Update: The quality of the embedded video is terrible and I apologize. Here is the direct link to the YouTube video, which should be a little clearer: Prosper202 Tutorial – Adding Custom Traffic Sources

My first post of December has been longer than expected in the making. What was supposed to be a quick post at the beginning of the month, quickly dragged to a few days due to unforeseen server issues with my ISP, as well has having connectivity issues with Comcast.

My Internet came screeching to a halt on Friday and so I decided that while I waited for Comcast to fix the modem issues, I’d do a complete overhaul on my home LAN, getting it up to par with 21st Century technology.

Long story short…I’m back up and can finally get back to posting. So here ya are: A complete icon pack for Prosper202, drag and drop import and you’re done!

Download the included zip from the Winzip icon above and watch the video below if you wanna see me walk you through it how to set it all up.

If you’re a more experienced Prosper202 user, you’ve probably used it by now with traffic sources other than PPC. I know I have.

I’ve ran campaigns specific to Craiglist, Ebay, YouTube, and Myspace. Though you may not be able to track at the keyword level from each traffic source, you can still see your clicks coming in with the spy view and see any conversions that might occur.

But you’ll quickly notice, that any traffic source that wasn’t included by default in the Prosper202 download, won’t have an associated icon. Instead, you’ll get an ugly question mark in it’s place.

Here’s how to fix that and is quite easy. Let’s do YouTube for example. Read the rest of this entry
