StatsJunky Looks Pretty Sweet

by Jeremy Schoemaker on May 21, 2009 · 104 comments

All serious affiliate marketers doing substantial profit margins always have 1 major thing in common and that is a central “Dashboard” of all of their earnings among all the networks. Most marketers have several accounts, some even with the same company. And most of the affiliates doing 6-7 figures a month are 1 man shops.

So you can either build your own dashboard which shows you all of your earnings or you can purchase software to do it for you.

The guys at StatsJunky pinged me to check out their product and I gotta say it looks pretty sweet.

So what makes StatsJunky different from all the open source/hosted tracking applications?

Less Points Of Failure:
With hosted/open source tracking apps, you have to invest tons of time setting up your dashboard and generating tons of links for every campaign. Not only that, but running software like this can be risky. If the hosted server is down or delayed, this is going to drastically cut into your revenue – which is a HUGE point of failure.

Security:
If you use StatsJunky, all of the data stays on your computer. You don’t have to worry about a hosted application having all of your campaigns/keywords.

Plugins:
All major affiliate networks are compatible with StatsJunky and if there’s something you want – they will write a plugin for you.

Education They conduct DAILY webinars for StatsJunky users.

So StatsJunky sounds like something you need? Well, I’ve talked StatsJunky into giving away THREE FREE StatsJunky accounts with 1 year access. Want one?

woo… the numbers really stunt me…. I’m not a super affiliate, or any great affiliate but seeing the number really a very motivating way for me to believe making money online really is truly amazing…..

This looks pretty sweet, my PPC campaigns are pretty small for my affiliate sites but having an account at dozens of different programs doesn’t make things easy to keep track of.

I’ll retweet this the now as I’m sure it’ll help some people too.

I’d try it out on a free demo or something. I wouldn’t drop $80/mo on something I’ve never tried though.

how would you be “dropping” $80/month when it comes with a 30 day money back guarantee? if you don’t like it, $0

I can’t imagine how useful this app really is because I am just getting starting in my affiliate marketing, but I’m sure that anyone armed with this much information, whether new or experienced, would benefit from this immensely. I’d be excited to give the free access membership a go… and to learn how to put up those kinds of numbers!

10 Christian May 21, 2009 at 12:08 pm

Funny, I was just thinking about the viability of a central affiliate stats site like this the other day. I was told by a few people that they didn’t think it would work because the reporting wouldn’t be accurate enough. Maybe we were wrong.

I’d like to try it out.

11 Sil May 21, 2009 at 12:13 pm

I tried stats junky back in November and the trial was buggy. Statsremote is another program that I was looking at it too. I’ll check out this version. One thing i liked was the interface of statsjunky..

This definitely looks interesting, as I have some issues with Tracking202. I’ve actually been writing my own tracking software to fill my needs. I’d rather go off the shelf any day though!

anyway, need to win that one year to find out

I don’t know what happened with them but their profit and revenue was very chaotic. One month it would be 43,000 then the next or in a couple of months it would be only 4,000. Now I’m not a master of business and financial but I do know that major fluctuation are a bad thing to have even if you are still making money.

I think it’s a pretty slick and integrated interface – saw it several times in Jasons screencasts.

As I just realized, it’s $708 for 18 months of using it. That’s not even close to $2 a day. Someone who isn’t making at least that amount probably doesn’t need the software anyway. But still: free is better than paid here, so it would be nice ;)

I thought the same thing, but I figured it up and one of their packages comes down to less than $1.40 a day and it would save at least 15 minutes of my time each day (probably more like hours). I know I can use those 15 mins to make more than $1.40

I’m definitely going to enter this, I have been using their free trial for a few days now and just having all of my stats in front of me in one spot is amazing! I just started keyword tracking but am afraid my trial will run out before I really see my winning keywords..no worries there though, I believe I will be buying a one year membership. I should be able to make that money back in no time.

I was just using this software on their free trial when I saw this post. Just wanted to add something neat I found out today. They have a part of the software that allows you to add custom income and expenses! So now I can throw in things like my hosting costs and see true profit, it’s not the wheel but it’s just another thing that makes my life that much easier.

98 Paul June 5, 2009 at 9:11 am

Knowing where your campaigns are at any moment is the competitive edge. And keeping your information (keywords, successful campaigns) private is essential business security.

Other software I’ve looked at are server based and therefore compromise your security and access.

This is the solution…l can hardly wait to win!

Did you ever actually end up using StatsJunky Jeremy? The program doesn’t work at all anymore and they’ve been stiffing people on refunds. On top of that, their customer service is the worst I’ve ever had to deal with. They take forever to respond if at all, and when they do, they are completely unhelpful.

StatsJunky really could have been a promising product, but instead they’ve resorted to scamming people. Really sad.
