Is this the right POFPro / CAKE Setup? (6)
Hi guys - I think I'm overthinking this, but have never used POFPRo, only
1. Global Postback on the network*
http://mydomain.com/p/tracking/track...nt=&subid=#s2#
Question - do I need to put anything after amount? and does the rest look correct?
2. Offer URL in POFPro*
http://offerurl.com/?a=xxxxx&c=xxxxx&s1=xxxx&s2={subid:}
Questions; Is S1 correct? I didn't use a dynamic token, just a static "campaign id" that means something to me.
3. ClickThrough Campaign URL*
http://mydomain.com/p/tracking/landing-page.php?ppid=xxxxxxx&adid={creativeid:}&gender={g ender:}&state={state:}&age={age:}
Questions: Is this right? I'm a bit confused on this one because there is no S1 or S2 that would be communicating with the offer or the postback, but this is what POFPro automatically generates - is this right? Please help, thanks!
4. Landing Pages - URLs are the URLs, no tracking input here - I don't have any dynamic text on my page. And then I just input the LP code from POFPro in the CTA spot
Thank you!
Phew, remembering my POF tokens takes me back a bit!
But that all looks correct to me. You don't need an S-variable on your campaign URL because the S-variables are related to Cake, the affiliate network system, and the ad network never communicates with them specifically.
If you find tracking confusing, have a read of this - it should help demystify everything - http://stmforum.com/forum/showthread...light=tracking
If you're in doubt, or have trouble, I'd recommend reaching out to POFPro's support to help - they should be able to get you on the right track.

You shouldn't need the payout amount there, no, provided you've set it up in POFpro.
