PPV: Tracking202 Questions

I setup a PPV campaign in Tracking202. I am running traffic from LI. MaxBounty is the CPA network for this offer. I can see the stats growing in tracking202 as it gets views.

Here's my setup:
- 3 landing pages
- all LPs go to the same offer
- traffic from LI
- MAxbounty CPA network

However, when set it up I was unsure about a couple of things.

1) Whenever the page is displayed in t202 it shows up as a click in t202. Is this is the way it works when you setup a PPV campaign?

2) T202 videos are now missing. This is now a blank page http://tracking202.com/videos and I have not been able to find the tracking202 videos. I did find some stuff from 2008-09 on vemio. What is the best source of setup info now that this is gone.

3) I went through several threads here but I have a setup question remaining. When I setup the campaign in t202 I put &s1=[[subid]] at the end of the link. Is this right?

4) In the landing pages, I have a link to the maxbounty offer. I left the subid off the end of the URL. IS this right? Will having s1=[[subid]] in the t202 campaign section pass that data on to maxbounty tracking.

5) Maxbounty is not seeing any subid info when someone clicks through to the offer. In their tracking data it says "Sub-ID Not Set". How do I fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Everything is correctly setup, once your subid recorded in the tracker when you pass the subid through the URL, grab the concept first, everything else is secondary, backup your database first, do few dummy campaign, once you get the aha, restore back your original backup.

Two Questions:

1) On Maxbounty I see that people have clicked through from the landing page to the offer. But in tracking202 the stats do not show any click through. What could be going on here?

Got this quote from the 40 Day Guide:
Your tracking platform will assign a subID to each visitor that clicks through to the offer. Then, from your affiliate network, you can get a report that shows conversions with their subIDs. This way you're able to identify which targets, landing pages, or offers generated each conversion.

Does this mean that when I get a conversion I will not be able to tell which keyword/url it cam from?


2) In tracking202 I see that the {keyword} parameter is picking up, which is the url of the site that the traffic comes from. However a good bit of them just comes through as {keyword}. What causes this?

Thanks,

Stephen

I was able to figure out why many of the keywords where showing up as {keyword} in t202 reports. When using LI if you have selected to have the keywords passed then do not put the &t202kw={keyword}.
