    Question Tracker URL for web campaign

    Hi,
    Trying to create a tracker URl for a website advertising campaign. When I create a Tracker URL it has this at the end:
    track=c63a6b46-2434-f25a-b605-44b86ef2cd8b&identifier={MESSAGE_ID}

    So, the link obviously doesn't work becuase of the {MESSAGE_ID} tag. How do I change that so I can link my banner ads to this campaign?

    Thanks for the help!

    SugarCRM ROCKS!

    Hello Holsom,

    Sugar currently does not support tracking banner URLs for web campaigns. It is in the progress!!!! Look out for the update.
    Thanks.

    Deepali,
    Is it possible to track landing pages? In otherwords can Sugar track hits to a page in a campaign?

    Hi holsum, yes, a Tracker URL is really just a reference to a counter that ultimately leads to a landing page:

    Email -> Tracker -> Landing page

    The Tracker itself counts the accesses made to the ultimate landing page. There can be any number of such tracker URLs/landing pages in a given email marketing campaign segment. Thus is an email peice had embedded URL links to "See the demo now", "Learn more now" and "Buy now", you could track who visited each link and when.

    Hope this helps,

    Hi techex, thanks for the lead. Interesting stuff. We'll take a look at it initially for SugarExchange. Then, maybe, we can integrate it into base product.
