What the heck Google Optimizer?

by Joel_Cowen

I set up google optimizer a couple days ago with an A/B split test. It says I've had no conversions (no one has opted in) but Aweber shows differently.

Does anyone have experience with GO? If so please let me know what I need to do, this seems like a great tool if I can get it to work. Thanks.

    If you're referring to the site in your signature, then the
    problem may be that you've not set-up your site correctly...

    If someone completes the webform at:

    http://www.example.com/success-letter1

    [Note: I'm using example.com so that it doesn't affect your
    tracking stats]

    The AWeber webform redirects them to...

    http://www.example.com/success-letter

    However, that page is another squeeze page and likely
    it's not the goal page you've already set-up in Google
    Website Optimizer.

    So, AWeber is successfully tracking the progress of the
    visitor from your squeeze page to the thank you URL.

    I think that you really want to redirect them to your
    page at:

    http://www.example.com/success

    I assume that Google Website Optimizer has told you
    that the code has been validated for the test and
    goal pages.

    Dedicated to your success,

      Thanks for the advice I will look and get that fixed. That sounds like it is the problem.
