General Campaign Management

  1. When a user clicks on an AppZilo advertisement, we will automatically add the following referral parameters:
    • Source - AppZilo
    • Medium - your ad format (mobile, desktop)
    • Name - your campaign name
  2. You can then track your campaign performance using third party softwares such as Google Analytics. To do that:
    1. Link your Android app in Google Play to Google Analytics
    2. Your campaign report can then be found in Google Analytics > Acquisition > Google Play > Referral Flow

Custom Tracking URL

Some app analytic services allow you to track advanced metrics such as installs and open rates via a custom URL. To do that:
  1. Generate a custom URL from services such as AppsFlyer or Tapstream
  2. In AppZilo Create Advertisement Step 1 > Choose "Add custom redirect URL" > Put the custom URL in the new field
