I have added a new feature to the forums: Referral tracking.
You will notice in
your profile that there are three new statistics that the forums now track:
Referrals: The amount of members that have actually signed up as a result of you directing them to the forums.
-Referral hits: The amount of times people have thought about signing up for a membership as a result of your efforts.
-Referral link: This link can be placed on a web page, email, another forum, etc in order to have new members sign up and give you credit for the registration. Prospective members have 60 days to sign up for a membership before the cookie will expire. Of course, if the user clears their cookies, you will not be credited for the sign up.
In the future I plan on having referral contests to see who can send the most members this way. We're talking quality members here. Not Bobby Dodgerson type members.
