Google Conversion

[Lee_Wallis]

Hi All

I've been asked by a customer to add the following code on to their "Thankyou" page. Is this just as simple as dropping in the code between the BODY tags, or because it's actinic, is there some special way to intregrate it?

I've seen a guide for adding Analytics to the website on the forums, but couldn't find a Google Conversion guide.

<!-- Google Code for purchase Conversion Page -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var google_conversion_id = NUMBER;
var google_conversion_language = "en_GB";
var google_conversion_format = "1";
var google_conversion_color = "666666";
if (1.0) {
  var google_conversion_value = 1.0;
}
var google_conversion_label = "purchase";
//-->
</script>

Hi Donna

Thanks for the link.

I'm assuming that it doesn't matter that the thread is related to version 7 of actinic when I need it for version 8??

[Donna Kempster]

I think there is a version section within the thread. Also search for Eileens guide to Google analytics as this is also a V8 thread.

I'm abit confused..

I've used Eileens Guide before when adding analytics to actinic shops.

I don't understand the difference between Analytics and the Conversion Code. Is the conversion code in my post above intregrated as well as the Analytics code when following the instructions in Eileens thread?

Just so you know where I'm at...

I was sent the code above by a customer, they said that their google representative asked them to add it to their website. Now I've never seen this code before, I've only ever seen the analytics code, so I don't know what this one does exactly.

Sorry to sound like an idiot!

Lee,

They are not the same, I would suggest sticking this code just before the </Body> tag of the receipt page.

A search on google provided this http://www.google.com/adwords/learni...ext/19216.html
It says:

The conversion tracking code snippet will show a visible Google Site Stats text block on your website's user-facing confirmation pages to indicate that a conversion has been completed. This text will only appear to users who have been referred to your site by Google.
You should check your conversion reports to ensure that the conversion has recorded correctly. The Site Stats text link is an important feature of the program. It lets users know that you're tracking their purchase, and gives them a link to more information about Google conversion tracking.
If you can't see the Site Stats link, verify that the conversion code has been added to your webpage with no additional line breaks (compare your page to the conversion code available within your account). Some HTML editing programs will insert line breaks into the conversion code for the lines that are long enough to have wrapped to a second line in your account. The conversion tracking code should not have any line breaks inside of the '<' and '>', unless there is a ';' at the end of the line.

Kind regards,

Sorry, I didn't look at the code saw google and conversion and made 3!

There is a simlar snippet for yahoo that puts a link on your receipt page which if the customer clicks it tells them their order has been tracked. D

Yes if you are using google conversion tracking it goes in the receipt bulk layout just before the </body> tag.
