Optimize My Site and URLs
Submitted by smile66603 on Sun, 07/13/2008 - 21:46.
I just installed Optimize My Site and did a test on one of my campaigns and I have some confusion.
I have a Yahoo Campaign with about 20 ad groups and about 500 keywords. All of my keywords had custom URLs, but Optimize My Site stripped off all of those URLs, even though the manual said it shouldn't.
Also, when you're getting ready to export, you can only specify one landing page, so it appears it's best to export at the ad group level if every ad group needs to go to a separate landing page.
I'm also not sure what the purpose of the OMS tracking page is. If I'm sending tracking info to CJ with the keyword id and traffic source, what additional information do I need. Can't I just link directly to the landing page?
Are there any experienced OMS users that can offer advice?
Thanks

I think I figured out what was going on with the existing URLs. It appears the program wasn't stripping them out, it was just listing them as the Landing Page parameter. Hopefully others will learn from my mistakes. LOL

A Dedicated Forum Area For OMS
I think a dedicated forum area for OMS would be a big help.
I did the install and all of that and none of the campaigns I uploaded in CSV format show in the campaigns tab even though OMS says it was uploaded successfully.
I have looked at tracking 202 but can't figure out for the life of me how to upload a campaign in CSV format. I only see areas for putting your ads in one at a time. I don't get it.
OMS seems much more intuitive, especially with the excellent instructions manual that is provided.
We just need an area that we can all converge on with our experiences. I'm sure there are many more of us out there trying to wrap our heads around OMS
I'm going to set up up a
I'm going to set up up a dedicated forum on OptimizeMySite.com after I'm finished with Black Ink 2. I'll send out an e-mail to the OMS list when it's live.
Best,
