How can I track conversions?
To track
conversions, an
advertiser needs to put a short piece of conversion tracking code (HTML code) generated by our system into their webpages.
How to get the conversion tracking code?
If you are an Advertiser
- Sign into your Advertiser account, follow the menu My Account/ Conversion Tracking
- Copy the code and paste it into the conversion pages on your website
- Edit the conversion types or values (optional)
If you are a Publisher
- Sign into your Publisher account, follow the menu Advertisers/ All, click on the Advertiser you want to get the Conversion Tracking code for, then click on the tab Conversions to generate the code
- Copy the code and paste it into the conversion pages on your advertiser's website
- Edit the conversion types or values (optional)
Where to place the code?
When your customer visits the webpage with a conversion tracking code, our system will record the data for this conversion (value, location, time, date, etc.) If the conversion type is:
- Purchase: Put the tracking code inside a page that says "Thank you for your oder", the thank-you page when the customer has bought something from your store.
- Signup: Put the tracking code in a page that says "You have been subscribed to our newsletter", or "Thank you for signing up".
- Other: You can create additional conversion types that is suitable to your tracking requirements.
- Flash/SWF: If you need to track conversions and events inside a Flash file, the tracking image beacon should be embedded inside the SWF file with loadMovie() or the Loader class in ActionScript 3. See more examples.
Assign monetary value for each conversion
Additionally, you can assign a dollar value to each conversion through the tracking code. For example, the customer purchased a $20 item then you should use $20 as the conversion value in the tracking code. This value could be assigned dynamically (the value of the shopping cart for each customer) by your shopping cart software. Reports on conversion value only show up for the advertiser, who set that value on the landing page. Publisher does not see/know how much each conversion is worth to the advertiser. Publisher can set CPA ad rates which is the revenue for publisher and the cost to advertiser.
