  • tracking urls & redirects

    Hello,

    Zoom is skipping all URLS except for the first one. It doesnt matter what the first one is, it always works fine, but all others give the the (Skipping - External site - does not match base URL) error.

    The URLs i am using pass through a tracking site and then to another site, i have put all the URL types in the Base URL box.

    Ive tried lots of different strategies but nothing seems to work.

    p.s. i dont want to follow any links on the page, i am supplying Zoom with a list of url all with INDEX_ONLY.

    Got any ideas?

    Thanks

    If set up correctly there should be no reason why it can't work. Can you give us a specific example of what didn't work. With example URLs and what you have as the base URL.

      Sure,

      Here are 3 urls
      Code:
      http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=8eOA4AKKLdQ&subid=1&offerid=40840.1&type=10&tmpid=977&RD_PARM1=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mondera.com%2Fjewelry%2Fproduct.asp%3Fpartno%3D3004279, INDEX_ONLY
      http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=8eOA4AKKLdQ&subid=1&offerid=40840.1&type=10&tmpid=977&RD_PARM1=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mondera.com%2Fjewelry%2Fproduct.asp%3Fpartno%3D1012438, INDEX_ONLY
      http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=8eOA4AKKLdQ&subid=1&offerid=40840.1&type=10&tmpid=977&RD_PARM1=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mondera.com%2Fjewelry%2Fproduct.asp%3Fpartno%3D1012420, INDEX_ONLY
      Only the first one will work.

      Here are the base URLs
      Code:
      http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/;http://www.mondera.com/
      thanks

        These are terribly long and convoluted URLs that do a double re-direct. So this a very inefficient way to index anything (3 page hits to index 1 page), unless you are trying to do a bit of click fraud. But it still seemed to work OK for me.

        Here is my log,

        Opps. I didn't read your post carefully enough. That was just the 1st start point. Just a minute.....

          I did a 2nd test with two start points and it still seemed to work

            hmm, it still doesnt work for me. What other options have you set that might be different from mine?

            Could you send me the config file so i can try it out?

            thanks
