What Is A Campaign URL Builder?
The EcoSend Campaign URL Builder is a tool that allows you to customise your links so that they can track traffic sources to your website more effectively.
How links are customised is through UTM codes.
UTM codes are parameters added to the end of a URL. Marketers use UTMs to help them figure out where traffic is coming from so that they can best understand their content performance. This includes the best drivers for traffic so that marketers can hone in on this platform or campaign type.
Our Campaign URL Builder will generate these codes automatically for you based on the options you select.
In the EcoSend URL Campaign Builder, you can paste in any campaign URL to generate UTM codes.
The UTM codes identify the:
Campaign name - i.e. ‘summer sale’
Traffic source - i.e. Google, social media platforms or email marketing campaigns
Campaign medium - i.e. is the content a social post, article, banner or a CPC campaign etc
All of this data can be tracked within your website analytics software, such as Google Analytics or GoSquared Analytics.
Why Use UTM Tracking?
The best marketers can specifically measure how they are hitting their goals.
For example, knowing that a LinkedIn post is what’s driving traffic to the company website, rather than just seeing that the website is getting traffic from LinkedIn.
After all, the whole of LinkedIn or any platform is very broad. Unless you understand the specific campaigns and mediums that are driving traffic, it’s difficult to assess the overall campaign performance. Plus, know how to best reach your audience.
Likewise, if you’re running a marketing campaign via several mediums such as via email, video ads, Instagram and Facebook, UTM codes help understand which of these is the most successful for your overall campaign.
In short, UTM codes make URL campaign tracking possible. The ability to track your campaign performance through the URL itself offers invaluable insights.
