UTM tags are labels added to your destination address so tools like Google Analytics can attribute the visit. LinkVault adds them for you.

Step by step

  1. Create or edit a link and open the campaign fields.
  2. Source — where it is posted: instagram, newsletter, flyer.
  3. Medium — the kind of traffic: social, email, print.
  4. Campaign — the thing you are running: july-sale, launch.
  5. Save. Anyone following the link arrives with those tags attached.

Tips

  • Pick a convention and stick to it. "Instagram" and "instagram" are two different sources in most reporting tools.
  • Campaign tags are included from the Starter plan.
