Using 202 with Google

Back on March 21st, I wrote a blog post regarding Google's New Rule regarding destination URLs before it was even implemented. Apparently not many people was reading this blog back then and the issue still comes up today. I constantly get questions regarding this OR I read about it somewhere else. If you haven't read the original post, please do so now.

Just to clarify, Prosper202 and Tracking DOES work with Adwords. Per the terms and conditions, your DISPLAY URL and LANDING PAGE URL must match. This does NOT affect the destination URL or path in which it takes to get there. If your DISPLAY URL is www.yourdomain.com or www.offerpage.com and your destination URL is www.tracking202.com or www.prosper202.com, this does NOT matter because it redirects over to www.yourdomain.com or www.offerpage.com making this your final LANDING PAGE URL. Only the beginning URL and ending URL matters. How it gets to this final page does not.

It would be a different story if your display URL is www.yourdomain.com and you have www.prosper202.com and it ends up at www.prosper202.com. That is when the issue comes in, but of course that isn't the case. I hope this clarifies the issue with anyone using Prosper202 and Tracking202 as I have noticed there are several misconceptions. If you need to, please quote the original post as those were words directly quoted from Google.

    Maybe you should repost this on DP or the warrior forum because I don't think those people who "aren't getting it" are reading the blog ;)

    Hi B2B,

    It's okay, I am hoping that eventually everyone will catch wind of the blog, all we do is try to stay on topic with affiliate marketing related material.
