How to integrate GoDaddy affiliate conversions in Google Analytics

If you wish to integrate all your GoDaddy Affiliate conversions in Google Analytics and other marketing tools, it is necessary to track and match the sales data with the traffic data. Our system automatically places SubIDs in your affiliate links, which enables us to automatically match your traffic and affiliate conversion data.

The installation is done in four simple steps:

  1. Create a wecantrack account
  2. Connect your GoDaddy (CJ Affiliate) account to our system via API
  3. Connect your website to our system
  4. Activate the integration feature

Those credentials need to be filled in within our data sources page which you can find by following this link: https://app.wecant​rack.com/user/data​-source/networks/commission-junction/accounts/create

Connecting GoDaddy to wecantrack makes sense if you fall into any of these buckets:

  • Web hosting and domain content sites running GoDaddy affiliate links across domains, shared hosting, WordPress hosting, and Microsoft 365 who need per-product commission data back in Google Analytics.
  • Small-business tools content publishers and freelancer-focused operators with high-volume GoDaddy click activity who need clean Site-ID and SubID attribution.
  • Paid media buyers running Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, or Meta to GoDaddy landing pages and needing CPS commission data flowing back for ROAS optimisation.
  • YouTube and newsletter creators promoting GoDaddy for new domain registrants who need session-level commission data alongside their CJ Affiliate dashboards.
