We've got CDSEO Pro, but that seems to be an issue for Google Adwords campaign, as the auto-tagging is removed from URL.

This is the response I got from Google (from doing a campaign onwww.vitaminking.com.au/body-science-bsc/)


"Auto-tagging automatically adds a parameter to the end of each of your AdWords destination URLs in order to identify visitors as AdWords referrals. The tag captures keyword, campaign, ad content information, and your ad's position when a user clicked it.

The parameter used in auto-tagging is called "gclid." However, due to your website's redirect, the gclid parameter is being removed from the URL.

As such, we're unable to properly track visitors reaching your site through AdWords. We suggest contacting your webmaster to append the gclid parameter to the redirected URL. If this isn't possible, you may want to consider removing the use of a redirect altogether."

Does anyone knows how to go around that?

CDSEO doesn't remove any custom query strings and certainly doesn't redirect away from anything with a query string except the default urls i.e. product.php?productid=X. It may be an issue with Zeus. You CDSEO version is quite dated so you may also want to consider upgrading.
