Well I'm assuming almost every PPC marketer can agree that Testing and Tracking are two of the most important aspects of PPC advertising. However, being unable to track leads to the inability to test. Which inevitability leads to not getting anything done.
So! basically I'm at a stand still. I've tried to do some research on how to go about tracking leads and which keywords convert but all of the information I find revolves around paying $150.00+ a month, which of course I am not willing to spend until I see some kind of decent converting campaign.
Now I can either make a campaign and hope it converts and then spend the $150.00+ to buy keyword tracking software. Or, if someone could point me in the right direction of some kind of free keyword tracking software I could prevent this major risk.
I know some merchants are willing to put a tracking pixel on their thank you page but so far the couple I've contacted haven't replied and I'd rather not have to wait to start promoting these products.
I did a search on the forums and I came up with a post which talks about Tracking202 and Prospect202. They both appear free however, some of the tutorials I've read discuss things I don't quite understand on the affiliates ID part. Is there some tutorial I could get a link to explaining all the tracking information? Such as the differences between SubIDs... and how to set up all that stuff?
Thanks
