It really is a necessity these days, how am I supposed to know where everything is coming from and how to work harder at one source of traffic? I know where my heavy traffic comes from, but when I can't see where people are clicking through it sucks and makes my job difficult
flashbang was right on the money with his explaination. Both with parsing the logs and clustered db's

Providing the referring urls just for sales would be a HUGE task for us.

We do offer other ways to track sales. Either mulitple campaigns or inserting up to a 64 chracter alpha numeric string after the link code and I am always prepared to send someone a spreadsheet as ofetn as they would like with their referring urls in it.
