14. Wedding Campaign
We will track the activity of users that are on
the wedding landing page with this wedding
campaign by implementing custom URL
builders in Google Analytics.
Essentially, the URL builder helps us by adding
parameters that the company will use in email
campaigns and others in the future. A custom
campaign would consist of a campaign that is
not using Adwords autotagging features.
When a customer clicks on a custom link, the
parameter is sent to the analytics account so
you can identify the most common URLs.

15. Wedding Campaign
We can advertise Ladera through:
● Adword campaign
● Paid Facebook ads
● Sponsored Pinterest boards
To implement we will need to create 3
different URLs for each by filling out
● Wedding page URL
● Campaign Source
● Campaign Medium
● Campaign Term
● Campaign Content
● Campaign Name
