AWeber - Tracking different sources with 1 AWeber form.

2 replies
When you create a form for your AWeber list you can add an ad tracking code. Good so far.

What I want to do is to be able to use 1 form for multiple campaigns. Actually what I don't want to do is have to create a unique landing page and AWeber form for each campaign.

Is there a way to handle this? Maybe pass some information or set a variable, etc.

I'm thinking something like:

From an e-mail - joespromo.htm?adtrack=email
My AWeber list Ad Tracking value would be 'e-mail'.

From Craigslist - joespromo.htm?adtrack=craigslist
My AWeber list Ad Tracking value would be 'craigslist'.

From my sig - joespromo.htm?adtrack=warriorforum
My AWeber list Ad Tracking value would be 'warriorforum'.


Thanks for the help.

    Here's what I would do if I were you:

    1) Add the link format that you mentioned, by using variables in the URL.
    2) Use PHP "GET" command at the top of your page to grab the adtrack variable. This will mean the variable is available to you now, to be called upon.

    3) Use the instructions for hidden variables in Aweber forms here:
    How Do I Add a Hidden Field to My Web Form? :: AWeber Knowledge Base

    4) Find the part that says <input type="hidden" name="custom FIELDNAME" value="VALUE" />

    And you'll replace it with something like inside of the quotes for VALUE:

    <?php echo $adtrack ?>

    Disclaimer - I AM NOT A CODER and the instructions are correct at a high level, but my formatting is probably wrong.

      Thanks Chris. I'll check that out. It actually kind-of makes sense. I may ask for some help from the Website Design forum.
