Paid Per Click (PPC) Tracking

The most important part of a "Pay Per Click" advertising campaign is tracking.  Tracking allows you to course correct, and stay on course. Tracking is achieved through the help of analytics software.

Tracking202/Prosper202, a comprehensive, free platform.  202 has two  versions: hosted, and self-hosted version.  The hosted version is tracking202.com, it's on their servers, so they can see your data, but it doesn't require set-up.   Prosper202 is self-hosted which means you need a domain, hosting, and set-up.  The domain is behind the scenes though - so it can be any address (no one will see it).  The hosting needs mysql 5.1 for 202 to function properly, which is not available everywhere.
