Why Use Binom for Tracking?

Binom is one of the leading tracking platforms for affiliates and media buyers. Its key advantage lies in full data ownership.

Unlike most cloud-based trackers where your data is stored on third-party servers, Binom allows you to run the tracker on your own server. This gives you better security and full control over your data.

When combined with HilltopAds, one of the best direct traffic advertising networks, Binom becomes a powerful tool for analyzing traffic quality, optimizing campaigns, and improving ROI.
