POF Tracking

Professor Chaos · 02-10-2011, 02:51 AM

Hey Warriors,

Wanted to know if I can pass the age token into my my tracking202 link to find the exact age of the person clicking to my offer..

For example.. If I have a POF campaign that targets males 18-24, I want to know the exact age of the people who are clicking on the ad..

I know you can target the age {age} in the ad as well as location and gender.. But just need to track the age of the clicker..

If anyone knows, how do I set it up?

Thanks!

I've never used POF for my campaigns so don't know if there is an actual token that can be passed back - can't say I've heard of one but I'm sure someone will correct that if there is.

But for the same thing on Facebook, depending on the campaign, I setup a P202 link manually so that the age range gets passed back in either the keyword or one of the s1, s2 etc tags. Once I find a range of say 5 years that is converting, I break it down to individual years. Not pretty but it works.

You can put this code {age:} in your affiliate links subid and it will show the age of the person clicking your ad.

Just a suggestion, if that {age:} token works as suggested above, do not put it in your subid - this will get passed back to your aff network. put it in your keyword or "s" fields, or pass it to a custom php script that can strip it first

Thanks..

I'm not a affiliate.. I have my own product and not dealing with any aff networks at the moment..

Could I still use the code?

One other question.. should I use {age:} or {age:18+} ?

when creating the ads, {age:18+} is what I am using to target people 18-25, so I do not know if I have to use the same token for my link..

Can you show an example of this? I'm having trouble tracking FB/PoF campaigns...
