Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is difference between Landing Page table first and second levels?
First Level
Pages are grouped by the URLs, not including variables,
Consider the URL http://myexample.live/?cc=U494Lf
The variables are everything from the question mark so ?cc=U494Lf
Meaning the URL without variables is http://myexample.live/
Second Level
The second level of the table subgroups using the full URLs (which includes query data)
In the above example that would be: http://myexample.live/?cc=U494Lf
We do this for several reasons.
- It is good to understand how often a particular LP is seen with an advert (First level) as this gives an indication of which are the best-performing pages.
- It is good to see the full URLs as they can provide marketing secrets such including useful tracking data.
-
What is the difference between the advert full details popup and advert full details page?
Very little in terms of content.
They both contain exactly the same information, however, the popout is an overlay and the page is an actual page with its own URL.
This means you can keep multiple pages open in your browser tab for quick access during a session.
