Can you insert {keyword} TWICE in a url on google/bing?

[Sonny Forelli]

on bing/adwords can this be done?

IE

Welcome To landingpage.comkw={keyword}&adtxt=awesome&utm_keyword={keyword}&ctr=fuckinballing


I realize it's probably a stupid thing to do- however I don't want to bother changing my Frankenstein tracking system as I was about to if I can just do this and they'll simply insert it twice.

Thanks

It should work - Test it out and see what it does. Even if you just set up a dummy campaign bidding on a phrase nobody would actually search for (in order to test), testing first hand is always best. Google should have no issue, and MSN shouldn't either, but that system is buggy as all hell.

thanks, just launched a campaign so we'll see what happens. Will be extremely easy if it does!

Why not just edit the code? There's no reason why it won't accept it twice, but if you edit the variables you only need to include it once.

$kw = $_GET['kw'];
$utm_keyword = $_GET['kw'];

b/c it seems a lot easier no to bother fucking with prosper and google analytics javascript if the SE's will gladly just append it wherever I define

(appears to be working!)

Ah, I see. I wasn't meaning to sound like a twat.
