[BETA] Marketing Tracking
UTM parameters allow you to see exactly where your bookings are coming from. By adding these small snippets of code to the end of your URLs, you can track the success of specific emails, social posts, or ads.
1. Three Parameters
To keep your data clean and organised, we focus on these three primary tags:
|
Parameters |
Description |
Example |
|
utm_source |
The platform or vendor where the traffic originates. |
|
|
utm_medium |
The marketing medium or channel type. |
|
|
utm_campaign |
The specific name of your marketing effort or promotion. |
|
2. How to Build Your URL
A UTM-tagged URL is simply your original link followed by a question mark (?) and your parameters separated by ampersands (&).
The Structure:
https://activites.bookpebble.co.uk/?utm_source=source&utm_medium=medium&utm_campaign=campaign_name
Real-World Example:
If you have a "January Promo" paid ad on facebook, your link would look like this:
https://activites.bookpebble.co.uk/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=paid_ad&utm_campaign=january_promo
3. Best Practices for Better Data
-
Be Consistent: Analytics tools are case-sensitive.
utm_source=Linkedinandutm_source=linkedinwill show up as two different sources. Always use lowercase. -
No Spaces: Use underscores (
_) or hyphens (-) instead of spaces. -
Keep a Log: Maintain a simple spreadsheet of the UTMs you’ve used so your team stays consistent over time.
