4-step checklist
Everything you need to launch tracking
Work through the steps in sequence. Each one builds on the previous so your reporting stays accurate and your PPC platforms stay synced with ClickReport.
Most teams complete setup in under 30 minutes.
- 01
Step 1
Name your campaign
Create a Campaign (or Group) for the landing pages you plan to monitor. Give it a descriptive name that reflects the initiative it supports.
We recommend matching the name used in Google Ads to avoid confusion. Need multiple initiatives? Click the “Add Campaign” button on the My Campaigns page to create as many as you need.
- 02
Step 2
Choose the pages you want to monitor
Add the URLs for every landing page that belongs in the campaign. Track a single page or manage a collection—ClickReport keeps everything organized under the campaign you created.
As soon as a page is added, it becomes eligible for monitoring, reporting, and fraud detection in real time.

Step 3
Install the unique tracking code
Every landing page receives its own tracking script. Installing these lightweight scripts powers ClickReport analytics and automated Google Ads protections.
Where can I find my tracking codes?
Sign in and open My Campaigns. Click the landing page URL to reveal its menu, then choose “Get Tracking Code Script”. A unique script is generated in seconds.
Where do I install the script?
Paste the script just before the closing
</body>tag. Placing it here isolates the script from other components and prevents conflicts.Remember: each landing page has its own unique tracking code. Install every script individually for accurate reporting and automated protections. - 04
Step 4
Amend your PPC ad links
Update the destination URL of each pay-per-click advertisement to include the ClickReport tag you generated in Step 3.
- Log in to your Google Ads account.
- Select the campaign you are monitoring from the Ad Groups tab.
- Edit the ad, locate the destination URL, and append your tracking parameter—for example
?crtag=google1.
Note: Tags can include up to 12 characters using A–Z, 0–9, hyphen (-), or underscore (_). Avoid other special characters or spaces.
Example: If your destination URL is www.MySite.com and you choose the tag Google, update it to www.MySite.com?crtag=Google.
