Here's how I did it with one of my previous campaigns. You have a directory with all your LP's in it, then you have the following script as "index.php":

Code:

<?php
$lps = array(
"lp1.php",
"lp2.php",
"lp3.php",
'nolp.php'
);

include_once($lps[array_rand($lps)]);  
?>

now array_rand() isn't necessarily going to do everything evenly, but it's as close as you're gonna get without writing to the DB (kind of a pain in the ass) or a txt file (slooooow and resource intensive) to keep track of what the last LP that was served. It worked out to almost exactly even for all LPs for me after a few days running.

The "nolp.php" would be just a file that redirects straight to the offer; that would be your split test between one or more LPs and DL.

Now, to get the tracking link for your ads, you'll go to the "Get LP code" link under the setup tab on p202. Select simple landing page, and take everything after the "?" and just tack it on to the end of the directory where you have your LPs and index.php.. the one that randomizes the LPs.

Your URL should look something like this: http://yourtrackingdomain.com/lp-dir...xxx&t202kw=xxx

That was probably confusing as hell. PM me if you need more help
