[0:22] Hey thanks for joining me today on the paid and sites podcast so.

We’re going to some a little different today we’re going to talk about AdWords conversion tracking and this is a crucial piece that.
[0:36] I see time and time again that companies just don’t have set up or haven’t even thought about it so they’re spending money on and it could be AdWords it could be Facebook ads Pinterest you name it but.

So they know they know traffic is coming to their website.

And that’s about all they can see they don’t know if people are taking action after they get to the website so if you were buying or filling out a form or any you know what whatever their goal is have no idea if that’s happening so,

Hopefully that makes sense types of tracking are like I mentioned phone calls and you can set those up for different durations so.

If someone calls you for 30 seconds or 60 seconds or two minutes that can be a conversion,

obviously those aren’t aren’t perfect but by setting you know something more than just a couple seconds at least at least you know you have a decent,

decent phone call

so let’s let’s talk about the Forum conversion tracking,

there’s two there’s basically two ways to accomplish this that I’m going to talk about there is an AdWords conversion tracking code that you get through the AdWords platform and then there’s also,
