Conversion Tracking with Keywords

Can you embed the keywords into the URL?

Hey all,

A basic question, but I couldn't find anything in search.

I'm trying to more properly track which keywords of mine are converting into sales. I know with Google Adwords you can use {KeyWord} in the text to expand to the keywords used. But they are space-separated.

I want to pass the keywords comma-separated to my url, eg. www.mysite.com/affiliate123?keywords=term1,term2,term3

Any way to do this?

Cheers,
-V

you can use {keyword} in the url of your ad too. though, i it just passes the adgroup name rather than the exact search terms. You can get the exact terms on the referrer url from your logs (q=search%20terms).

I've been scouring round the internet a bit and found that you can do something like: www.CJ-URL?sid={ifsearch:Search-SID-Code}{ifcontent:Content-SID-Code}

Which at least separates the Searches from the Content.

Anyone used this?

Or know of a good resource which lists all the {adword-macros}?
