Tracking Keywords Dynamically Using Sub ID's- question

    Someone told me I could dynamically insert the the keyword into the subID of my destination URL in a ppc ad using {Keyword:AlternateText} in my subID.

    Does this work on all three major search engines? Would I simply put my destination url and subID with this tag at the end... like so:

    http://x.azjmp.com/0FQ39?sub=yh{Keyword:alt}

    or should I use the add sub ID function in Azoogle? When I do that, it comes out like this:

    http://x.azjmp.com/0FQ39?sub=yh{Keyword:lt}

    I'm assuming that's wrong. Someone please confirm the right way of doing things before I mess up all my campaigns. Thanks!!

    First one... I'm not sure why you have "yh" there though.

    And this is assuming you're doing a straight redirect to the offer page?

    1. I'm guessing so he knows it's from yahoo rather than google.

    2. Obviously yes, straight redirect.

    The way I do this is by inputting my keywords and their linking urls in Excel, and uploading them in bulk.

    Yeah, I was tired when I wrote all that. yh is just yahoo. It was just an example. I'm talking about sending traffic directly to the offer page. I have more success sending some offers directly to the landing page and I just needed a way to track keywords. I am implementing that now. Thanks!

    Is there a way to stucture this so it works with site-targeted campaigns? Obviously, I'd like to figure out which sites on Google are the ones that are converting. How would I create that URL?

    Thanks!
