Googleanalytics / Wordpress tracking question

2 replies
Hello experienced marketers,

I am new into online marketing, have been cumulating as much knowledge as I could for past 2 months, started doing test campaigns on different traffic sources etc. Got my feet wet and now trying to optimize.

I have a technical question regarding tracking in googleanalytics and optimizepress.

Thing is, currently, when I want to check how my landing page performs on different traffic sources, I need to clone that page and prepare 2 new links for it - one that I paste in network interface (trafficjunky, exoclick, etc), and second one, that I paste everywhere on my landing page (in images, title, all objects on the page).

In other words, i create 2 links (in linkbuilder) for each new network/landing page combination I am testing.

Because of that, I can track exactly what campaign from which network gives me visitors, clicks etc. However, it is pretty time consuming when you want to test many networks.

My question is : is it possible to simplify this proccess and track it without having to create new (cloned) landing page and relinking every object on the page?

Well, I hope I presented my problem clear enough for You guys being able to help me (english isn't my native language, so I apologize in advance if it looks like gibberish lol).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kindest regards,
Entreri

    Hi entrery, Best wishes on your new adventure.

    You can do this with a single page on your website using google analytics url parameters.
    They provide certain url parameters (of the form utm_source={something}&utm_campaign={some campaign}) to tack which traffic surces and campaigns bring you the traffic.

    You could easily build your url with these tracking parameters using this tool:

    Now promote the different url you build with this tool for different campaigns.
    Happy tracking!

    Hi
    Google analytics can be added by wordpress. Wordpress websites can be easily ranked up.
