 * Hi,
 * If you sell your courses through WooCommerce plugin, then you can use Affiliates
   plugin with [Affiliates WooCommerce integration](http://wordpress.org/plugins/affiliates-woocommerce-light/).
 * Your affiliates can visit a dedicated page on your site to find their affiliate
   links, URLs, statistics and many more. This page called _Affiliates Area_ page
   can be generated with a button click through _Affiliates > Settings, under Pages
   tab_ and also can be enriched if you choose to add the shortcodes the plugin 
   supports. A full list of the shortcodes can be found [here](http://docs.itthinx.com/document/affiliates/shortcodes/).
 * Your affiliates only have to promote their affiliate links and whenever a customer
   makes a purchase after following an affiliate link, the affiliate will get a 
   commission. In that case a notification will be sent to the affiliate and to 
   the administrator.
 * The site administrator can view traffic sources through the dedicated report 
   page under _Affiliates > Traffic_ which shows the source and destination URIs.
   More information can be found in the documentation about [Traffic](http://docs.itthinx.com/document/affiliates/affiliate-program-management/reports/).
   If you prefer to show the source and destination URIs to your affiliates as well
   then you should have a look at the premium versions, [Affiliates Pro](https://www.itthinx.com/shop/affiliates-pro/)
   and [Affiliates Enterprise](https://www.itthinx.com/shop/affiliates-enterprise/).
 * Kind regards,
    George
