and so on
• Include Pop Ups & MagickBars to any rotator. Use these to increase conversions for your clients by pre-selling their deal, or any variety of other things. Here’s exactly what among our users stated about this function …

ClickMagick Tutorials

After that each of the main feature have their own introduction video, so you can get started right away. All the details of each feature are discussed so you know exactly what you’re working with.

I think it’s great because most of the information can be quite overwhelming especially if you’re new to link tracking and online marketing.
