    Default Tracking with embedded games

    I'm trialing a couple of embedded games on my site. The tracking seems rather complicated, and as I anticipate that these will hopefully result in a high click through rate, how do you know if it is working?
    Standard ads and links are fine, but with these it just feels maybe there might be problems.
    The games also have a selection of games in thumbnails below the featured game, all hosted in Flash. If I'm trialing Rainbow Riches, and the player decides to click on another fruit down the bottom, would that still be tracked?

    Thanks

    I'm using SkyVegas. I assume when someone plays the game, it doesn't show up as a click on my affiliate account (because it's not). So only registered clicks show?

    Pixel tracking. You will probably need to see the code and then find out if there is pixel tracking embedded.

    Well one thing I do when I use embedded games is that I often add text ads with specific calls to action to visit the casino, usually below the game.

    Also you have to have some faith in who you get the games from...

    I now prefer Affiliate Edge for the rtg games

    Playtech's I do not currently have any of theirs up. (I think they are available from Will Hill, BetFred, Bet365, WJ) not sure about FocalClick

    For Micogaming I actually have brightshare games up on a site but if your on a us ip you cant even see the games although back in the day their tracking on theirs was excellent.

    If an affiliate program is not small affiliate friendly (especially small US Affiliate), then they are NOT Affiliate Friendly!

    Hi TheMoonCheese,

    I will PM you and give you some details. Embedded games are fully trackable for Sky Vegas regardless of whether the user navigates to other games from within the iframe but there is a set process you should follow.

    Thanks,

    Dean
