Search Patterns
A search pattern is used to identify an affiliate link, either directly
in the URL of the PPC ad, or in the landing page.
The system currently tracks 16 affiliate network program patterns. The
system is flexible, so that you only have to enter a new "regex" of the
affiliate program and it will be included and tracked by the system
This section allows you to edit / delete / add patterns.
To add a new affiliate
network link pattern click on the "Create
New Search Pattern" link at the top of the page.
NOTE: Adding new
affiliate networks requires a very good working knowledge of "regular
expressions" or what they call "regex". Just as with proxies this area
is really for professionals and we do not have nor give training on
understanding and using regular expressions or regex. There is already
training available online which can be located by doing a search on
google.com. We only add this section as an added value service for
those professionals who would use our software and need this feature.
Please do not contact our support about how to use or understand
regular expressions if you currently are not knowledgeable in this
area. It is up to you to locate and get training about regular
expressions if you wish to utilize this feature.

When creating a new pattern :

You can add it to an existing Affiliate Network, or
create a new one. You will then enter the Regular expression and a test
link (a test link is simply an affiliate link). The built-in checker
will tell you if your “regex” is valid.
