URL tagging

Tagging Reddit links

UTM parameters for Reddit, the click id OrcLink reads, and the channel the click lands in.

Where the parameters go

The ad's destination URL.

Parameters

Build it for one landing page with the URL builder (Dashboard > URL builder): it refuses a value that looks like an email address, a phone number, a person's name or a merge tag for one, and sends nothing you type to OrcLink.

utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=paid_social&utm_campaign=<launch_week>

Click id

rdt_cid: Reddit adds rdt_cid to ad clicks. OrcLink reads it.

Channel in OrcLink reports

Reddit Paid. Your own channel rules (Settings > Channel rules) run before the built-in ones.

Notes

  • Type the campaign name yourself: no Reddit macro is listed here until it is checked.

Keep personal data out of links

A landing URL is seen by every script on the page and can be logged by browsers and servers on the way. Never put an email address, a phone number or a name in a parameter, and never a merge tag that inserts one.
