4. if you would like to copy the alert click on the copy button and this will copy any information that you had set in the previous alert.

5. If the alert has finished then you can click delete. This will remove the alert from GatorLeads.

2. Enter the name of the Alert.

3. Click on the dropdown box and select the frequency of the alert.

4. Use the drop down to select the time you would like to run at.

5. If you would like the alert to be active click the 'Off' button and it will change it to 'On', and vice versa, for setting the alert to be disabled.

6. Click 'Next' to move on to the 'Rules' tab.

Alert Rules

Step 5

On the rules page you have the option to pick what you would like your alert to be based on such as page visits or lead type, always making sure that the rules are turned ON when being set.

 

Please Note: If you have more than one rule to an alert, they are AND rules. This means the lead will have to have clicked on a page URL AND as a lead band of hot. They have to fulfill all rule criteria shown.

Page Visits

Page visits

If you would like to set a rule based on a particular page the contact has visited, you can do this on the page visits option.

1. Make sure the switch has been set to 'On'.

2. If you would like to apply the criteria by URL, select the URL option. If you select the Page URL option please ensure that the page has tracking code situated on the page, if it does then paste the URL into the Page URL option. If it highlights green then this page is available, but if the URL highlights red then check that there is tracking on the page.

If there is then please contact [email protected] who will be able to help you with any problems.

3. if you would like to apply the alert criteria by Category select the category. If you select category you will have the option to select the categories that you would like to use for the alert. If you are unsure how to create a category please see the help article on this.

 

You now have the option to set category rules for Page Visits in an alert.

You can select 'Category Rules' where you can set certain page categories a person must have visited and those they must not have visited in order for the alert to be triggered.
You also have the ability to set the time this rule must be met in. This means that if your alert runs once at 9am and another at 4pm, but the rule is met after that timeframe, then the rule typically would not be met and the alert not triggered. However, setting it to within last month means that the running time of the alerts is disregarded in terms of this rule.

 

Campaigns Rules

Campaigns Rules

You can set alerts to filter by campaigns. To use this function, you must be sending UTM values to GatorLeads.
GatorMail does this automatically when post-click tracking is enabled in the Campaign Setup.
UTM Campaign values from other mediums such as social or PPC can also be read, however this may mean there is no email address associated with the contact that matches the alert criteria.

1. You can either enter the campaign, alternatively you can use the search icon that is highlighted in the above screen shot which displays a list of all the campaigns that GatorLeads has picked up on.

2. You are able to select when you would have liked them to have interacted with the campaign. If you would like to do this click on the drop downbox and select the time that meets your criteria.

Filter by Referrer

Filter by Referrer

The Referrer option allows you to restrict alerts to visits generated from specific third party sources.
This is useful if you have campaigns driving traffic to a specific page on your website.
The “Exact Match” option allows you to fully qualify a singular referrer source as opposed to any traffic from a third party in general.

 

Filter by Keyword

Filter by Keyword

This will alert you when a certain keyword has driven a visitor to your site. You can only enter words, not phrases.

Please Note: Due to Google’s recent changes, UTM keyword data is less commonly passed in links now.

 

1. You can search for the key words that have been used in GatorLeads alternatively you can enter the Keyword into the single line text box that is provided.

2. If you would like to have an exact match on the word select this option. This means GatorLeads will not provide an alert if it does not match the Keyword.
