How to track multiple solo ads

9 replies
I want to buy a few solo ads and send all the traffic to the same page.

What I want to know is how to track each solo ad individually?

For my first one I set up a bit.ly shortlink to track clicks etc.

Is it possible to set up 10 different bit.ly shortlinks on the same url?

Hope to get some help fast.

Thank you,
Sean

    Create website subpages, redirect them to the main page. That way you can use unlimited urls with bitly.

    this is what i do

    you set up a new web form for each solo ad that you buy

    name it the solo ad you have bought

    clone your squeeze page every time you buy a new solo ad and name it something like
    ad1

    then go to somewhere like googl url shortner and use your new cloned squeeze page, get the shortened link and then give that to your solo ad guy so you can track clicks

    and also you can track the opt ins of each individual solo ad and also track the sales using your "ad tracking"

    so you can identify which solo ads are more profitable

      I would only go with separate squeeze pages if you're looking to test the conversion of each of those squeeze pages. If you're using the same sqeeze page but with different traffic sources (different solo ads) I usually just opt for a link tracker such as the Ninja Affiliate link tracker (my personal favorite) or even a free tracker such as Pretty Link.

      There are also several link tracking services out there that you can monitor the traffic of each link from. I prefer to use something where you have direct control over the tracking - ie. something that you host yourself so that you always have your stats and they can't be taken away from you. Some link tracking systems only let you hold the data for so long or the link expires after a certain time.

      I would go with a self-hosted link tracking system such as the above two.

      How do I create website subpages? Never came across this term before

    It's easy with PayPal and many other payment platforms. Just create buy now buttons for each ad and give the offers different names.

    Hey Sean,

    You can also use this awesome tool:

    Tool: URL Builder - Analytics Help

    You can just enter the information of each solo ad seller and it creates a unique trackable link. Then just shrink or cloak that link (but do not use goo.gl shortener)
    and you're good to go

    Create new list and opt-in form in your autoresponder for every solo ad.
    Connect new opt-in form with new squeeze pages, which are copies of your
    original ones, and name it index1, index2..., for example.

    It will look like this:
    Code:
    www.yourdomain.com/index1
    Your main squeeze page stays at
    Code:
    www.yourdomain.com
    That way, all new subscribers go to new list and you will have complete control
    over how many subscribers you get and their performance.

    Hope that helps.
