TheOptimizer has a direct integration with Ads.com (formerly known as Bodis), meaning that you can connect your accounts in a few simple steps and benefit from our platform\u2019s automatic revenue data update & campaign automation rules.<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udca1\"NOTE: If you are using a tracker like ClickFlare to track the revenue from Ads.com, and have already connected ClickFlare to TheOptimizer, then you do not need to also connect Ads.com. TheOptimizer will pull revenue and conversion data from your tracker (ClickFlare).<\/p>\n

Step 1:<\/strong>\u00a0On\u00a0Account Wizard<\/strong>, select one (or multiple) BigoAds ad accounts to connect to Ads.com and click on \u201cNext<\/strong>\u201c.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Step 2:<\/strong>\u00a0Now, you need to connect your Ads.com account. Click on \u201cAdd new<\/strong>\u201d and select Ads.com from the drop-down list that appears. You will be asked to fill in some information about your account to proceed.<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udca1\"NOTE:<\/strong>\u00a0Select an easily recognizable account nickname, and place your account username and password here. You need to contact your Ads.com account manager for the\u00a0Secret Key<\/strong>\u00a0that will finalize the connection. After you have filled in all the required information, click\u00a0Save<\/strong>\u00a0to proceed to the final step in TheOptimizer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Step 3:<\/strong> Now, it\u2019s time to connect your selected BigoAds accounts to Ads.com. For this step, you simply need to specify which Ads.com subids you are using to pass traffic source macros back to Ads.com. A possible configuration is shown below:\"\"<\/p>\n

Step 4:<\/strong>\u00a0Always remember to update the current and future campaign links with the following tracking code (based on the example above):<\/p>\n

subid1=__CAMPAIGN_ID__&subid2=__AID__&subid3=__CID__<\/p>\n

When to use custom tracking?<\/h2>\n

If some of your Ads.com subids are not available, you can enable our Custom Tracking option and pass all required traffic source macros under one subid. Here is an example:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the above example, we are passing all traffic sources macros under subid1. The tracking string you need to add to your current and future campaign links in this case is:<\/p>\n
