External Traffic Analytics

External traffic analytics helps you track the effectiveness of advertising on external platforms, for example, in contextual advertising in search engines or social networks.

How it works:

  1. You create a link with UTM tags and use it in advertising on external marketplaces.
  2. The system collects statistics by tags, for example, how many people added products to cart and paid for the order after clicking the advertising.
  3. You view the main metrics for the week in your personal account or download reports with detailed analytics.

What are UTM tags #

Tag the links correctly so that the system can collect data on clicks and orders for your external campaigns. UTM tags will help you identify the campaign.

The system tracks campaigns by the utm_campaign parameter. The value consists of two parts:

  • Prefix. It contains a unique combination of characters and signals us that a user came to Ozon from your external advertising. The prefix looks like vendor_org_XXXXX, where “XXXXX” is your organization ID.

    In the Analytics → External Traffic section, copy the prefix in the Prefix value for UTM_CAMPAIGN tag field.

  • Campaign name. You can come up with it yourself. The name is optional, but it helps to distinguish advertising campaigns in statistics. Use Latin letters, numbers, and underscores.

Other UTM tags parameters are utm_source, utm_medium, utm_content, and utm_term, they’re filled in as usual: there are no special requirements.

The link builder works for ozon.ru, ozon.kz and ozon.by domains. You can get a report with detailed analytics for sections and their subsections:

  • /product/ for one PDP;
  • /brand/ for a brand page;
  • /seller/ for a store;
  • /highlight/ for a promotion page or product selection.

Here’s what your link may look like: https://www.ozon.ru/brand/dom-i-sad/.

You can also use the builder to add UTM tags. It automatically adds the required vendor_org_ prefix to the source link.

  1. On the AnalyticsExternal traffic page, click Create links.

  2. Add up to one hundred links you want to tag in the field. Each link must start with a new line, otherwise we won’t be able to recognize them.

  3. In the Placement field, select the advertising network. If your advertising network isn’t on the list, select:

    • other advertising networks;
    • other: for example, if you place an advertisement in an influencer’s blog instead of an advertising network.
  4. Fill in the UTM parameters.
    Required parameters:

    • utm_source: the source from which the traffic goes. If you select one of the advertising networks in Step 3, for example, myTarget, the parameter is filled in automatically. In other cases, you need to fill it in manually.
    • utm_medium: the advertisement type. For example, an email newsletter or a banner.

    Optional parameters:

    • utm_campaign: the сampaign name.
    • utm_term: the keyword that displays the advertisement in the search results.
    • utm_content: additional information that helps distinguish clicks on different advertisements with the same tags.

    You don’t need to add the required vendor_org_ prefix, we add it automatically.

    Fill in the optional parameters manually, following the example above, or select values from the list.
    For specific advertising networks, you can select macros that this network supports:

    The macros collects more data on the effectiveness of the advertisement with each click on the link. The data may include the user’s age, device, and the region they clicked the link from.

  5. Enable Deeplink: it generates a link that redirects a user to the Ozon app on any mobile device. If you disable it, the link to the app may work incorrectly.

    If you use template parameters or macros in your links, you can’t enable the deeplink.

    If a user doesn’t have the Ozon app, the generated link works according to the deferred deeplink mechanism. It redirects a user to install the app first. When a user installs the app and opens it for the first time, they will land on the page where the link originally led.

  6. Click Generate. The links appear in the Created links field.

Manually #

Add the utm_campaign tag to your product’s link. It should contain a unique prefix from the External traffic section, the Prefix value for UTM_CAMPAIGN tag block. Optionally, you can specify the campaign name via underscore after the prefix.

If necessary, specify the tags that contain information about the source and type of the campaign and separate them with “&":

  • utm_source
  • utm_medium
  • utm_term
  • utm_content

Link example:

Links without deeplink have no time limits. Other links stay active for 30 days from the last click. After that, they redirect users to the Ozon app.

Data on orders from external advertising #

By UTM tags in your external advertising campaigns, we collect data on orders.

Direct orders #

Purchases that users made within a user session. These are orders that users made after clicking the link and before leaving the site or ceasing to be active there.

The direct order is:

  • purchase of a product to which your link led;
  • purchase of any product from your store if the user clicked its link from external advertising.

Example

Your link led to blue shoes, and the user clicked the red shoes PDP from your store and ordered them: we’ll consider the purchase as a direct order in the statistics.

Orders within the attribution window #

Purchases that users will make within 30 days after clicking your link.

For external advertising, we collect data independently of campaigns created via Ozon promotional tools. We work under the “last click” model: we assign the conversion result to the last external channel that the user interacted with before purchasing your product.

Examples

  1. The user clicked your link on a third-party site, viewed the shoes, but didn’t order them. Two weeks later, they clicked your other link in Yandex and ordered these shoes. The purchase will be considered the result of external advertising campaign in Yandex, because this link was the last one the user clicked on.

  2. You set up external shoes advertising in Yandex and at the same time ran advertising using the internal Ozon tool, promotion in search results. The customer clicked the Yandex shoes advertisement, viewed PDP, but didn’t order. A week later, they returned to Ozon, clicked shoes PDP from search results advertising and bought them. The order will be shown both in the external advertising statistics and search promotion statistics.

External traffic reports content #

Any external traffic report is generated in XLSX format. Report content:

  • Attributes: data collected for product or channel characteristics. For example, if you have multiple advertising social media campaigns, the attributes will show which campaign the traffic belongs to if you specify it in the tag.

Depending on the report type, attributes and metrics will differ.
