FAQ

Questions advertisers ask

Will this slow down my landing page?

No. With parallel tracking Google sends visitors straight to your final URL and calls the tracker in the background. Our tracker answers with a single redirect in milliseconds and does all logging afterwards.

Is the tracking template allowed by Google Ads?

The template follows Google's guidelines for third-party click tracking services: the redirection_url parameter shows the exact next hop, redirects are server-side over HTTPS, and nothing is added to your landing-page URL.

Does PPC Shield block visitors from my site?

No. Every visitor is redirected the same way. PPC Shield only scores clicks and builds an IP-exclusion list that you (or the automatic sync) apply inside Google Ads.

Where do I paste the template?

Google Ads → Campaigns → Settings → Campaign URL options → Tracking template. Put the UTM parameters in the Final URL suffix.

How are conversions tracked?

Keep auto-tagging on so the GCLID reaches your landing page, then call your postback URL when an order completes. Export the offline-conversions file and upload it in Google Ads.
