Noob question:
Let's say I have an Adwords campaign and a landing page. I want to know which keywords are converting, so how do I grab whatever keyword led the user to my LP and pass it to the campaign SubID?
 


Ok, one more question.

If my URL looks like this:
"http://www.domain.com/index.php?SubID=test"

and my affiliate links look like this:
http://www.valtrk.com/URL/track.aspx?AdID=xxxx&AffID=xxxx&SubID=<? print $SubID; ?>

Why, when I right click on the link and view its properties, is the SubID variable not being passed?

probably since you haven't clicked through to the site. I would think when you click through is when your sub-id gets attached not before.

not sure though since I don't track keywords using that method.

So the link looks like Offer is not available when you view properties and it should look like Offer is not available
 
nah it should already have it in the properties. did you use $_GET['SubID'] ?

it doesn't just pull it from the url by itself.
 
prosper 202 a self hosted script will let you track conversions by sub id. If you just want to know what keywords are converting the program is good. you will need to write a script to match sub id's to sales info from your network though but that took me 5 minutes.


as a side not, prosper 202 encrypts your link so you don't pass along the keyword info.
