Conversion

[PeterK]

Hey all,

I've got this problem with conversion. Our webhosting company says everything is set up OK, but the conversion barely works :confused: only for really A FEW keywords (even within the same adgroup).
What can be the problem? :eek:
Can anybody help me with how could I solve it so conversion would work for every keyword within every adgroup within every campaign? helpppppp :)

cheers!

We can help but need a little more info. I take it you are using the Google tracking tools... if not let us know what you are using to measure the conversion.
When you mean conversion are you talking about the record of a sale?
Try and give more detail and there are plenty of us here to help.

Hi,
Sorry for not detailed enough post, but I'm quite a begginer with AdWords. By conversion I mean the record of a sale, so how many clicks actually led to page "thank you for your payment" on our website.

The conversion is said to be active on "conversion tracking" page, the company who hosts our website said the code is set up correctly, but values are only shown just for one campaign out of 12 (in campaign summary window).

I'm thinking maybe there is different code for each campaign? Hmm...

Big thanks!

Are you recording actual sales that are just not being recorded or are you just not selling anything?

[PeterK]

:p no no, we are recording sales (eg. last week or last month) and just no sales are shown in conversion tables.
Perhaps could it be simply because google is not bringing us any clients? It's hard to believe it with that much money we spend there though...

[AussieWebmaster]

I would think it more likely you have a problem with the tracking codes.

I would suggest doing a few tests to see if it works.

[PeterK]

Thank you :) that calmed me down a bit. But what kind of tests do you have in mind? What exactly is there I could do?

Thanks again
Cheers!

You can click on a google ad and then sign up and see if everything works... try a few words from different computers.

Thank you, AussieWebmaster - you were really helpfull!
I'll see if everything work correctly and I think the code might be actually not on the right page ( :mad: ) and after I make sure it is all set up correctly I'll run some tests.
Thanks again!
Hopefully some day I will master Google AdWords, LOL, but couldn't do it without help of ppl like you! :cool:

cheers
