Dynamic Keyword Insertion in GoHighLevel Using URL Parameters
Personalizing funnels and pages is vital whether you work in ClickUp, CRMs, or marketing platforms. In GoHighLevel, you can use URL parameters to dynamically insert keywords, giving each visitor a highly tailored experience without duplicating pages.
This how-to guide walks you step by step through setting up dynamic keyword insertion in GoHighLevel pages, forms, and surveys using simple URL parameters.
What Is Dynamic Keyword Insertion in GoHighLevel?
Dynamic keyword insertion in GoHighLevel lets you display custom text on a page based on values passed in the page URL. This is especially useful when you run ads for multiple locations, services, or audiences and want each visitor to see content that matches their search intent.
Instead of building separate pages for every variation, you create one GoHighLevel page and control the wording with URL parameters.
How Dynamic URL Parameters Work in GoHighLevel
A URL parameter is extra information added to the end of a web address. GoHighLevel can read these parameters and show them inside text elements using a simple syntax.
Here is the basic structure:
- Base URL of your page
- A question mark (?) to start parameters
- One or more key=value pairs, separated by ampersands (&)
Example structure for a GoHighLevel page:
https://yourdomain.com/offer?city=chicago&service=dentist
Core Parameter Rules in GoHighLevel
- Each parameter is written as name=value.
- Multiple parameters are joined with &.
- The first parameter follows a ?.
- Parameter names must match what you put inside your GoHighLevel page elements.
Setting Up Dynamic Text on a GoHighLevel Page
Follow these steps to display dynamic text on a GoHighLevel page using URL parameters.
Step 1: Open Your GoHighLevel Funnel or Website
- Log into your GoHighLevel account.
- Navigate to the Sites or Funnels section.
- Select the funnel step or page where you want dynamic keyword insertion.
- Click Edit to open the page builder.
Step 2: Add a Dynamic Text Element
- Inside the GoHighLevel page builder, drag a Text element onto the page where you want the variable content to appear.
- Click on the text element to edit it.
- Use the following format to define a dynamic keyword with a fallback:
{{param_name | default: "Default Value"}}
The param_name is the URL parameter name. The Default Value appears when no parameter is provided.
Example for a city-based headline:
Welcome to {{city | default: "Your City"}}'s Top Dental Clinic
Step 3: Publish and Copy the Page URL from GoHighLevel
- Click Save in the GoHighLevel page builder.
- Return to the funnel or website overview and copy the live URL for that page.
This base URL will be used to build custom links with dynamic parameters.
Building URLs With Dynamic Parameters in GoHighLevel
Once your GoHighLevel page is configured, you can construct unique URLs for each campaign or audience.
Basic URL Example
Suppose your page URL is:
https://yourdomain.com/offer
To dynamically show a city and service, use:
https://yourdomain.com/offer?city=chicago&service=dentist
Now, in your GoHighLevel page text, you can reference these values:
{{city | default: "your area"}}{{service | default: "professional service"}}
Example copy:
Looking for a {{service | default: "local expert"}} in {{city | default: "your city"}}?
Using Multiple Dynamic Keywords in GoHighLevel
You can include several dynamic placeholders across your GoHighLevel page.
For example, set up text like:
{{city | default: "Your City"}}in the main headline{{service | default: "Services"}}in subheadings{{offer | default: "Special Offer"}}in call-to-action sections
Then, send traffic to URLs like:
https://yourdomain.com/offer?city=dallas&service=plumber&offer=Free%20Inspection
Dynamic Keyword Insertion in Forms and Surveys in GoHighLevel
You can also use URL parameters to prefill or personalize GoHighLevel forms and surveys embedded inside your funnels.
Step 1: Add Form or Survey to a GoHighLevel Page
- In your GoHighLevel page builder, drag a Form or Survey element into the layout.
- Select the specific form or survey you want to use.
- Save the page.
Step 2: Map Fields to URL Parameters (Where Supported)
For supported fields, you can configure them to accept values passed via URL parameters. The exact options may depend on the current GoHighLevel feature set, but the principle is:
- Create or edit the form field.
- Note or set a parameter name that will be used in the URL.
- Use that parameter in the link when sending visitors to the page.
Example link to prefill a name field:
https://yourdomain.com/booking?first_name=John
Where your field on the GoHighLevel form is mapped to the first_name parameter.
