Arrow Trader V - Installation

Arrow Trader 5 is very easy to install, all that is required is a web browser.
After completing this guide, your site will be using AT5 to track and control all visitor activity.

step 1/4: server selection

Open the following page - http://www.arrowscripts.com/register_at5.php
Select a location that is geographically closest to your surfers

step 2/4: domain registration

On the Arrow Trader 5 server of your choice, click the link Register new domain and fill out the form

step 3/4: tracking visitors

After registering your domain, you will be presented with a couple of links and codes.

The first textarea holds you personalized javascript code to track incoming visitors,
which looks something like this

<script>var __AT5ID = '123abc456def789ghi';var __AT5params = '';</script>
<script src="http://surfus.me/at5/in.js"></script>

* Copy this code between the <head> </head> tags of the homepage of your website.
* copy the code from the registration page, the code above doesn't include your personal tracking code!

step 4/4: tracking & controlling clicks

The second textarea shows an example links to track and control clicks made by visitors

<a href='http://surfus.me/cgi-bin/at5/out.cgi?a=123abc456def789ghi&u=http://content.com'>content page</a>


Arrow Trader 5 can track all clicks on links, and distribute those clicks to content pages and to the websites of traffic trade partners. To do so, the format of your links need to be slightly adjusted.

A regular link on your website may currently look like this

<a href='http://google.com'>google</a>

To integrate AT5 within your links, modify the code so it looks like this

* <a href="'http://surfus.me/cgi-bin/at5/out.cgi?a=123abc456def789ghi&s=60&l=vid&c=1&u=http://google.com">google</a>

make sure that you use the correct url and installation ID; you can find the correct code in your email inbox.
