Exoclick conversion tracking and SMASH revenue

Hi all,

Does anyone currently run campaigns on SMASH with the traffic source being Exoclick? How can you link the Exoclick conversion tracking tag with SMASH revenue's pixel/postback url feature? I'm using one of SMASH's landing pages and would like to see which sites from Exoclick are converting.

Looking forward to your answers.

Thanks :)

STEP 1: Go to the Hasoffers Platform, in the offer details page.

Add a subid to your tracking link, by clicking on the “Add Subid” option in the “GENERATE TRACKING” section.

Add the following string as the subid: {conversions_tracking}. Then click “Update”.

Your tracking link should look like this: http://go.trackingdomain.com/aff_c?offer_id=1&aff_id=1234&aff_sub={conversions_tracking}

Hasoffers allows up to 5 different sub ids which enables you to use other sub ids for your other tracking needs. This tracking link is the one you will have to use in your advertising campaign.



STEP 2: Go to ExoClick’s advertiser dashboard and click on the “Conversion Tracking” tab.

You must have at least one conversion goal generated. If you don’t, simply create one. Once a goal has been generated, simply grab the value found in the “goal= “.



STEP 3: Going back to the offer specific page on HasOffers, scroll down to the “conversion pixels/urls” section.

From the “Type” drop down menu select – “Postback URL”. In the code area place this URL:http://main.exoclick.com/tag.php?goal=[GOAL_ID]&tag={aff_sub}

The [GOAL_ID] is the value we grabbed in STEP 2 from the conversion tracking tab on Exoclick’s dashboard.
 
You can link directly the source and the affiliate network as suggested @lrs1995 but in order to be more agile and get a bit more analytics data from this traffic souce (they pass about 10 different tokens), you should probably use a tracking software.

For your info:
- TrackingDesk (which i represent) is integrated via the hasoffers api so your offers are automatically imported in your account as well as the conversions (and revenues)
- exoclick tokens are integrated in trackingdesk so all their custom variables are automatically added to your tracking links
