How to Set Up Conversion Tracking for Display Ad Campaigns

By Adsonmarket Editorial Team ·

Analytics dashboard tracking conversions from ad campaigns

Without conversion tracking you're optimising for clicks, which are only a guess at value. Tracking shows which ads actually bring customers.

Define a conversion

Pick one action that matters most: purchase, sign-up or install.

Choose a method

Two common approaches:

Pixel

A small script on your thank-you page.

Server postback

Your server notifies the network when a conversion happens — more accurate.

Verify

Run a test conversion and confirm it appears in reports.

Example

Finding the real winner

Two creatives had equal CTR, but tracking showed one converted at 4% and the other at 1%.

Step-by-step

  1. Choose your main conversion
  2. Install pixel or postback
  3. Make a test conversion
  4. Optimise by cost per conversion
