1. Track a campaign on Meta Ads (Facebook / Instagram)

Goal: Understand how a paid campaign on Meta performs compared to other channels.
  • Where the link lives: In your Meta Ads (Facebook or Instagram) as the ad destination URL.
  • What you learn in Litlyx:
    • How many visits and conversions this specific campaign generates.
    • How it compares to Google Ads, email, or organic social.
Recommended UTMs:
  • utm_source=meta
  • utm_medium=cpc
  • utm_campaign=summer_launch_2026
  • utm_content=image_blue_cta (or any creative identifier)
Example URL:
https://yourwebsite.com/?utm_source=meta&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=summer_launch_2026&utm_content=image_blue_cta
Use this URL as the final destination in your Meta ad. Litlyx will attribute traffic and results to this campaign.
Goal: Measure how much traffic and how many signups come from your profile link.
  • Where the link lives: In your Instagram or TikTok bio (or a link-in-bio tool).
  • What you learn in Litlyx:
    • How effective your profile link is at driving traffic.
    • How it performs over time as you change content or followers grow.
Recommended UTMs:
  • utm_source=instagram (or tiktok)
  • utm_medium=profile
  • utm_campaign=link_in_bio
Example URL:
https://yourwebsite.com/?utm_source=instagram&utm_medium=profile&utm_campaign=link_in_bio
You can also create separate campaigns like link_in_bio_q1_2026 to track performance over different periods.

3. Newsletter “Product Update” campaign

Goal: Track how many people visit and convert from your email newsletter.
  • Where the link lives: In the body of your newsletter email.
  • What you learn in Litlyx:
    • How much traffic comes from newsletters vs other email types.
    • Which specific product updates drive signups or usage.
Recommended UTMs:
  • utm_source=newsletter
  • utm_medium=email
  • utm_campaign=product_update_april_2026
  • utm_content=primary_cta_button
Example URL:
https://yourwebsite.com/changelog?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=product_update_april_2026&utm_content=primary_cta_button
You can create variants such as utm_content=text_link to compare button vs text link performance.

How to adapt these examples

To make these scenarios work for you:
  • Keep naming consistent: reuse email, cpc, social, referral, etc.
  • Encode the channel and intent:
    • utm_source → the platform (Meta, Reddit, newsletter, partner name).
    • utm_medium → the type of traffic (cpc, email, profile, community, referral).
    • utm_campaign → the specific initiative (launch, sale, update, partner program).
    • utm_content → optional, to distinguish creatives, placements, or sub‑sources.
  • Test each link before launching:
    • Click it yourself.
    • Confirm the page loads correctly.
    • Check in Litlyx that visits show up with the right UTM values.
Once these are in place, your Litlyx dashboards will give you a clear view of which real‑world actions and campaigns actually move the needle.
