Digital Marketing - Study Notes:

What is a conversion?

A conversion is any interaction or engagement that a user makes with your website.

Before engaging in an SEO campaign, it’s important to examine your site and decide exactly what it is you want users to do once they reach your website. This could be filling out a form or it could be spending a certain duration of time onsite.

Types of conversions

To take this concept further, it is important to decide on some of the higher-level conversion goals that you would like users to take on your site.

Examples of conversion goals include:

  • Viewing a video
  • Downloading a brochure
  • Filling out a contact form
  • Completing a purchase

All of these goals can be created and tracked using Google Analytics. It’s a good idea to report on traffic and conversions on a weekly basis, so you can monitor trends and periods of strong website performance.
