Epoch URL tricks

I know if you add &u=http://site.com/some-document.htm to Epoch affiliate URLs you can change the page the Epoch affiliate URL sends the person to much like you can with CCBill’s &HTML=

Today I noticed something on You Love Jack - he’s using things like &rfr=Hosted+Gallery+#7655 on his galleries (see example).

My question is, where does rfr show up? It it something an affiliate can see or is it only for internal use by the sponsor? Actually, the fact that it’s more than one letter makes me wonder whether it’s just something he uses internally with his analytics package and isn’t part of Epoch at all…

And are there other tricks like those that could be useful for an affiliate to know?

I’m sure i saw someone else doing the same… just can’t remember who. Would be good to know how it works.

Re: Epoch URL tricks

Those urls are actually automatic when you create the hosted gallery. It is just tracking the hosted gallery separately in stats. You should be able to see that in the epoch affiliate stats area.
