My tokens don’t work. Help!
Eek! That’s annoying, but there is almost always a very logical reason why not.
Here are the top 3 reasons why your tokens are not working. Work through each of these to determine the root cause.
- Typo. This one is easy. You’ve just mistyped the token. Check that each token you are using is correct.
- You haven’t used a fallback in your token. For each token, you ideally want a fallback so that when the dynamically inserted keyword is too long, it will be replaced by the fallback. So check your fallbacks are correctly in place.
- You’re using a token that is not available for your campaign type. If you’re building a SKAG campaign, you should be able to use any token. If you’re using a thematic campaign, you’ll only be able to use the {Seed} token for keywords. Because of the way that thematic campaigns are structured, expansion keywords are not available.
