I'm trying to sort my link tracking out don't quite understand it.

Lets say I buy 2 solo ad's Each solo ad gets its own tracking link

Each solo ad is going to the same page (squeeze page)

I want to track conversions for each solo ad separately, but if I add the conversion tracking code to the thank-you/oto page then that's just going to tell me my total optins, not which solo ad gave me the optins.

So how do I get around this problem? same thing for for tracking sales.

      This can be easily done with one tracking link, and using multiple ad variance.
      I use bevomedia and it tracks multiple ads is going to the same page (squeeze page)
      They also have great support.

    If you use Goolgle Analytics you can easily track the conversion.

    What are all these answers...

    @OP, it's so simple. Use the GA URL Builder and build a unique url for each of your solo ad.

    Example:

    http://www.yourwebsite.com?utm_sourc...aign=SoloAdOne
    http://www.yourwebsite.com?utm_sourc...aign=SoloAdTwo

    The only difference is the utm_campaign. After that you can track in GA which solo ads is bringing you the most conversions. Use the same conversion pixel on your thank you page for both solo ads.

      I'd rather use some service to do this, I get so confused in the GA page's.

      Currently trying prosper202, I'm able to track in the incoming traffic however can't work out how to track the conversions.

      any other suggestions for tracking software? Not a monthly subscription but a one time fee or free options other than GA?
