See details about supported macros within Reddit Ads here.

Implementation

As there is no tracking template within Reddit Ads, URL tagging can be setup at Ad-Level on the destination URL.

  • Navigate to Ad Creation, and select your campaign
  • Open the Ad Group and select 'Edit'
  • Tracking can then be applied to the end of the 'Destination URL'

A final URL example may look something like

https://www.example.com/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=paid&utm_campaign={{CAMPAIGN_NAME}}&campaign_id={{CAMPAIGN_ID}}&adgroup_id={{ADGROUP_ID}}&ad_id={{AD_ID}}

Testing & Validation

Before launch:

  • Click your ad preview
    • Confirm URL parameters populate correctly
