Overview
Tithely sought to expand its reach by leveraging a referral-based affiliate system that rewards users for bringing in new clients. To achieve this, Buildonline developed Tithely Affiliates, a platform that enables churches and individuals to promote Tithely services through custom referral campaigns.
The Challenge
Before implementing Tithely Affiliates, the company faced several obstacles in managing and tracking referral campaigns:
- No streamlined way to create and manage affiliate links.
- Inconsistent tracking of referral data across multiple platforms.
- Challenges in ensuring accurate metadata rendering on social media, particularly on Facebook.
- The need for a user-friendly interface for affiliates to monitor campaign performance.
The Solution
Buildonline worked closely with Tithely to design and implement a fully functional affiliate platform with the following core features:
- Custom Campaign Management: Users can create, track, and manage multiple campaigns with unique referral links.
- Seamless Social Media Integration: Optimized metadata handling ensures that links display correctly across platforms.
- Advanced Tracking & Analytics: Affiliates can monitor link clicks, conversions, and performance metrics in real time.
- Resource Library: A dedicated repository of text and visual assets simplifies content sharing.
Key Technical Achievements
- Metadata Optimization for Social Media: Implemented a sophisticated method for handling the Sec-Fetch-Mode header, ensuring Facebook updates metadata dynamically.
- Laravel-Based Backend: Utilized a layered architecture to enable modular expansion and maintainability.
- Nuxt.js Frontend: Built a decoupled, responsive UI that offers a seamless user experience.
