UTM Campaign Link Builder
What Are UTM Parameters?
UTM parameters are tags appended to a URL (?utm_source=...&utm_medium=...&utm_campaign=...) that tell analytics tools like Google Analytics exactly where a visitor came from — which specific email, ad, or social post drove the click, not just "referral traffic" in general.
Fill in your source, medium, and campaign, and get a correctly-formatted tracking URL to use in that specific campaign's links.

How to Build a UTM Tracking Link
- Enter the Website URL the link should point to.
- Set the Campaign Source (e.g. "google," "newsletter," "facebook") — where the traffic is coming from.
- Set the Campaign Medium (e.g. "cpc," "email," "social") — the marketing channel type.
- Set the Campaign Name (e.g. "summer_sale") to group this link with the rest of that campaign's reporting.
Getting Clean, Usable UTM Data
1. Use a consistent naming convention
"Facebook" today and "facebook" tomorrow will show up as two separate sources in your analytics — agree on lowercase, consistent naming across your whole team before tagging links.
2. Campaign name should match across all its channels
If an email and a social post are both part of the same "spring_launch" campaign, use the exact same utm_campaign value on both so your analytics groups them together.
3. Don't UTM-tag your own internal links
Adding UTM parameters to links between pages on your own site can reset a visitor's original traffic-source attribution in some analytics setups — reserve UTMs for links pointing outward to your site.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What's the difference between utm_source and utm_medium?
A: Source is the specific origin ("newsletter," "facebook"); medium is the general channel type ("email," "social," "cpc"). Together they answer "where" and "what kind of channel."
Q: Do UTM parameters affect SEO or ranking?
A: No — they're purely for analytics tracking and don't influence search rankings. Just make sure your canonical tag points to the clean URL without parameters, to avoid any duplicate-content confusion.
Q: Is Campaign Medium required?
A: It's optional in this tool but strongly recommended — without it, your analytics tool has less context to group and filter your traffic by channel type.
