GoHighlevel and RedTrack
Intro
GoHighLevel (aka HighLevel/ High Level/ GHL) positions itself as the go-to solution for agencies. It is an all-in-one tech stack for agencies or marketers, eliminating the need for other tools.
Integration
Setup in RedTrack
1. Add a custom tracking domain
1. Add a CNAME record pointing to your RedTrack default domain in your domain registrar.
2. On the left menu go to Tools → Domains → Create new domain.
3. The default domain is stated right on the top and looks like smth.rdtk.io.
4. Add the integrated domain to your RedTrack account and activate the Free SSL option.
2. Set up conversion tracking
Tools → Conversion tracking → Conversion type → add the events you want to track → Save.
The names will remain the same and be sent to the traffic channel exactly as you added them in RedTrack.
3. Add the offer/website you are promoting
This is the target destination link where you plan to run the traffic: it can be an affiliate offer, a direct link to your website, or the shop.
1. Act depending on your account type:
1. Add the offer source: New from template/New from scratch → find the affiliate network you work with/add your custom name → Save.
2. Add the offer link: Offers → New → choose the offer source from the list, add the offer URL → save the changes.
For example: &affsub={clickid} where {clickid} is RedTrack parameter
More info on offer source and offer in RT can be found here.
1. Go to Brands → New → Add your brand (it is the name of your shop or your website).
2. On the same page, add the purchase data parameters – Name/Description is what you will see in reports – Roles define their use with CAPI.
3. Go to Websites → New → Add your website URL (this is your e-commerce shop/website link).
4. Follow the suggested steps to generate the scripts. You will need it later for your e-commerce platform.
2. When adding the brand/offer source go to Additional parameters section → add {r} to Macro/Token fields and assign the following roles:
- First Name
- Last Name
- Phone
4. Create a paid traffic campaign
– Affiliates should add the campaign for the unattributed (organic) traffic per this guide.
To create a campaign for the paid traffic follow these simple steps:
- Add the Traffic channel (API integrated traffic channels/Non-API integrated traffic channels). Most of them have a preset template in RedTrack.
- Launch a campaign for the paid traffic channel. Your website/shop will be the main link added to the traffic channel. Be guided by this article for Advertisers / this one for Affiliates.
