Inuvo RSOC and PRISM,revenue matched to each click

RSOC and PRISM

Two Inuvo products, one way to track them

RSOC and PRISM covered

Use the Inuvo RSOC template with camp_id, or the Inuvo PRISM template with tkid and agid. Both pull revenue through the API.

The query behind each click

The postback returns the query in param1, so you can see which searches earned revenue on each article.

Late PRISM changes caught

PRISM revenue gets one more sync at day 10, so late adjustments from Inuvo land on the original click.

What ClickFlare needs from each Inuvo postback

Inuvo fires the click postback with your click ID and campaign identifiers, and ClickFlare uses them to fetch revenue. Inuvo RSOC returns camp_id in param10. PRISM returns tkid in param10 and agid in param11.
  • click_id={cf_click_id} in the offer URL
  • RSOC: the campaign ID returns in param10
  • PRISM: tkid in param10, agid in param11
