  • Re: SSL for branding domain not landing page
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-17-2014

    Well, of course something is being displayed: the http:// or https:// URLs that I inserted into my original email, as well as the JS redirect code, which could be effortlessly read -- and almost as easily altered -- on its way to the browser.If an email links to https://www.example.com/my/product/pa...

  • SSL for branding domain not landing page
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-17-2014 quickview

    I've read that Marketo Support can manually import a cert to support https://landing_page.example.com.Can the same be done for our branding domain, e.g. https://click_tracking.example.com?

    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-10-2014 quickview

    It doesn't really make sense that clicking the "View as web page" link gets logged as "Clicked email" since what the lead is actually doing is viewing the email, exactly akin to what happens if they view the message in their e-mail client and download the tracking beacon. In fact the inability/unwi...

  • Re: Why are parent brands cool with only having one branding domain?
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-06-2014

    Thanks for thinking about it. Yes, this limitation is confirmed (in fact, voluntarily conveyed) by Marketo's professional services team. Landing pages are relatively flexible but not branding domains. You just get one.I'm glad you agree that exposing the parent brand is not good for your image -- i...

  • Why are parent brands cool with only having one branding domain?
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-06-2014 quickview

    To our chagrin, we have confirmed that even with workspaces activated, we get only one branding domain for all pURLs in all e-mails. This seems to fly in the face of the claim that workspaces and lead partitions can be used to manage several brands. If we were Gap, for example, we'd need a separat...

  • Re: Using personalized links without JavaScript

    ... unless you have some magic that allows Munchkin to associate the lead without manually inserting an identifiable value in every URL you ever use an e-mail. I am 99.999% sure no such thing exists.

    I'm aware that I can turn off click tracking, thanks. Then you no longer get clicks tracked automatically by lead. If I didn't need this functionality I wouldn't be using personalized links/link rewriting in the first place.

  • Using personalized links without JavaScript
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 10-27-2014 quickview

    It should be well-known (though perhaps isn't) that when Marketo rewrites your offsite links, the redirect from the Mkto-hosted branding domain (f.e. click.example.com) back to www.example.com requires JavaScript. It sets document.location, a primitive method that works fine, but only if the user's...
