Tool

UTM Link Builder

Generate clean, UTM-tagged URLs for campaign tracking — ready to paste into ads, emails, or social posts.

Summary

Consistent UTM parameters keep analytics reporting clean. Source = platform, medium = type, campaign = the specific initiative.

Tagged URL

Field guide

  • utm_source — where the traffic comes from (google, facebook, newsletter)
  • utm_medium — the type (cpc, email, social, display)
  • utm_campaign — the specific campaign (spring_sale_2025)
  • utm_term — paid keyword (search ads only)
  • utm_content — variant or placement (ad_a vs ad_b)

Naming conventions

  • Use lowercase and underscores — never spaces
  • Keep a shared spreadsheet of source/medium values your team agrees on
  • Never UTM-tag internal site links — it breaks session attribution
  • Use campaign names that still make sense in 6 months

Frequently asked questions

Do UTMs affect SEO?

No for external tagged links. Do not tag internal links — search engines may index duplicates.
