The following table shows the Query String parameters which are available to categorize your Landing URLs.

The terms are interchangable, and can be used in any combination, as long as you don't use two parameters from the same level. (When you do, the topmost one is used. So "cr0" wins over "crcat" if you use both.)

Level 1
(Category)
Level 2
(Source)
Level 3
(Campaign)
Level 4
(Segment)
Level 5
(Split 1)
Level 6
(Split 2)
Level 7
(Split 3)
Level 8
(Split 4)
cr0
crcat
crcategory
crc1
cr1
crsrc
crsource
cr2
crcpn
crcampaign
cr3
crkw
crkeyword
cr4
crsplit0
crsplit
cr5
crsplit1
cr6
crsplit2
cr7
crsplit3

The following are valid landing URLs, which record the same, identical landing:

http://www.example.com/?cr0=ppc&cr1=Bing&cr2=big+terms&cr3=cat+food&cr4=ad+copy+3
http://www.example.com/?crcat=ppc&crsrc=Bing&crcpn=big+terms&crkw=cat+food&crsplit=ad+copy+3
http://www.example.com/?cr0=ppc&crsrc=Bing&crcpn=big+terms&crkeyword=cat+food&crsplit=ad+copy+3

Again, note that ordering of the parameters doesn't matter at all:

http://www.example.com/?cr4=ad+copy+3&cr3=cat+food&cr0=ppc&cr1=Bing&cr2=big+terms

Legacy Tracking

The following parameters are available to accounts created prior to 2009, and their use is discouraged.

Level 1
(Category)
Level 2
(Source)
Level 3
(Campaign)
Level 4
(Segment)
c1 source campaign kw

Example: http://www.example.com/?kw=cat+food&c1=ppc&source=Bing&campaign=big+terms&cr4=ad+copy+3
