Create UTM links for A/B testing two landing pages:
URL A: https://example.com/landing-v1
URL B: https://example.com/landing-v2
Campaign: Homepage redesign test
Channel: Google Ads

VARIANT A (Control):
https://example.com/landing-v1?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=2025-03-homepage-test&utm_content=control-v1

VARIANT B (Treatment):
https://example.com/landing-v2?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=2025-03-homepage-test&utm_content=treatment-v2

TRACKING NOTE:
Compare conversion rates in Google Analytics:
Acquisition → Traffic Acquisition → Filter by utm_content

Use ValueTrack parameters for dynamic insertion:
- {keyword} - Search keyword
- {matchtype} - Match type (e, p, b)
- {device} - Device (m, t, c)
- {adposition} - Ad position

Example:
?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=brand&utm_term={keyword}&utm_content={adposition}

Use LinkedIn macros:
- {{CAMPAIGN_NAME}}
- {{CREATIVE_NAME}}
- {{CAMPAIGN_GROUP_NAME}}

Note: LinkedIn auto-appends some tracking; combine carefully.

Use URL parameters in ad setup:
- {{ad.name}}
- {{adset.name}}
- {{campaign.name}}

Example:
?utm_source=meta&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign={{campaign.name}}&utm_content={{ad.name}}

HubSpot auto-recognizes UTM parameters.
Ensure consistency with HubSpot campaign naming.

Best practice:
- Create HubSpot campaign first
- Use exact campaign name in utm_campaign
- Tag all assets (emails, pages, ads) with same campaign

Newsletter:
?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign={date}-{topic}&utm_content={position}

Drip Sequence:
?utm_source=hubspot&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign={sequence-name}&utm_content=email-{number}

Transactional:
?utm_source=transactional&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=order-confirmation

Organic Post:
?utm_source={platform}-organic&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign={date}-{topic}

Paid Social:
?utm_source={platform}&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign={date}-{campaign}&utm_content={creative-name}

Blog Post:
?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign={post-slug}
