Here's what I want to accomplish:

I would like to direct PPC traffic to my website landing page then have a link on the landing page going to an affiliate offer and track the cloaked keywords.

PPC Traffic -> LP -> Affiliate Offer

To do this with Prosper 202 I would:

  1. Create a SIMPLE LANDING PAGE directing traffic to mysite.com
  2. Create a LINK that will look something like:
    http://mysite.com/?t202id=1111&t202kw={keyword}
  3. Create an AFFILIATE CAMPAIGN using the affiliate URL.
  4. Use GET LINKS and create a DIRECT LINK to the affiliate offer. Looks like:
    http://mysite.com/tracking202/redirect/dl.php?t202id=1111&t202kw={keyword}
I think this is correct. Do I need the {keyword} on both links to push the keywords through?

How do I use Prosper 202 to see which Keywords are generating the traffic? When I look at ANALYZE I'm not seeing any KEYWORDS being tracked.

Do I have to download a SUBID report from each network daily? Then upload the data? What if the Affiliate Network does not have the option to download SubId data?

Thanks in advance for the help and support.
 


A few things:

- If you're using Wordpress for your LP, use an "advanced" LP (even if just one offer on the page).

- Create the "affiliate campaign" before getting the link. Make sure the affiliate link from the network has the appropriate subid info on the end of it.

- When you "get links" use "advanced" again. {keyword} will go on the end of the link here for Google and MSN.

- Subids - Download whenever you want (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.). If you can't download, call / email your AM. If you still can't download, then manually enter into a spreadsheet that you can upload. You can also place pixels to have subids update automatically.
 
Thanks Compound.

Still struggling for wordpress integration.

Here's the revised to do list in order:

  1. Create AFFILIATE CAMPAIGN (ensure subid is on the end of affiliate link)

    Sample Affiliate Link:
    http://axonmediagroup.go2jump.org/aff_c?offer_id=111&aff_id=222&aff_sub={keyword}

  2. USE ADVANCED LANDING PAGE to create the landing page information.

    Sample Code: <script src="http://xxx.com/tracking202/static/landing.php?lpip=235" type="text/javascript"></script>

    Q: Do I need to place the Inbound Javascript Landing Page Code above in the Footer.PHP file? Exactly as it appears or with modifications?
  3. What part of the Landing Page: Outbound PHP Redirect Code (FOR EACH OFFER) do I need? Where do I place it?

    Sample Code:
    <?php

    // -------------------------------------------------------------------
    //
    // Tracking202 PHP Redirection, created on Wed Jun, 2010
    //
    // This PHP code is to be used for the following setup:
    // Axon xxx on http://xxx.com/y-y-y/
    //
    // -------------------------------------------------------------------

    $tracking202outbound = 'http://xxx.com/tracking202/redirect/off.php?acip=6114&pci='.$_COOKIE['tracking202pci'];

    header('location: '.$tracking202outbound);

    ?>


    Do I need all of the above code? How and where do I put it?
  4. Use GET LINKS - ADVANCED LANDING PAGE SETUP - to "Get the Destination URL to be used in your Text Ads".

    Sample Destination URL:
    http://xxx.com/y-y-y/?t202id=5248&t202kw={keyword}


Are the {keywords} everywhere they should and should not be?

I've read Nickycakes Blog Post for Prosper 202 and WP but still need a little more information.

It looks like it should be easy with a little more clarification.
 
Getting close.

1. Don't need to append {keyword} to affiliate link

2. Put the LP code at the bottom of your page or post. Paste "as is". Nickycakes takes a different approach, but this is what has worked for me.

3. Use all of the code. Copy it to Notepad. Save as "YourOfferName.php". Can call the file whatever you want. Save as "all files" (not txt).
Then, upload this file to a directory on your server. For example, 'http://mysite.com/recommends/'
Go back to your LP, and create a link to 'http://mysite.com/recommends/YourOfferName.php'.

4. Link looks fine.

5. Turn on traffic. Keep testing. Make $.
