How do we add the searched keyword to the URL? Is there are an equivalent of {Keyword} that Google Adwords employs?

I know you can enable tracking URLs with Yahoo Overture, but was wondering if there was a simple code we could ammend to the URLs.

Thanks.

in your log files there is a referal. almost all referals from serps and their search network have their keyword in the referral. If your good, you would create a mini program to fetch all the refer links for your yahoo ads and set them up on a page in your admin section so you can click on them and see how people are getting to your site. its fun and addicting to do so watch out

Thanks hellraiser.

Is there are an equivalent of {Keyword} that Google Adwords employs? I have to ask here because Yahoo staff don't have the foggiest idea what I am talking about.

There are several tags you can insert:

{ovkey} gives you the keyword
{ovraw} gives you the actual search query
{ovmtc:E:B:C} gives you the match type. In this example if:
exact then E
broad then B
content then C

Cheers,
