How to use Adwords Conversion Tracking

by OnlineTutor

If you want to pay less for your adwords campaigns you should keep a close eye on your conversion rates. By tracking your conversion you will gatter important information about your adwords campaign performance thus allowing you to tweak it when needed.

A conversion rate is defined as the percentage of people who actually purchase your product or service compared to the number of people who came to your website by clicking on your Adwords ad. This number is the conversation percentage and the higher the percentage, the more effective your ad campaign. If you have extremely low numbers, you need to do something to increase those numbers such as refine your ads or choose better keywords or websites for displaying the ads.

Google provides inside the Adwords application a tool for tracking conversions for each campaign and each ad you run. This allows you to learn what your rates are and see which ads are doing their job well. If one ad or a whole campaign isn’t doing well, then you can look for patterns that can clue you in about how to change and make the campaign more effective.

Adwords conversions are driven by many factors. It is not sufficient of your ad to get the user to click through to your website, although that is the first step. The ultimate goal is to make a sale or create a valid lead that will bring in a future sale. Whether you goal is to get the visitor to sign up for a newsletter or to purchase a product or service, if that visitor fails to do what you wish, then you have not converted that visitor. How many convert once they see your website is controlled by you. How attractive is your website? Is it truly compelling, making the visitor believe they simply can’t live without the product or service your offer? Is the website easy to navigate or is it not very user friendly? Are your sales claims believable or do they seem to be unrealistic? Do you have data to support your claims? These are all factors that are within your power to control.

It doesn’t matter whether you are the worlds number 1 adwords campaign creator if your site is ugly, difficult to use or navigate or is not offering what you stated in the ad you will have very low conversion rates. A fine example of this is the ad that states that a product or service is free only to find out when you go to the site that you have to pay. Make sure that your ad and your website are offering the same thing with the same conditions.
