Tagging Bing PPC
-
I am trying to tag my bing cpc in GA using the URL builder tool: http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?answer=55578
It is incredibly tedious, and in order to get to the level of adwords, I have to create a unique URL for each keyword! Ahh, please tell me there is a better way!

Do you know if google recognizes bing's query strings: http://advertising.microsoft.com/small-business/product-help/adcenter/topic?query=MOONSHOT_PROC_QueryStrings.htm

John is spot on. You should also learn the concatenate function in excel
-
This is where the adCenter Destkop tool and Excel will be your friend! You should be able to export your whole account, and set it up in Excel to construct your destination URLs using your campaign name, ad group name, and keyword (and any other info you want to add). Then you can re-import this file back into adCenter Desktop and update your account.
If you have questions with specifics, let me know.

How to track in Google Analytics 2 different subdomains (one for website, the other for PPC landing pages)
Hello Mozers! I have a website with organic visits/goals on www.site.com and a few AdWords Campaign landing pages on lp.site.com whose goals are tracked with both adwords conversion monitoring AND analytics (not imported from analytics into Adword). The landing pages of the campaign have nothing to do with the web site (different cms, they don't link each other, totally isolated) and viceversa. Given that, what would it be the best practice to configure Google Analytics to track the website (www.site.com) AND a PPC campagin (lp.site.com)? I have been told to set up different views of the same property, but do I really need that? Please let me know what are you thinking. Thank you very much. DoMiSoL Rossini

FB PPC Conversion Tracking Script
Hi guys, Is there any way to install a FB conversion script for their PPC (in the same way as the shopping directories use)? I know this was possible about 1.5-2 years ago via a feature they have released in Beta at that time, but this seem to no longer be a choice. There is nothing in the FB help, I found no such option in their settings and the FB support does not answer (what;s new here 🙂 ) We can always try alternatives - as Google Analytics or Prosper202 ... but this time we would prefer FB scripts if possible. Thanks in advance T

PPC ad guidelines?
I learned Google PPC years ago and got certified by Google. Back then and for a long time since I know it was best practice to capitalize words in your domain name. I know Google no longer does this and that words in your domain name of your ad are now all lowercase. I hear recommendations and see them practice that adding keywords in a directory are a good way to still get capitalized words in your ad. When I learned PPC, I was told your display URL and your destination URL had to match. Now I'm seeing ads where that is not the case. If I have an ad that takes someone to my homepage of a coupon site, can I have a display URL that says: mysite.com/Coupons Even if the destination URL is just mysite.com ? I'm seeing conflicting things online and it's hard because I don't know what the current guidelines are after this change.
