John:If your conversion tracking is not up to the matter, then you
John:shouldn't even consider creating ads.
John:So in this video, we are going to learn one thing that you need to consider
John:while creating your conversion action.
John:If you add a conversion action to secondary, then it also on your
John:conversion column, rather, it'll sew.
John:All conversion column and its own optimized for your campaign, its own
John:optimized for your bidding strategies.
John:Hi guys.
John:I'm Ruti from Solutions Eight, and in this video we are going to learn
John:about the conversion tracking practices for any eCommerce Google art account.
John:in Google Art convergent tracking is the found.
John:If your conversion tracking is not up to the matter, then you
John:shouldn't even consider creating ads.
John:So your conversion tracking should be upgrade to track operate data, for
John:better performance and everything.
John:So in this video, we are going to learn one thing that you need to consider
John:while creating your conversion app.
John:you can see here is my conversion dashboard.
John:You can get this dashboard by clicking tools and.
John:Then convergence.
John:so here you can see multiple convergent goals.
John:there are several boxes, and each boxes represent convergent goal.
John:Here you can see we have purchases here, we have phone call leads.
John:Contact us and so on.
John:Inside of each goal, you can create multiple convergent apps.
John:Okay?
John:So for an eCommerce account, we always consider S.
John:So here we can see we have created three convergent apps for ps.
John:These three conversion are tracking our portraits.
John:These are fir.
John:When someone make a p.
John:So one major mistake people make that while creating their purchase
John:conversion axon, they add all the conversion axon to crime.
John:if you add all the conversion action to primary, then all the data will
John:show on your conversion column.
John:while analyzing your campaign data, you can see conversion in your
John:conversion column, but if you add all the conversion into primary, You
John:can, you can see multiple conversion.
John:Your data will be multiplied.
John:Let's support, if I are all these conversion accent to primary, then
John:instead of one conversion, I can see three conversion and same happen to my
John:My lowest will be multiplied by three.
John:So to avoid this issue, you always create one conversion and add to primary.
John:And rates should be in second.
John:Okay.
John:If you add a conversion option to secondary, then it owns
John:show on your conversion column.
John:Rather, it'll show on your all conversion column and it own
John:optimized for your campaign.
John:It owned, optimized for your bidding strategy.
John:In this way, you can avoid tracking duplicate conversion.
John:Okay.
John:To change conversion, Aon to primary, you second.
John:You can click here, edit goal.
John:Then you can see all the conversion Aon inside that goal, and you can
John:change here from the drop down, you can select whether you are, you want
John:to add to primary, just secondary.
John:Okay.
John:In this way, you can add primary and secondary converge.
John:Okay.
John:Then another major mistake people make that they use
John:conversion from their analysis.
John:Here you can see this conversion is imported from universal
John:analysis and it is only tracking 26 conversion while our Google created
John:conversion are tracking 51 and 50.
John:So if I use this Convergent Aon, then I will lose 50% convergence.
John:this has happened, because Google Analytics is a last
John:click attributed network.
John:give all the credit to the last click network.
John:For an example, if someone click on your, Then do not make that PO and after some
John:time you know, come back to a site by directly browsing your site and make that
John:po for that process, Google Analytics will keep all the credit to, direct
John:source, not to the Google Ad Source.
John:If you use Google, if you create a conversion action in your
John:Google art account, then you can track that conversion tool.
John:So always create your primary conversion action on your Google art account.
John:You can import analytics conversion action, but you can add it to
John:secondary for observations.
John:And then another thing all which add relevant conversion
John:to account account level goal.
John:Okay?
John:So if I click here, edit goal, you can see use this goal to account goal.
John:Yeah.
John:Do not use this goal to account default goal.
John:Sometime for an eCommerce account, some people purchase something by
John:calling you the order phone calls.
John:So in that case you should, you know, add this goal to your account level
John:goal by click here and you can change.
John:But like these contacts and get direction.
John:Downloads, this should be excluded from your account level goals
John:to track accurate conversions.
John:and let's click on our conversion action to check more savings.
John:So from here you can even change the primary and secondary goal.
John:Click here, edit savings.
John:Then you can see goal and optimization.
John:From here, you can change your primary and secondary goal if you want.
John:Another important thing is for s
John:for portages You should count every conversion because for every
John:conversion we are getting revenue.
John:We are getting monetary values.
John:So, track, use this every conversion.
John:Another important thing is clear through convergence window, engage
John:view through conversion window view through conversion window.
John:convergence window means a timeframe, like in that timeframe if that the conversion
John:happen that will attribute to Google.
John:Let's approach you have, you know, for click through conversion, you
John:have added 90 days conversion window.
John:Let's approach if someone click on your app and don't make the purchase.
John:And after 90 days, you know, 90 days make the purchase.
John:So you can count that conversion and you can attribute that conversion to Google
John:A That conversion window, whatever conversion happen, all the conversion
John:you can attribute to Google art.
John:So for based proper months, always use the maximum because here you
John:can see 90 days maximum because you should always, give more data, more
John:conversion to your Google art account because we are relying on machine.
John:So if you feed your machine, if you input maximum convergent to to your,
John:to the machine, then it'll work better.
John:It'll find more, more people, and the billing strategy will be, good,
John:your performance will be good.
John:So always use maximum.
John:Same happen to your engaged view conversion.
John:Engaged view conversion means it is always applicable for your video,
John:a engaged view Conversion means if someone view your ad least ten second.
John:And after make a purchase, then you can attribute that convergence
John:to Googler, even if that person click, do not click on your app.
John:so for Engage View convergence, you can maximum add 30 days.
John:this is not a glitch.
John:I'm interrupting the video you're watching because I need to remind
John:you that I'm always looking for people to join our team.

John:If you have questions, comments, concerns, or confessions,
John:hit me blowing the comments.
John:And now back to your regularly scheduled program for view through conversion.
John:It is not that important, but you should use maximum as.
John:And another important thing is attribution model.
John:it's kind of you know, another topic I would say, but for better
John:performance, you should use data driven.
John:Actually, attribution model is.
John:sometimes you create multiple campaigns for top of the funnel, middle of the
John:funnel, and bottom of the funnel.
John:there may be multiple touch point for a single conversion.
John:For an example, if someone click on your art from your first campaign and
John:know about your product and services and after some time click on your ad,
John:you know, from second campaign and know more about your product and services
John:and last time, click add from your third campaign and make a process.
John:so we shouldn't you give upgrade it to your first and second campaign?
John:You should, because those campaign, involves in, involves in generating what
John:do I would say, generating interest.
John:So from attribution model, you can, Which campaign
John:you want to give the credit.
John:Okay.
John:So you can click here and you can choose whether last click, fast, click, linear
John:time, decay, and position for last click, you can give all the credit to last
John:click the campaign for fast, click, same.
John:You can give all the credit to the first split campaign for linear.
John:It'll divide conversion to all the.
John:And for time, it'll, give more waiters towards last click and position based,
John:it'll give more credit, more waiters to your first and last click conversion.
John:Last click campaigns.
John:So always huge data, even because we are relying on data.
John:So let Google decide which campaign, which are to give
John:more credit, maximum weightage.
John:So, and also data driven is kind of click and view attribution model.
John:So if you use data, you you can get the leverage of engaged
John:view through conversion.
John:Then you should always use enhanced conversion option given by Google.
John:I have created a separate video, how to create enhanced conversion.
John:You can watch that video to, set up your enhanced conversion
John:for enhanced conversion.
John:We will provide more data along with transaction ID and conversion value.
John:, we can provide, our customer email, phone number, address, et cetera, because as I
John:said, we are relying on machine learning.
John:if we provide more data, it'll work better, it'll find more people and it'll.
John:Relevant people.
John:So huge, enhanced conversion to get maximum proper mass.
