Post subject: Help - Autoresponder tracking?
|
|
Hi,
Is it possible for us to track email conversions for autoresponder services like aweber/getresponse with prosper202? I would really like to track this data using this script.
Below is a typical Aweber form, as you can see, there's 'meta_adtracking' where we can substitude with our own value, but unfortunately, prosper doesn't create subids until you click on a redirect link so I don't really know how to do it. Hope someone can shed some light...
<center><form method="post" action="http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_web_form_id" value="XXXXXXXXX">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_split_id" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="unit" value="defaultXXXXXXX">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="thankyou.php" id="redirect_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_redirect_onlist" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_adtracking" value="[Value Here]">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_message" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_required" value="name,from">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_forward_vars" value="0">
<table>
<tr><td colspan=2><center></center></td></tr>
<tr><td>Name:</td><td><input type="text" name="name" value="Enter Name!" size="20"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Email:</td><td><input type="text" name="from" value="Enter Email!" size="20"></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan=2><center></center></td></tr>
<tr><td align="center" colspan="2"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
</center>

There is a way but it'd be kind of complicated, you'd have to fire off the PIXEL when the complete the submission form, and then forward them to the autoresponder form post action url with all the variables set.
what if you place the pixel code in there?
You could potentially do this, on what page do you fire the javascript code?

Sorry, I'm totally lost, not sure how to do this. Let's say I have the form on my landing page, when someone optins, it will redirect them to a thank you page, so I put my Pixel on the thank you page, is that right? And then?

You mean putting this <img height="1" width="1" border="0" style="display: none;" src="http://www.domain.com/tracking202/static/gpx.php"/> in the form?

I'm placing prosper's javascript tracking code on top of the landing page.
Thanks

Actually that'd work perfect, you can tell aweber to redirect them back to a page after they complete the submission right? then just place the pixel on that page.

Right, if I do that, I'll see the optin data from prosper, I understand that part. But what I want is to be able to look at my AWeber account and know exactly which keyword that brought me the subscriber.
So, if I have the ID in the meta_tracking value, I can just look at the subscriber's name, id and then refer back to prosper and I'll know exactly what he typed in the search engines to find my site.

Ah, I get what you mean, but that wouldn't work because aweber only allow alphanumeric characters as the tracking value. No spaces or symbols like +-%$# etc are accepted.
To make things even complicated, I actually have affiliate links on the landing page, meaning, when a user arrives on the page, they can either click on the affiliate links or optin to my list.
If I have nothing else but an optin form, I could probably set it as an affiliate link and redirect to a page where I can ECHO the subid but not in this case....running out of ideas :(

You may need a custom solution sounds like (disclaimer: I didn't read through the whole history of the post)

I'm afraid so, I was using xtremeconversions for my ppc+email tracking previously. I shifted to prosper recently and I was hoping prosper can do the same so I can track everything in one place.
Hope you guys can come up with a feature for this in the future.

Can you send me the URL that you send visitors to? we can custom code something for you, I just need to better understand when how visitors come in, and then where the form is in the process

Was there a solution set up for this? PaulB, if the thank you page is your own, you can always put the PPC search engine's tracking code on the thank you page. It wouldn't interact with Prosper but it would tell you which keywords were working for you.

if you want to track conversion if someone records a email submit, it's pretty simple.
PPC >> landing page (fire the JS code) >> if the complete the email form, have the auto-responder on the confirmation take them to a page >> and then fire the prosper202 conversion tracking pixel.
it has now tracked the conversion
(this is the only thing it can do for now, and track a conversion for one thing, at one session at a time)

Sorry I didn't see this earlier.
I know I can track which keyword converted into an optin easily using Adwords conversion tracking.
But what I want is to be able to look at my Aweber account and say Hey, this guy bought something from me and he found my site through this 'acai berry scam' keyword.

Is there a way to grab the keyword that affiliates are using to promote using ppc?
If they ARE using Prosper and WITHOUT.

optin is http://doubleyourforexprofits.com
process.php is http://doubleyourforexprofits.com/process.php
thank you page is http://doubleyourforexprofits.com/thankyou.html
optin page has the T202 script for the keyword capture from PPV(pay per view) networks
process page captures the keyword that converted the optin and sends to the thank you page
this is the problem
when process.php sends the viewer to the thank you page
i get this on the browser
http://doubleyourforexprofits.com/thankyou.html&kw=
and this gets me an error on the page
how can i get around this?
thank you

<?php
header( 'Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT' );
header( 'Last-Modified: ' . gmdate( 'D, d M Y H:i:s' ) . ' GMT' );
header( 'Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate' );
header( 'Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0', false );
header( 'Pragma: no-cache' );
$kw = $_REQUEST['keyword'];
$cookie_life = time() + 31536000;
$path = '/';
$hostname = '.yourfatlossfast.com';
setcookie ("kw", "$kw", $cookie_life, $path, $hostname);
setcookie ("aid", "$aid", $cookie_life, $path, $hostname);
setcookie ("tid", "$tid", $cookie_life, $path, $hostname);
setcookie ("cid", "$cid", $cookie_life, $path, $hostname);
$url = "http://doubleyourforexprofits.com/thankyou.html&kw=$kw";
header("Refresh: 0; URL=$url");
echo " "; // NN4 requires that we output something...exit();
?>

Your first URL key should always start with a question mark. If you only have one, then it must be a question mark.
You are using an ampersand.
ie:
WRONG: $url = "http://doubleyourforexprofits.com/thankyou.html&kw=$kw";
RIGHT: $url = "http://doubleyourforexprofits.com/thankyou.html?kw=$kw";

Quick question... Where do we get the JS code from? When I look in tracking202 and go through the normal process of creating a campaign, it asks for an affiliate URL and all that fun stuff. But we're just tracking opt ins so what do I do?
Any clarification is appreciated :-).
Thanks!
