  • 12. + Types of Analytics URL Tagging Other Uses for URL Tagging & Additional Tactics Other Uses: 1 Any type of banner advertising, email marketing, etc. can utilize URL tagging. 2 When it comes time to create the utm_source= section of your URL, be specific. Email Blast 03/04? or Yahoo! Banner Ads (or whatever display ad network you use) the more specific you are, the easier your reporting will be in Analytics. 3 When it comes time to create the utm_medium= section of your URL, choose a naming convention that youre comfortable with because youll need to stick with it. Email or Display_Ads are general names that you will need to repeat each time you launch a new campaign. This way you can look at reports for ALL email blasts or ALL display ad campaigns.
  • 13. + Types of Analytics URL Tagging Ad Groups or Ad Text Names?By inserting the ad text name, you can view site activity in Analytics at yet anotherlevel of granularity. See how different ads with different calls-to-action result in userbehavior on your website.Employ a Search Query Filter!1. This tactic has been touted as an AdWords-only solution. The truth is (*gasp*) that it works for Yahoo! and Microsoft campaigns as well! Once set up properly, you will see your keywords shown as this in Google Analytics reports: keyword, (search query)2. Why is this so important? Well, the Google AdWords Search Query Report is great, but it doesnt show you ALL of the search queries. And neither Yahoo! or Microsoft have any sort of search query reporting available. So, when you combine the power of tagging your PPC destination URLs with this search query filter, you will have at your fingertips a very powerful set of data!3. The uses for knowing search queries are endless, but some of the highlights are: understanding user intent, finding new keywords to add into your accounts and most importantly finding new negative keywords to weed out irrelevant traffic!
