Is There Anything Else I Need to Do for the Conversion for the Submit Form?

Short Answer: No, that’s it. After setting up the conversion tracking for your submit form, the main task now is to wait and monitor to ensure that conversions are being properly recorded and reflected, especially within Google Ads.

Full Explanation

Once you’ve completed the setup for tracking conversions from your submit form, there is no additional action required on your part immediately. The process involves simply waiting to confirm that the conversions are being detected correctly. This means checking that whenever your form receives a lead, that event is logged as a conversion.

It’s important to verify that these conversions match what is shown in Google Ads, particularly because conversions triggered directly from your form will need to correspond with the data in your Google Ads account. Until the form submissions are linked with Google Ads conversions, you won’t fully see this working during debugging, such as when using Incognito mode.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

  1. Complete the initial setup for the submit form conversion tracking.
  2. Begin monitoring the form by waiting for actual leads to come through.
  3. Check that each lead submission is recorded as a conversion in your tracking system.
  4. Verify that these conversions are also visible and correctly attributed within your Google Ads account.
  5. Understand that testing conversion tracking from Incognito mode may not reflect results unless it originates through Google Ads campaigns.

Real Examples

For example, when a user submits your contact form, a conversion event should be logged. You can monitor this on your analytics platform or Google Ads dashboard to confirm it matches. However, if you try to test this by submitting the form from a browser in Incognito mode outside of a Google Ads click, the conversion tracking might not trigger as expected yet.

Common Mistakes

  • Expecting immediate results: Conversion tracking requires actual leads and typically some time to register properly.
  • Testing incorrectly: Testing conversions in Incognito mode without an active Google Ads click can lead to confusion as conversions might not trigger.
  • Not verifying Google Ads data: Simply seeing conversions in your system isn’t enough; you must confirm they correspond within Google Ads for accurate tracking.

FAQs

Can I test conversions immediately after setup?
You can test, but conversions may not register properly unless they originate through Google Ads. Be patient and monitor actual leads.
Why doesn’t conversion show up in Incognito mode?
Because conversions need to be linked to Google Ads clicks, testing in Incognito without configuring this connection will not show results.
How do I know my form conversion is working?
By checking that leads submitted through your form are recorded as conversions both in your tracking system and Google Ads account.

Key Takeaways

  • After setting up form conversion tracking, your primary responsibility is to monitor and verify conversions.
  • Testing conversions outside of live Google Ads traffic, such as in Incognito, may not be effective.
  • Ensure that the conversions you see correlate between your lead form tracking and Google Ads for accurate measurement.
