Default Tracking my ads on PoF

Hey guys! I've started doing plenty of fish ads, but how to I track the ads, since they don't have keywords, how am I supposed to know which one converted?

I've got my P202 link, that is something like:

xxxxxxx.com/tracking202/redirect/dl.php?t202id=788&t202kw=

I read that you have to put {subid} at the end of it, put do i put in the word *subid* or do i put in the word I want to track??? Like {pof1}??

For every new campaign on PoF, I have to write a new subid right? So I would have *pof1* *pof2* *pof3* etc?

Say I'm running the same offer, but want to spilt the ages up or something, does that mean I have to have LOADS of different subids? again, do i put in subid, or do I put in *pof1*

Also, I'm using Maxbounty. My P202 postback URL isn't recording leads, even though I can see them in Maxbounty?

My postback url looks like this...

xxxxxxxx.com/tracking202/static/gpb.php?amount=&subid=

Again, is that right? I just want to get this tracking thing down before I move on, as it's confusing the hell out of me.

Thanks!

This might not be the response you want to hear, but I suspect you'll have better luck posting your question in the Prosper 202 help forum:

I think they have a tag which returns creative id! That way you can track your creative conversions.

Also, you can use their internal tracking system which is not 100% accurate but it is decent and helps you track your conversions. It is better to use the image pixel to track your conversions.

If your CPA network is EWA then just use the same image pixel URL but with HTTPS at the beginning instead of HTTP! EWA only accept secure postback URL's!

This is how I do it:

&t202kw={creativeid:}{age:}{state:}

This is awesome because POF transfers these variables to your Network. The creativeid is kind of a pain in the ass to back-track, but the {age:} tag is GOLD, IMO.

There is probably a better way to track, but then again, I think Prosper sucks. Definitely implement POF's internal conversion tracking also. I've found all of POF's stats 100% accurate. And their bulk-uploader is the BEST, IMO. It's lightning fast and there are never any glitches.

The simplest and easiest way for you to track would be to use the straight affiliate link with the &s1= variable.

Name each of your ads > ad1, ad2, ad3, ad4, respectively

Then on each ad for the URL use ad1, ad2, or ad3 corresponding to your ad.

So, it would look like this:

Creative name: Ad1
Title: Your Title
Description: Your Ad
Image File: Your Image
URL: http://youraffiliatelink.comxyz123&s1=ad1

Make sense?
