Totally get you. Having the right tools can really level up your campaigns. I recently came across a solid list on https://aliencpa.com/Affiliate_Tools — it covers trackers, cloakers, spy tools, and even funnel builders. Worth checking out, especially if you're aiming to scale or test across different verticals.

Totally get that — affiliate marketing moves fast, and having the right tools makes a *huge* difference.

I’ve found that most folks who stay ahead use some kind of all-in-one tracking platform (like ThriveTracker or Pretty Links) to manage links, cloak them, and track performance in real time. It helps big time when you’re juggling multiple campaigns.

A lot of people also swear by browser setups with separate profiles or containers to avoid cookie leaks — especially when testing their own affiliate links. And don’t sleep on UTM builder extensions or link rotators; they can save a ton of time and give better data on what’s actually converting.

If you're not already, track everything from clicks to conversions in one place so you can tweak fast. Saves way more money (and headache) than it costs.
