Clickbank ISR Tracking Flawed?
- SEO |
Hello Warriors,
So I've recently started running some PPC campaigns using Clickbanks ISR tracking and I have been more than disappointed with it's results.
For one, clickbank recommends that you utilize two codes for conversion tracking:
One for tracking completed order form entries, and another for tracking order form page views.
Well if you're using Adwords (haven't tested with anything else yet) the tracking of the order form page views get's mixed in with your actual conversions which leads to a mess of mixed data.
For example, I had made 3 conversions (completed order form submissions) and had about 20 order form page views.
In my adwords account it showed that I made 23 conversions and there was no way I could tell the difference between my Completed Order Form Submissions, and the page views. So that data was pretty much screwed since I couldn't identify the profitable ads.
So I ended up turning off the Order Form Page Views tracking so that it would only track the actual sales, and I've run into yet, another problem that doesn't allow me to see what ad's are profitable.
Basically, Clickbanks ISR doesn't seem to track every conversion. For example, I made 3 sales this morning but Clickbanks ISR only tracked 1 conversion. I made 5 sales yesterday and Clickbanks ISR only tracked 3.
So here I am making sales but am blind as to which ad's are the ones that are profitable.
I'm a little irritated at this point. And am wondering if anyone has run into similar problems and if you've been able to find a solution to this?
