Campaign URL Builder

Welcome to the Campaign URL Builder

Create trackable URLs with UTM parameters to measure the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns. This tool generates URLs that work seamlessly with Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, and other web analytics platforms to provide detailed insights into your campaign performance.

What are UTM Parameters?

UTM (Urchin Tracking Module) parameters are tags added to URLs that help analytics tools identify the source, medium, and campaign name of website traffic. When someone clicks a URL with UTM parameters, the analytics platform captures this information and attributes the visit to the specific campaign.

UTM Parameter Types

utm_source: Identifies the source of traffic (e.g., google, facebook, newsletter)
utm_medium: Identifies the marketing medium (e.g., cpc, email, social)
utm_campaign: Identifies the specific campaign (e.g., spring_sale, product_launch)
utm_id: Optional campaign ID for advanced tracking
utm_term: Identifies paid search keywords
utm_content: Differentiates similar content or links within the same campaign

Frequently Asked Questions

What are UTM parameters used for?

UTM parameters are tags added to a URL that tell analytics tools the source, medium, and campaign behind a visit, so you can measure which marketing efforts drive traffic and conversions.

Which UTM parameters can I add?

You can set utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign, plus the optional utm_id, utm_term, and utm_content for more granular tracking.

Is my URL data sent to a server?

No. The tracking URL is assembled entirely in your browser, so the links and parameters you build are never uploaded anywhere.

Will these URLs work with Google Analytics?

Yes. The generated links use the standard UTM format recognized by Google Analytics, GA4, Adobe Analytics, and most other analytics platforms.

How should I format my UTM values?

Use lowercase letters and replace spaces with underscores or hyphens, and keep naming consistent across campaigns to avoid duplicate or fragmented reports.
