How to Track Your Ads Using Custom URLs

For you to track your Ads, first you should create your unique NJIDs (Custom URL), then, use this URL as your final Ad URL, so MyDataNinja can track the users coming from this Ad. You can use one Custom URL for only Per ONE UNIQUE Ad. If you use it on multiple ones, it’ll be hard for the system to determine the exact end of incoming traffic. You can also use NJID parameter in parameters section of AD on META and Google, instead of using full url in Final URLs.

MyDataNinja Custom URL Features

After you successfully create your Custom URL, you will see it on the front page. You will see features like:

• Network
• Created at
• ID
• Name
• Tracking URL
• Short URL
• Ad name
• ADset name
• Campaign
• Action button

Also, you will see green and red buttons on some of them, this indicates if the URL is linked to your Ad, meaning your Ad is getting tracked using the Custom URL that you’ve created. Also, there is a copy link button as well. (Shown in the picture below)

When an Ad is attached to a URL, its performance is tracked. If there is no Ad attached, the performance is based on organic data. When attached, the Ad name and the set will be shown; otherwise, these fields will be blank. If the Ad is attached to a Custom URL, data will be shown in the reporting module. On the other hand, if Google or Meta Ad is not attached to a custom URL, the data will be shown in an organic tab, located in the reporting module. (shown in the picture below).

Attaching Custom URL to AD, AD Group and Campaign is automatic. Once MyDataNinja syncs data with Networks, it will look for NJIDs used in Ads and connect Custom URL(Unique NJID) to AD it found it was used. (Thats reason, we ask to use Unique Custom URL/NJID per AD).

Regarding Organic URLs, this feature will help you to track any link and any source to understand its performance. Many businesses willing to track sms links and its performance, sharing links in different places and track their performance. with Custom URLs feature, you can create as many NJIDs you want and track any of their performance even without using them in Google and META ads. So, forget about tracking just clicks and impressions with some URL shorter plugins, using MyDataNinja, you can track any URL perfromance, sales, revenue and profit.
