Automation has come to help all of us to be more efficient in our daily work. Bots are actually made to help us, to do the hard task and make our work easier. The integration between AdMaven and LandingTrack will definitely make a difference in your Marketing Campaigns.

Who is AdMaven?

With over 10 years of experience, we see ourselves here at AdMaven as avant-garde, innovative, digital display advertising network.
On the one hand, we strive to improve CTR and conversion rates for our advertisers.
On the other hand, we work hard on maximizing the yields for our publishers.
We are able to do so by combining great expertise and experience together with high motivation and aspiration for constant improvement.
At AdMaven, we place our partnerships and relationships at the top of our pyramid and that constitutes the foundation of our work.

STEP 1 — Adding AdMaven as Traffic Source

Go to Traffic Source, Menu side and click on > +Connect new Source;from the list of options select > Integrated DPSd

From the list displayed look for AdMaven. In order to connect with them, you will need to provide only two fields.

1- User: Your AdMaven login

2- Password: Your AdMaven Password

Just add your AdMaven User and password to connect with.

After click on the button > Connect we have an extra step — Check API, click on it.

Click on Check API to sync both Accounts.

The slide out will show to you your credentials, check them and if all looks good click on orange button> Check API

Green Check¡means we are fully Integrated with AdMaven and we can start automating all your Campaigns but, We will suggest you add some more steps like — URL Tokens and Outgoing Postback

Now that we are synchronized with AdMaven let’s have a look on > Edit button.

The following Parameters and Tokens will be provided by default for each AdMaven URL :

  • source={subid}.{pubfeed}— Subid & Pubfeed (those are the ones need it in order to track the siteid)
  • bid={bid} — The cost of the visit (how much you pay for a click)
  • cmp={campaign} — Campaign ID, as registered in their system
  • keyword={keyword} — Keyword matched on campaign

So if you need to add some extra Tokens to get more details from your visits you can have a look here:

1.1— Adding some Extra Tokens:

I am sure you are familiar with AdMaven Tokens but it is always good to show /explain them here for you:

  1. {query} — publisher search keyword
  2. {banner} — ad id
  3. {remfeed} — remote feed id
  4. {ga} — required for Google Analytics statistics
  5. {aa} — required for Event Tracking
  6. {conversion} — conversion tracking
  7. {referrer} — referrer url (urlencoded)
  8. {referrer_domain} — referrer domain
  9. {country} — two-letter visitor’s country
  10. {state} — visitor’s state
  11. {city} — visitor’s city

Back into your LandingTrack Account Click on >Traffic Sources Tab>button Edit for AdMaven> Params section:

Adding Extra Tokens to your URL’s, do not forget to save after adding them.

1.2— Postback (Optional):

We are missing only one thing to finish the full integration with AdMaven, adding their postback :

http://xml.realtime-bid.com,pop.rtb-passthrough.com,xml.ad-maven.com/conversion?c={conversion}&count={count}&value={value}

Remember to replace their Tokens for the LandingTrack ones:

. {conversion} ={{PID}}

. {value} = {{PAYOUT}}

. {count}= 1 (you can leave that value by default)

You can copy the following one and set it up on LandingTrack: http://xml.realtime-bid.com,pop.rtb-passthrough.com,xml.ad-maven.com/conversion?c={{PID}}&count=1&value={{PAYOUT}}
