ChatGPT answers, unedited
"I run a few niche blogs, which reporting platform can give me individual sub-id revenue breakdowns and exportable reports?", asked on ChatGPT about once a day from the United States. The last 22 answers, newest first, exactly as given: the raw data behind the Affiliate Marketing Platforms live demo.
Week of 24th to 30th Aug 2026 (in progress)
If you’re running several niche blogs and want revenue broken down by individual Sub-ID (site, placement, article, link, keyword, campaign, etc.) plus exportable reports, you’ll generally want either an affiliate attribution/reporting platform or a network dashboard with strong SubID support.
Good options:
| Platform | Best for | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | Export options |
|---|---|---|---|
| impact.com / Trackonomics | Multi-network affiliate publishers | Strong — reports by SubID, media property, advertiser, network | CSV, PDF, Excel, API options help.impact.com |
| wecantrack | Bloggers using many affiliate networks | Strong — SubID, content, campaign, URL-level attribution | CSV-style exports, Looker Studio, BigQuery, API wecantrack.comhelp.impact.com |
| Tapfiliate | Running your own affiliate programs | SubID/metadata tracking | CSV exports tapfiliate.com |
| StatSync | Consolidating many networks into one dashboard | Includes Sub-ID breakdowns on higher tiers | CSV/Excel exports and scheduled reports statsync.io |
| FlexOffers | Affiliate network publishers | Subtracking IDs tied to sales/commissions | CSV/Excel-style reporting tools www.flexoffers.com |
For a few niche blogs, I’d usually narrow it down like this:
If you’re mostly an affiliate publisher
Best fit: wecantrack
- Connects multiple affiliate networks.
- Lets you answer questions like:
- “Which blog made this commission?”
- “Which article generated revenue?”
- “Which CTA/link placement converts best?”
- Better than manually exporting from 10+ affiliate dashboards. wecantrack.comhelp.impact.com
If you want a professional reporting layer
Best fit: impact.com / Trackonomics
- More enterprise-oriented.
- Good if you need recurring reports, client-style dashboards, or deeper segmentation. help.impact.comstatsync.iowww.flexoffers.com
If you only need simple SubID → revenue tables
Use the affiliate networks themselves:
- Amazon Associates (via tracking IDs)
- CJ Affiliate
- Awin
- ShareASale
A good SubID naming scheme makes these tools much more useful. For example:
site=outdoorblog
article=best-tents
placement=table
position=button1
or compact:
outdoor_tents_btn1
Then your reports can show:
| SubID | Clicks | Sales | Revenue |
|---|---|---|---|
| outdoor_tents_btn1 | 12,400 | 92 | $1,840 |
| hiking_boots_table | 8,100 | 61 | $1,220 |
For your use case, I’d probably start with wecantrack if the blogs monetize through multiple affiliate networks, or Trackonomics/impact.com if you need a more advanced reporting stack. wecantrack.comhelp.impact.com
A key question: are these blogs mainly monetized through affiliate commissions (Amazon/CJ/Awin/etc.), display ads (Mediavine/Raptive/AdSense), or your own affiliate programs? The best platform changes depending on that.

Yes. If by sub-ID you mean tracking each blog/site, article, placement, or affiliate link separately and then seeing the revenue/commission attributable to each, there are a few good options.
- wecantrack.com — probably the best fit if you run multiple niche blogs across several affiliate networks. It has dedicated SubID reporting and can consolidate data across networks. Exports include Looker Studio, BigQuery, API, and webhooks rather than just CSV. wecantrack
- flexoffers.com — good if most of your monetization is within FlexOffers. Its publisher reporting specifically supports Sub ID → sales/commission breakdowns, plus CSV/Excel exports and a reporting API. FlexOffers.com Affiliate Programs
- refersion.com — has a dedicated SubID report, filtering, and CSV export. Better suited if your merchants/programs are on Refersion rather than as a universal cross-network reporting layer. Refersion Help Center
- getlasso.co — worth considering specifically for content sites. It supports SubID reports, revenue CSV exports, and comparisons across sites, pages, and links. Lasso
- trakai.io — more of an affiliate-performance/reporting platform. It supports arbitrary sub-ID dimensions, revenue/payout reporting, CSV exports, scheduled reports, and an API. trakai
What I'd pick for your use case
If you have a few independent niche blogs and multiple affiliate networks, I'd start with wecantrack. The important distinction is that it can consolidate the underlying network data, so you can get something like:
Site → Article → Link/placement → SubID → Clicks → Conversions → Revenue
rather than having to log into each affiliate network and manually reconcile reports. wecantrack
If you tell me which affiliate programs/networks you use (Amazon, Awin, CJ, Impact, ShareASale, FlexOffers, ClickBank, etc.), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that will actually give you the sub-ID revenue granularity you want, including export/API capabilities.

Yes. If by sub-ID you mean a tracking parameter you attach to links/ad placements—e.g. site1, article123, placementA—there are several platforms that can give you revenue at that granularity.
Best fits
- refersion.com — Strong choice if your blogs monetize primarily through affiliate programs. Its SubID reports specifically break performance down by SubID, and reports can be exported as CSV. Refersion Help Center
- admitad.com — Also affiliate-focused. It supports SubID/SubID1–4 reporting and filtering, with reporting that can be exported. MIT Go Developers Admitad Useresponse
- admanager.google.com — Better if you're talking about display/programmatic ad revenue rather than affiliate commissions. GAM has highly customizable reporting and CSV/XLSX exports, though the exact sub-ID capability depends on how you've implemented the tracking dimension. Google Help Google Help
- adtransfer.org — Particularly interesting for publisher ad monetization: its reporting can group traffic by subid and includes an
EARNEDrevenue metric. Adtransfer - wecantrack.com — Worth looking at if you have multiple affiliate networks and want one reporting layer. It supports custom SubID dimensions and exports through Looker Studio, BigQuery, API, and webhooks. wecantrack
What I'd choose for a few niche blogs
If you're doing affiliate monetization, I'd lean toward wecantrack if you want all your sites/networks consolidated, or Refersion/Admitad if you're mainly working within their respective affiliate ecosystems.
If you're doing display ads, I'd look at Google Ad Manager or a publisher-focused reporting platform instead.
The important distinction is whether you need something like:
Blog → article → link/placement → sub-ID → clicks → conversions → revenue
or:
Blog → ad placement/sub-ID → impressions → RPM/eCPM → revenue
If you tell me what monetization networks you're currently using (e.g. Amazon Associates, Awin, Impact, Mediavine, Raptive, AdSense/GAM, etc.), I can narrow it down to 2–3 platforms that actually support the exact revenue breakdown you need.

Yes. If by sub-ID you mean a tracking parameter you append to affiliate links—e.g. site1, article123, buttonA—there are several good options.
Best fits
| Platform | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | Export | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impact.com | Excellent — SubId 1–3, earnings, sales, clicks, EPC, conversion rate | CSV, Excel, PDF, API | Multiple affiliate programs |
| wecantrack | Excellent — custom SubID dimensions + cross-network reporting | BigQuery, API, Looker Studio, etc. | Running several blogs/networks |
| FlexOffers | Yes — dedicated Sub ID report with commissions | CSV, Excel, API | FlexOffers publishers |
| Admitad | Yes — SubID/SubID1–4 with payment data | API; reporting exports depending on setup | Affiliate-heavy sites |
My first choice for your use case would be wecantrack if you want a single reporting layer across several affiliate networks. It explicitly supports SubID reports, custom dimensions, and exporting the underlying data through API/BigQuery. wecantrack.com
If most of your revenue comes through Impact, you may not need another platform: its native Sub-ID report can break performance down by SubId 1–3 and includes Action Earnings and Total Earnings, with CSV/Excel/PDF download and API export. help.impact.com
FlexOffers is also unusually straightforward: its publisher reporting specifically includes a Sub ID Report, commissions by SubID, and report generation in CSV/Excel plus a reporting API. www.flexoffers.com
One important distinction: if you mean ad-network revenue (display ads) rather than affiliate commissions, tell me which networks you're using (Mediavine, Raptive, AdSense, Ezoic, Amazon, Impact, etc.). The answer changes quite a bit, because many ad platforms don't expose arbitrary SubID-level revenue.

Answer 5 of 22, 20th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions no tracked brands
If by “sub-ID” you mean a tracking value you pass for each site, placement, campaign, or traffic source—and you want revenue broken out by that ID plus CSV/API exports—I’d shortlist these:
| Platform | Sub-ID / granular breakdown | Revenue reporting | Export/API | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AdButler | Strong granular reporting by publisher, zone, campaign, ad item; API supports breakdowns | Yes — revenue, payout, eCPM | CSV + API | ⭐ Best all-around for niche publishers |
| Kevel | Very granular grouping/filtering, including custom dimensions/events | Yes | Reporting/API | Larger/custom ad operations |
| Google Ad Manager | Excellent dimensions and custom reporting, but less straightforward if you specifically need arbitrary URL sub-IDs | Yes | CSV/XLSX/API | Larger established publishers |
My pick: AdButler
AdButler looks particularly close to what you're describing. Its reporting can include revenue, payout and eCPM, and reports can be downloaded as CSV. Its Reporting API can also return financials and break data down at the ad-item level. www.adbutler.com
One important distinction: if your sub-ID is literally an arbitrary value passed in the URL (e.g. site=blog1, placement=sidebar, subid=abc123), I'd verify with the vendor that this exact dimension is retained and available in revenue reports. AdButler's documented hierarchy is primarily publisher → zone → campaign → ad item, rather than an explicitly named arbitrary “sub-ID” dimension. www.adbutler.com
AdButler reporting documentation
If you need true arbitrary Sub-ID → revenue
Tell me how you're monetizing the blogs (e.g. display ads, affiliate offers, CPA, native ads, direct campaigns) and an example of the Sub-ID you currently pass, such as:
blog1-sidebar-728x90
I can then identify 3–5 platforms that specifically support Sub-ID → impressions/clicks → revenue → CSV/API, rather than recommending generic ad servers.

Answer 6 of 22, 19th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions no tracked brands
If by sub-ID you mean a tracking value attached to traffic/clicks (e.g. subid, subid1, etc.), the best fit depends on whether you mean affiliate revenue or display-ad revenue.
For affiliate/content blogs
Admitad is one of the clearer fits. Its publisher reporting API explicitly supports reporting by subid, subid1–subid4, with date/site/campaign filters. developers.mitgo.com
For display advertising
Google Ad Manager (GAM) can do very granular reporting using key-values/custom dimensions, including revenue and impression metrics. You can then export reports as CSV/Excel and automate downloads through its API. support.google.com
The important catch: GAM's "sub-ID" isn't a native affiliate-style subid field. You'd generally pass your identifier as a key-value and configure it for reporting. support.google.com
If you want an ad network specifically built around sub-ID reporting
AdTransfer is worth looking at: its publisher interface explicitly lets you group traffic/revenue reports by subid, alongside site, country, browser, OS, etc., and reports publisher earnings. adtransfer.org
My shortlist for your use case:
| Platform | Sub-ID revenue | Export/API | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Admitad | ✅ Native subid/subid1–4 | ✅ API | Affiliate blogs |
| Google Ad Manager | ✅ Via key-values | ✅ CSV/XLS/API | Display ads / programmatic |
| AdTransfer | ✅ Native subid | Likely | Ad monetization with granular traffic tracking |
If you tell me what monetization you're using (affiliate links, Mediavine/Raptive, AdSense/GAM, direct advertisers, etc.) and what you mean by sub-ID (URL parameter like ?subid=site1, individual blog/site, article, traffic source, or affiliate placement), I can narrow this down to 2–3 platforms that actually give you revenue-per-sub-ID exports.

Answer 7 of 22, 18th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions no tracked brands
Yes. If by sub-ID you mean a tracking value you append to traffic/ad URLs (e.g. subid=site1, subid=article42, subid=campaign7), the important distinction is whether the platform actually reports revenue at the sub-ID level, rather than merely letting you pass the parameter.
Platforms worth considering
| Platform | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | Export/API | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| AdMaven | Yes — their publisher API explicitly supports group_by=subid and total_revenue | Yes, API/JSON | Straightforward sub-ID tracking |
| Google Ad Manager | Depends on how you implement the identifier; supports granular key-value/custom-dimension reporting rather than a generic affiliate-style subid | Yes — CSV/XLSX/API | Larger publishers, multiple sites, sophisticated ad ops |
| AdSense | More limited; custom channels can provide granular ad-unit/channel reporting, but it's not as flexible as a true sub-ID revenue system | Yes | Simple AdSense setups |
AdMaven is particularly close to what you're describing: its current API documentation lists subid as a report grouping option alongside revenue and impressions, so you can pull revenue by individual sub-ID programmatically. publishers-help.ad-maven.com
For Google Ad Manager, reporting is considerably more powerful overall, with customizable dimensions/metrics, scheduled reports, and CSV/XLSX exports. support.google.com However, you generally need to design your inventory/key-value structure so the identifier you care about is reportable; it isn't simply an arbitrary affiliate-style sub-ID column.
What I'd choose for niche blogs
If you have several sites and want a spreadsheet like:
Date Site Sub-ID Impressions Revenue
2026-08-15 blog-A homepage 42,381 $31.42
2026-08-15 blog-A article-17 18,294 $14.87
2026-08-15 blog-B homepage 67,112 $52.31
2026-08-15 blog-B article-42 11,903 $9.18
I'd prioritize a platform that exposes sub-ID as an actual reporting dimension + API, rather than trying to reconstruct it from URL/ad-unit data afterward.
If you tell me what kind of monetization you're using (display ads, affiliate offers, native ads, push, etc.) and roughly how many blogs/sub-IDs you have, I can narrow this down to the 3–5 platforms that actually support the exact reporting structure you're after, including which ones have CSV/API exports.

Answer 8 of 22, 17th Aug 2026, gpt-5-6, mentions 5 tracked brands
If by sub-ID you mean tracking each blog/site, article, placement, or affiliate-link variant and seeing revenue/commission per ID, there are several good fits.
My shortlist
| Platform | Sub-ID breakdown | Export | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| wecantrack | Yes — dedicated SubID reports | CSV/data integrations, API, BigQuery, Looker Studio | Multiple niche blogs + multiple affiliate networks |
| Strackr | Granular affiliate reporting | CSV + Excel | Multiple networks, straightforward reporting |
| Lasso | SubID reports + site/page/link comparisons | CSV revenue export | Content publishers wanting site/page-level revenue |
| Refersion | Dedicated SubID report | CSV | If your programs are primarily on Refersion |
| Admitad | SubID1–SubID4 | API/JSON | If you use Admitad extensively |
My first choice for your use case is wecantrack. It consolidates data from 450+ affiliate networks and has dedicated SubID, content, and campaign reporting. Its transaction reports expose the associated SubID values, and it supports exports/integrations beyond just CSV. wecantrack.com
Strackr is another strong option if your main goal is aggregating several affiliate programs and then exporting the underlying data to CSV/Excel. strackr.com
Lasso is particularly interesting for a portfolio of content sites because it supports comparisons across sites, pages and links, plus SubID reporting and CSV revenue exports. getlasso.co
One important distinction: if you're looking for revenue by a specific ID you control in the affiliate URL, rather than merely revenue by website/page, make sure the platform actually preserves that SubID through the affiliate network. That's the key requirement.
If you tell me which affiliate networks/programs you use (Amazon, Awin, CJ, Impact, ShareASale, Rakuten, etc.) and what your sub-ID represents (e.g. site → article → link placement), I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options.

If by sub-ID you mean a tracking value you append to affiliate/ad links and you want revenue broken out by each value, there are a few good options:
| Platform | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | Export/API | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| FlexOffers | ✅ Yes — dedicated Sub ID reports | ✅ CSV/Excel + API | Affiliate blogs |
| Admitad | ✅ Yes — subid, subid1–4 | ✅ API | Granular affiliate tracking |
| Cuelinks | ✅ Filter transactions by sub-ID | ✅ API | Affiliate publishers |
| AdMaven | ✅ Revenue grouped by subid | ✅ API | Display/pop/monetization |
| Google AdSense | ⚠️ Not really arbitrary sub-ID revenue | ✅ Reporting | Traditional display ads |
My first choice for your use case would be FlexOffers if your blogs are primarily affiliate sites. Its publisher reporting specifically includes a Sub ID Report, allowing commissions to be attributed to the sub-source, and its report feed supports CSV/Excel exports and an API. www.flexoffers.compublishers-help.ad-maven.comsupport.google.com
Admitad is particularly attractive if you need multiple levels of tracking. Its reporting API can group results by subid, subid2, subid3, etc., and includes payment/commission fields. developers.mitgo.com
If you're talking about ad monetization rather than affiliate commissions, the answer changes. For example, AdMaven's publisher API explicitly supports grouping revenue reports by subid, along with impressions and revenue. publishers-help.ad-maven.com
One important distinction: Google AdSense isn't designed for arbitrary sub-ID revenue attribution. Its standard reporting supports breakdowns such as site, ad format, and platform, but not a general-purpose affiliate-style sub-ID dimension. support.google.com
If you tell me whether your blogs make money through affiliate links, display ads, or both, I can narrow this down to the 3 best platforms for your exact setup, including which ones let you export site → sub-ID → clicks → conversions → revenue in one report.

My first choice for a few niche blogs would be Impact.com's Trackonomics, particularly if you're pulling affiliate revenue from multiple networks. Its reporting specifically includes Performance by SubID, and reports can be downloaded as CSV, Excel or PDF, or exported through the API. help.impact.com
If your main problem is "I have several affiliate networks and want one consolidated revenue-by-subID report," I'd look hardest at wecantrack. It is specifically designed to consolidate affiliate data and supports SubID reporting plus API/BigQuery/Looker Studio integrations. wecantrack.com
FlexOffers is also worth considering if a lot of your monetization runs through it: its publisher reporting has a dedicated Sub ID Report that associates subtracking IDs with sales and commissions, plus CSV/Excel reporting and an API. www.flexoffers.com
One important distinction: if you're talking about display-ad revenue rather than affiliate revenue, the answer changes. For example, Ads.com explicitly supports SubIDs for traffic tracking but says its official revenue cannot be segmented by SubID. refdocs.ads.com
If you tell me which monetization networks you use (e.g. Amazon, Impact, CJ, Awin, Mediavine/Raptive, AdSense, etc.), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that will actually give you revenue by sub-ID, rather than just clicks/conversions.

If you run several niche blogs and need revenue broken down by individual sub-ID (for example: site → article → placement → keyword → CTA block) plus exportable reports, you’ll want a platform with strong affiliate tracking/reporting rather than just an ad dashboard.
Good options:
| Platform | Best for | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | Export options |
|---|---|---|---|
| impact.com | Affiliate partnerships across many merchants | Strong Sub ID reporting; can break performance down by tracking parameters | CSV, Excel, PDF, API exports help.impact.com |
| Everflow | Publishers with many campaigns/offers | Excellent campaign/source/sub-ID tracking (commonly used by performance marketers) | CSV/API reporting |
| Voluum | High-volume affiliate/content testing | Very granular source IDs, funnels, campaigns, revenue attribution | CSV/API |
| Trackonomics | Content publishers (SEO blogs, commerce content) | Sub-ID reporting tied to commissions and content performance | CSV/PDF downloads help.impact.com |
| Lasso | WordPress niche sites | Tracks affiliate revenue by site/page/link location and supports SubID reports | CSV revenue exports getlasso.co |
| FirstPromoter | SaaS/referral programs | Has downloadable reports including sub-ID reports | CSV/API downloads docs.firstpromoter.com |
For a few niche blogs, I’d usually narrow it like this:
- Mostly Amazon/affiliate content sites: → Lasso or Trackonomics
- Many affiliate networks/merchant programs: → impact.com
- You buy traffic, test landing pages, or run many tracking IDs: → Voluum or Everflow
A setup I see work well for niche-blog operators is:
Blog domain
↓
Article ID / URL
↓
Placement ID (table, CTA, sidebar)
↓
Sub-ID passed into affiliate link
↓
Dashboard report:
Sub-ID → Clicks → Conversions → Revenue → EPC
Before choosing, check that the platform supports passing your own parameters (for example subid=best-widget-article7) and not just reporting its own internal IDs.
If you tell me:
- whether your revenue is mainly Amazon Associates, Mediavine/Raptive ads, SaaS affiliates, or CPA offers, and
- roughly how many blogs/sub-IDs you want to track,
I can narrow this to the best 2–3 choices.

Yes. If by sub-ID you mean a tracking parameter such as subid, subid1, subid2, clickref, etc., there are a few good options—but the best one depends on whether you're talking about affiliate revenue or display-ad revenue.
If you're monetizing affiliate links
Admitad is one of the cleaner fits. Its publisher reporting API supports reports specifically by sub-ID, including multiple sub-ID fields, date ranges, websites and campaigns. developers.mitgo.com
Rakuten Advertising also supports granular sub-publisher reporting, with Sub-Publisher ID/name/URL as report dimensions. The caveat is that its subnetwork-transparency feature is for managed publishers. pubhelp.rakutenadvertising.com
If you mean programmatic/display advertising
This is trickier. A lot of ad platforms let you track sub-IDs but don't expose revenue by sub-ID. For example, Ads.com explicitly says its sub-ID reporting can track traffic/clicks but not revenue performance. refdocs.ads.com
For a multi-site blog portfolio, I'd look for a reporting/BI layer that can ingest the revenue APIs from your ad networks and preserve your own dimensions (site → page/category → placement → sub-ID). Google's Ad Manager, for example, supports downloadable CSV/XLSX reports and API-based report retrieval. developers.google.com
What I'd choose for your use case
If your goal is something like:
blog A → sub-ID "review-pages" → 127 clicks → $43.82 revenue
blog A → sub-ID "comparison-pages" → 89 clicks → $31.17 revenue
I'd prioritize a platform that gives you:
- Revenue + payout by individual sub-ID
- Multiple sub-ID dimensions
- Filtering/grouping by site/blog
- Date-range reporting
- CSV/XLSX export
- API access
- Scheduled reports
- Ability to combine several monetization sources
Trakai is worth looking at if you're operating an affiliate/performance setup: its reporting advertises revenue, payout, profit, EPC and grouping/filtering by arbitrary sub-ID, plus saved and scheduled reports. www.trakai.io
If you tell me which monetization platforms you're currently using (e.g. Amazon Associates, Impact, Awin, Mediavine, Raptive, AdSense/GAM, Ezoic, direct affiliate programs), I can narrow this down to 2–3 platforms that actually support your exact sub-ID → revenue → CSV workflow, rather than giving you generic reporting tools.

If you’re running multiple niche blogs and need revenue broken down by individual sub-ID (site, placement, article, campaign, etc.) plus exports, you’ll want a reporting/attribution platform that treats sub-IDs as first-class dimensions rather than just showing aggregate affiliate revenue.
A few good options:
| Platform | Best for | Sub-ID breakdowns | Export options |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impact.com | Large affiliate programs and networks | Yes — performance reports can break down by Sub ID / Shared ID parameters | CSV, Excel, API exports help.impact.com |
| LinkTrust | Affiliate tracking + CPA campaigns | Yes — dedicated “Sub ID Breakout” reports | Exportable reports help.linktrust.com |
| Tapfiliate | Smaller publishers and SaaS affiliate programs | Yes — SubID and metadata reporting | CSV exports tapfiliate.com |
| TrakAI | Real-time affiliate analytics | Yes — slice by sub-ID, campaign, publisher, geo, device | CSV exports, scheduled reports, API www.trakai.io |
| The Affiliate Platform | Affiliate networks needing flexible reporting | Strong filtering/grouping, pivot-style reports | CSV exports www.theaffiliateplatform.com |
For a portfolio of niche blogs, I’d usually set up tracking like:
blog-domain.com → sub1=siteA
blog-domain.com → sub1=siteB
article pages → sub2=article-slug
placements → sub3=sidebar/table/button
Then your report can answer:
- Which blog generates the most affiliate revenue?
- Which article drives the highest EPC?
- Which CTA placement converts best?
- Which merchant pays best by site?
A few things to check before choosing:
- Does the platform pass sub-IDs through to conversions? (not just clicks)
- Can you export raw conversion-level data?
- Does it support API access or scheduled reports?
- Can you store multiple sub-ID fields? (site → article → placement)
If you mean aggregating revenue from many affiliate networks (Amazon, Impact, CJ, ShareASale, Awin, private programs, etc.) into one dashboard rather than running your own tracking, the best-fit tools are different.

Yes. If by sub-ID you mean a tracking/placement parameter such as subid, sub1, zone_id, or an affiliate click ID, the key distinction is whether you need ad revenue reporting or affiliate revenue reporting.
For niche blogs, I’d shortlist:
| Platform | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | Export/API | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Ad Manager | Strong, if your IDs are represented as dimensions/custom fields | CSV/Excel + API | Display/programmatic ad revenue |
| Google AdSense | Limited compared with GAM; custom channels can provide useful breakdowns | Reports/export | Simpler AdSense setups |
| Affiliate networks with sub-ID reporting | Usually excellent | CSV/API varies | Affiliate revenue by click/sub-ID |
| Publisher reporting aggregators | Depends on integrations and granularity | Usually CSV/API | Multiple monetization sources |
If you're talking about ad monetization, I would lean toward Google Ad Manager. Its reporting supports custom dimensions/metrics and exports, although Google has moved publishers to its new Interactive reports system in 2026. support.google.com
If you're talking about affiliate links, the answer changes considerably: you want a platform that preserves the sub-ID all the way through conversion and exposes revenue → sub-ID → site/page/campaign in its API/export.
If you tell me which monetization sources you use (e.g. Amazon, Impact, CJ, Awin, AdSense/GAM, Mediavine, Raptive, etc.) and what your sub-ID looks like, I can give you a much tighter list of platforms that actually support individual sub-ID revenue + CSV/API export.

If by sub-ID you mean affiliate-link parameters (e.g. subid, sid, click_id) and you want to see revenue by individual article/link/sub-ID and export it, I’d look at affiliate tracking/reporting platforms, not generic blog analytics.
Best fits
- RedTrack — probably the strongest fit if you want granular sub-ID reporting. Its reports can group/filter by sub-parameters such as Sub1–Sub5, and its logs can be exported with the filtered data. It also supports passing conversion revenue/payouts back into the reporting layer. help.redtrack.io
- Google Ad Manager — better if you're talking about display-ad revenue rather than affiliate commissions. It supports custom reporting dimensions/metrics and CSV/Excel exports, although Google's old Reports interface was deprecated in June 2026 in favor of Interactive reports. support.google.com
- AdSense — useful for straightforward site/ad-unit reporting, but I'd choose it over a tracker only if your main concern is Google's own ad revenue rather than aggregating affiliate networks. AdSense custom channels can provide granular ad-performance reporting. developers.google.com
For your use case
If you have something like:
blog → article → affiliate link → sub-ID → commission
and want a spreadsheet like:
| Date | Blog | Article | Sub-ID | Clicks | Conversions | Revenue |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aug 1 | Site A | Best X | article_123 | 842 | 31 | $186.40 |
| Aug 1 | Site A | Best X | button_456 | 391 | 19 | $121.20 |
RedTrack is the closest match. Its reporting specifically supports breaking performance down by the value passed in a sub-parameter, rather than just giving you aggregate site revenue. help.redtrack.iohelp.redtrack.io
If you tell me where the revenue comes from (Amazon Associates, CJ, Impact, Awin, display ads, multiple affiliate networks, etc.), I can narrow this down to the 2–3 platforms that can actually give you revenue by sub-ID and CSV/API export rather than just generic tracking.

Yes. If by sub-ID you mean a tracking value attached to each affiliate link—e.g. one ID per blog, article, placement, or button—the strongest options I found are:
| Platform | Sub-ID breakdown | Export | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| wecantrack | Yes, custom SubID dimensions | CSV/data integrations, API, BigQuery, Looker Studio | Multiple affiliate networks in one dashboard |
| Trackonomics | Dedicated “Performance by SubID” reports | CSV/PDF + email | Multi-site publishers wanting straightforward reporting |
| trakai | Any sub-ID, plus campaign/publisher/geo/device | CSV + API + scheduled reports | Real-time reporting and automation |
| Tapfiliate | SubIDs/metadata | CSV | Simpler affiliate-program tracking |
For your use case, wecantrack would probably be my first choice if you're running several niche blogs and using multiple affiliate networks. It specifically offers SubID reports and can aggregate data across networks, with API/BigQuery/Looker Studio options for further analysis. wecantrack.com
If you primarily want “show me revenue for SubID X, Y, Z and let me download it”, Trackonomics is particularly relevant: its reporting includes a dedicated Performance by SubID report and CSV/PDF downloads. help.impact.com
One important distinction
If you're asking about affiliate revenue, rather than ad revenue (Mediavine/Raptive/AdSense etc.), I'd focus on affiliate attribution platforms. The key is that the underlying network must actually pass your SubID through to the conversion. Different networks call this different things—e.g. sid, clickref, subid, subId, etc. affiliyo.com
If you tell me which affiliate networks you're using (Amazon, Awin, Impact, CJ, ShareASale, Rakuten, etc.), I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 platforms that can aggregate all of them and give you per-blog/per-article revenue exports.

If by sub-ID you mean a tracking parameter that lets you see revenue separately for each blog, campaign, placement, or traffic source, there are a few good options.
- Google Ad Manager — best if you're primarily monetizing the blogs with display/programmatic ads. It supports highly customizable reporting, dimensions/metrics, scheduling, and exports such as CSV/XLSX. support.google.com
- Trakai — more affiliate/performance-marketing oriented. It explicitly supports reporting by any sub-ID, including revenue, payout, profit, EPC, etc., plus saved reports and scheduled delivery. www.trakai.io
- AffTrackers — another affiliate-focused option with reports broken down by campaign, affiliate, site, and sub-ID, with CSV export. afftrackers.com
For a few niche blogs, I'd choose based on your monetization model:
| If you earn mainly from… | I'd look at |
|---|---|
| AdSense / AdX / programmatic display | Google Ad Manager |
| Affiliate links / CPA offers | Trakai |
| Running your own affiliate programs | AffTrackers |
| Multiple ad/affiliate networks that need combining | An aggregation/BI layer |
One important distinction: some ad platforms let you track sub-IDs but don't expose revenue at that level. For example, Ads.com documents sub-ID tracking and API access but specifically says its sub-ID reporting doesn't provide revenue performance. refdocs.ads.com
If you tell me whether your blogs make money from AdSense/AdX, affiliate programs, or both, I can narrow this down to 3–5 platforms that actually give you per-sub-ID revenue + CSV/API export, rather than just click tracking.

If you're monetizing multiple niche blogs and want to know exactly how much each site, page, campaign, or traffic source earns via SubIDs, you should look for platforms that support:
- SubID (or ClickRef/TID) reporting
- Revenue/commission breakdown by SubID
- CSV or Excel exports
- API access (if you later want dashboards)
Here are the strongest options:
| Platform | SubID revenue reporting | CSV export | API | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tapfiliate | ✅ Excellent | ✅ | ✅ | Small-medium affiliate programs |
| impact.com | ✅ Very detailed | ✅ CSV/PDF | ✅ | Large affiliate publishers |
| Trackdesk | ✅ Good | ✅ | ✅ | Growing affiliate businesses |
| AffTrackers | ✅ Excellent | ✅ | Limited | RevShare-heavy niches (casino, finance, etc.) |
| trakai | ✅ Excellent | ✅ | ✅ | High-volume affiliate operations |
1. Tapfiliate (probably the easiest)
If you're managing several blogs and want to tag links like:
subid=travel_blog
subid=tech_blog
subid=best-vpn-page
subid=email-newsletter
Tapfiliate lets you:
- filter reports by SubID
- export CSV
- compare commissions
- drill into conversions
It was built with SubID analysis in mind. tapfiliate.com
2. impact.com
Probably the most powerful reporting available.
Their "Performance by Sub ID" report includes:
- clicks
- actions
- commissions
- conversion rate
- EPC
- downloadable CSV/Excel
- API export
If many of your affiliate programs already run on Impact, you don't need another reporting tool. help.impact.com
3. Trackdesk
Good if you want simple exports.
You can export:
- clicks
- conversions
- payouts
- filtered reports
Useful if you mainly analyze data in Excel or Google Sheets. trackdesk.com
4. AffTrackers
One of the better platforms for RevShare publishers.
Supports reporting by:
- campaign
- site
- affiliate
- SubID
with revenue shown alongside CSV exports. afftrackers.com
5. trakai
More enterprise-oriented.
Features include:
- real-time reporting
- any SubID dimension
- scheduled reports
- CSV exports
- API
Good if you're scaling to many sites and advertisers. www.trakai.io
If you mean affiliate networks instead of tracking platforms
Many major networks already expose SubID-level revenue:
- impact.com — excellent
- Awin — ClickRef reporting
- CJ — SID tracking
- Partnerize — SubID support
- ShareASale — Afftrack parameter
- Rakuten Advertising — Link ID reporting
Most let you export commissions by SubID, although the terminology differs.
For multiple niche blogs
A common setup is:
- Assign each blog its own SubID (e.g.,
techblog,travelblog,petsblog). - Use additional SubIDs for specific pages or campaigns (e.g.,
techblog-vpn-guide,travelblog-email). - Export monthly CSV reports and combine them in Excel, Google Sheets, or a BI tool for a per-site profit and revenue dashboard.
This approach makes it easy to see which blogs and content pieces generate the highest affiliate revenue without creating separate affiliate accounts for each site.
If you're referring to display ad revenue (such as Google AdSense, Mediavine, Raptive, or Ezoic) rather than affiliate revenue, the best reporting options are different.

If you're monetizing multiple niche blogs and you tag every link with a SubID (or equivalent parameter), the reporting platform matters a lot. The best options depend on whether you're an affiliate/publisher or running your own affiliate program.
For a publisher who wants individual SubID revenue, clicks, EPC, and CSV exports, I'd rank them like this:
| Platform | SubID revenue | Exportable reports | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| impact.com | ✅ Excellent (SubID1–5) | CSV, Excel, API | Large affiliate programs |
| Tapfiliate | ✅ Very good | CSV exports | SaaS & direct programs |
| Refersion | ✅ Dedicated SubID reports | CSV exports | Ecommerce brands |
| Trakai | ✅ Flexible SubID dimensions | Scheduled exports | Affiliate networks & agencies |
Here's how they compare:
- impact.com has one of the strongest reporting systems. You can break performance down by SubID or Shared ID, then export reports as CSV, Excel, PDF, or via API. If each blog, article, or button gets its own SubID, you'll see revenue for each individually. help.impact.com
- Tapfiliate supports SubID metadata, lets you filter conversions by source or placement, and exports reports as CSV for spreadsheet analysis. tapfiliate.com
- Refersion includes a dedicated SubID report alongside performance and conversion reports, all exportable as CSV. support.refersion.com
- Trakai is built around flexible reporting. You can group by any SubID, save custom reports, and schedule them to arrive by email automatically. www.trakai.io
If you run several blogs
A simple naming convention makes reporting much easier. For example:
techblog_review-iphonetravelblog_sidebarfinanceblog_email-july
Then you can answer questions like:
- Revenue by blog
- Revenue by article
- Revenue by CTA/button
- EPC by placement
- Monthly CSV exports for bookkeeping
One important caveat
The reporting platform can only show SubID revenue if the affiliate network or merchant supports passing SubIDs. For example:
- Impact →
subid1–subid5 - CJ →
sid - Awin →
clickref - Amazon Associates doesn't use traditional SubIDs; instead, you typically create separate tracking IDs (up to 100) for different sites or campaigns. affiliyo.com
If you tell me which affiliate networks you're using (for example, Impact, CJ, ShareASale, Amazon Associates, Awin, PartnerStack, etc.), I can recommend the reporting setup that gives you the most granular per-blog revenue tracking.

If you mean affiliate/ad monetization sub-IDs (for example, tracking different blogs, pages, campaigns, or traffic sources separately), you’ll want a reporting platform that supports sub-ID tracking, revenue attribution, filtering, and CSV/API exports.
Here are some strong options depending on your setup:
| Platform | Best for | Sub-ID revenue breakdowns | Export options |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trackdesk | Affiliate programs and networks | Yes — tracks sub-IDs, campaigns, partners, sources | CSV exports, API |
| Everflow | Serious affiliate/media buying operations | Yes — deep sub-ID, source, placement, and conversion reporting | CSV, API, dashboards |
| TUNE | Affiliate networks and publishers | Yes — sub-affiliate IDs, tracking parameters | Reports, exports, API |
| Impact.com | Enterprise affiliate partnerships | Yes — tracking parameters and partner-level reporting | Scheduled reports, API |
| Voluum | Paid traffic + affiliate optimization | Yes — granular campaign/source breakdowns | CSV exports, API |
| RedTrack | Affiliate marketers running multiple sources | Yes — tracking IDs, campaigns, funnels | CSV, API |
For a few niche blogs, I’d usually look at:
- Simple affiliate reporting: Trackdesk or TUNE
- Multiple blogs + lots of merchants/networks: Everflow
- You buy traffic or optimize by placement/page: Voluum or RedTrack
A typical setup would be:
blog1.com/?subid=blog1_home
blog1.com/review-page/?subid=blog1_review
blog2.com/?subid=blog2_home
blog3.com/best-tools/?subid=blog3_tools
Then your dashboard can answer:
- Revenue by blog
- Revenue by article/page
- EPC by placement
- Conversion rate by sub-ID
- Merchant performance by traffic source
If you mean ad network revenue (AdSense, Mediavine, Raptive, Ezoic, etc.) rather than affiliate revenue, the best tools are different. For that case, platforms like Looker Studio, Supermetrics, or Funnel.io are usually more relevant.
If you tell me whether your revenue is affiliate commissions, display ads, or both, and roughly how many blogs/URLs you need tracked, I can narrow it down.

If you're monetizing multiple niche blogs and want to know exactly how much each Sub ID (SubID1, SubID2, click ID, placement, page, etc.) earns, the best platforms are those built for affiliate performance tracking rather than general web analytics.
Here's how the main options compare:
| Platform | Sub-ID reporting | Exportable reports | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Voluum | Excellent | CSV, scheduled reports, BI integrations | Serious affiliate publishers |
| RedTrack | Excellent | CSV + custom reports | Bloggers using multiple traffic sources |
| Everflow | Excellent | Highly customizable exports | Networks and advanced affiliates |
| AnyTrack | Good | Exportable dashboards | Bloggers combining SEO + paid ads |
| Keitaro | Excellent | Raw data exports | Power users who want full control |
For niche blog publishers
Voluum
- Tracks revenue by SubID, campaign, page, keyword, device, GEO, and many other dimensions.
- Lets you group reports by custom tracking tokens.
- Supports scheduled exports and integrations with Looker, Tableau, and Power BI. voluum.com
Best if you're driving traffic from:
- SEO
- Native ads
RedTrack
A strong alternative if you're running several blogs.
You can:
- Drill down by SubID
- Save custom report templates
- Export CSV reports
- Compare revenue, EPC, ROI, and conversions across multiple dimensions. site.redtrack.devanytrack.io
Everflow
If your affiliate programs already run on Everflow, its reporting is among the most detailed.
It includes:
- Conversion reports
- Offer reports
- Custom filters
- Revenue by tracking parameters
- Exportable reports for further analysis. helpdesk.everflow.ioanytrack.io
If your affiliate networks already support Sub IDs
Many networks (Impact, CJ, Awin, etc.) allow you to pass values like:
subid=blogA
subid=review-page
subid=sidebar
subid=best-vpn-article
A good tracker will then show reports such as:
| Sub ID | Clicks | Sales | Revenue |
|---|---|---|---|
| blog-tech | 3,145 | 42 | $1,184 |
| blog-travel | 2,008 | 29 | $793 |
| vpn-review | 875 | 19 | $624 |
…and export that directly to CSV or via API.
If your main traffic is organic (SEO)
For someone running several niche blogs, I'd generally recommend:
- RedTrack – great balance of reporting depth and price.
- Voluum – if you want enterprise-level analytics and automation.
- AnyTrack – especially useful if you also want to send conversion data back into Google Ads or Meta while consolidating affiliate reporting. anytrack.io
If you tell me:
- roughly how many blogs you run,
- which affiliate networks you use (e.g. Impact, CJ, Amazon Associates, ShareASale, Everflow),
- and whether you need CSV exports, scheduled email reports, or API access,
I can narrow it down to the platform that best fits your setup and budget.

If you're monetizing several niche blogs and want to know exactly which site, page, or placement generated revenue, you should look for a platform that supports SubIDs (or Click IDs) and lets you export detailed reports.
Here are the strongest options:
| Platform | Sub-ID revenue breakdown | CSV/Excel export | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tapfiliate | ✅ Yes | ✅ CSV | Bloggers, SaaS affiliates |
| Refersion | ✅ Dedicated SubID reports | ✅ Yes | Ecommerce affiliate programs |
| trakai | ✅ Any Sub-ID dimension | ✅ CSV + scheduled reports | Power users |
| The Affiliate Platform (TAP) | ✅ Advanced pivot reports | ✅ CSV | Enterprise affiliate management |
These platforms all support:
- Revenue by SubID
- Conversions
- EPC
- Date filtering
- Exportable CSV reports
- Saved report views (on most platforms) tapfiliate.com
For someone running multiple niche blogs, I'd recommend a simple SubID naming convention such as:
fitness_blogcoffee_bloggardening_blogcoffee_blog_sidebarfitness_blog_review
That lets you drill down to:
- Revenue by blog
- Revenue by article
- Revenue by button or banner
- Revenue by traffic source
If you're asking about affiliate networks rather than standalone tracking platforms, several major networks also expose SubID reporting:
- Impact — supports
subid1throughsubid5 - Awin — supports
clickref - CJ — supports
sid
These values can be included in exported reports so you can attribute revenue back to individual blogs or campaigns. affiliyo.com
If your primary goal is monthly reporting for a portfolio of blogs, the combination I'd choose is:
- Use SubIDs for every blog and major content section.
- Export CSVs monthly.
- Build a simple dashboard in Google Sheets, Excel, or Looker Studio to consolidate earnings across programs.
If you tell me which affiliate networks you're using (for example, Amazon Associates, Impact, CJ, Awin, ShareASale, PartnerStack, etc.), I can recommend the reporting setup that gives you the most granular revenue breakdown with the least manual work.
