I have a campaign where I am I'm directly linking to the sales page of the merchant and can't get conversion code on there. Thus, I'm tracking sales by subid so I can weed out the underperforming keywords.
I found some hidden gold and want to start automating this as much as possible but am having trouble finding a quick way to track sales.
Currently I download my adwords report (just using G to start), sort the list by clicks, find the subid in the custom url for each sale in my affiliate report, and add my commission amount in a new column to the right. Easy enough...
What happens the next time I run a report? I could just copy the whole column of sales info over, but if I ever add or remove a keyword from my adwords campaign, the numbers won't match up.
It wouldn't matter much to copy the info over by hand at the beginning, but this is building pretty fast and I want to automate as much as possible.
Any ideas? If I'm making this way too hard, plz let me know of an easier method to track sales over time by subid using a direct link to the advertiser page (no conversion codes allowed)
