title: Obtaining campaign query string parameters from Google adwords
body: <p>As I understand Google Adwords, you can either setup the click thru URLs to be auto tagged (returns just <code>&amp;glcid=XXXXXXX</code> in the querystring), or you can do this manually (returns <code>&amp;utm-source=MyCampaign</code> etc).</p>
  
  <p>I wish to customise the onpage content to show something relevant to the adwords query. For example, if the current campaign is targeting 'Nurses' then one of the featured items on the homepage will be about Nursing. </p>
  
  <p>With manual tagging I can grab part of the querystring and conditionally show something, but with auto tagging, I'm unable to grab anything useable as it's no doubt timestamped and just refers back to an adwords campaign id. Is there anything in the cookie that gets set?</p>
  
  <p>1) Is there any way to get something useable out of the auto tagged URL with regards to the campaign the click has come from?</p>
  
  <p>2) If I use manual tagging, does it affect the additional data that gets assigned to analytics such as query string matching, keyword position etc. Does this also affect ad distribution network data?</p>
  
  <p>Many thanks</p>
