Conversion tracking - content network...

    Hi there,

    I am an AdWords advertiser with good experience on the search network, however I am just in the beginning stages of using the content network. The biggest question I have is around conversion tracking.... Let's say I want to promote a product as an affiliate, and Google conversion tracking is unavailable to me. If this was the case on the search network, I would leverage a subid parameter to grab either the keyword or adgroup sending me conversions. However, for a keyword-targeted content network campaign, I am most interested in seeing which domains/URL's are bringing me conversions (or even even more generally, which domains/URL's are bringing me clicks). Assuming I can pass a subid parameter to the advertiser (TID, SID, etc), is there a way I can see this info without using Google conversion tracking?

    If not, can I simply use Google Analytics to see my referrers? i.e, which pages are sending me clicks? Or will the referrer always be xxxx.googlesyndication.com because the clicks will all be coming from content network impressions?

    Thanks for any help you can offer,

    - Dave

    the content network is not keyword driven.

    Add your subid to the ad
