Clear identifiers improve tracking, facilitate better communication among team members, and support accurate analysis of campaign performance.

GSE Newsletter
Specify the platform or channel that generated the link, such as “mailchimp,” “facebook,” or “newsletter.” The campaign source tells us where the traffic is coming from. For example, if the campaign is promoted through email, the source might be “mailchimp.” Understanding the source of traffic helps in analyzing the effectiveness of different platforms and adjusting future campaigns accordingly to maximize engagement and improve results. These instructions align with Google’s definition of “Campaign Source,” which identifies the referrer (like a search engine, newsletter name, or other source).
campaign medium
Specify how the campaign is delivered, such as “email,” “paid,” or “social,” to track the type of marketing medium used. This information helps differentiate between various marketing channels, such as organic versus paid search or email. For example, if you are running a social media ad, you would use “paid” or “social” as the campaign medium. Tracking the medium is essential for evaluating which marketing channels are most effective and optimizing resource allocation to achieve the best results. This aligns with Google’s definition of “Campaign Medium” for categorizing the type of channel used.
campaign ID
Use an ID code for tracking purposes to differentiate between similar campaigns. For example, “DL25_email_2024” can be used to uniquely identify this iteration of the campaign. Using specific IDs helps distinguish between different campaign iterations, ensures accurate reporting, and improves decision-making for future campaigns. This aligns with Google’s recommendation to use unique parameters to accurately identify campaigns.
campaign term
Use this field to enter specific keywords or paid advertising identifiers that represent elements like targeted keywords. For example, you might enter “PBL_training” to identify a keyword used in paid search ads. Including specific keywords helps optimize search engine marketing and track the effectiveness of advertising terms, ultimately improving targeting and return on investment (ROI). This field aligns with Google’s “Campaign Term” to track paid search keywords or specific promotional terms.
campaign content
Use this field to differentiate content within the campaign. For example, “variant_A” or “control_version” may be used to represent different versions of the same ad for A/B testing. Differentiating content is valuable for understanding which version performs better and provides insight into audience preferences, helping improve the effectiveness of your campaigns. This is in line with Google’s guidance on “Campaign Content,” which can be used to test different versions of ads or links.
