The Conversion Optimiser: Get Started with the Conversion Optimiser

1) Sign in to AdWords

1. Visit https://adwords.google.co.uk/select/ConversionTrackingHome. You can also reach this page by clicking Conversion Tracking at the top of your account’s Campaign Management tab.
2. Click Create Your First Actions.
3. Follow the steps provided. We will guide you through the process of receiving your code, placing it on your website and completing the set-up.

An important note: Don’t remove your conversion-tracking code from your website or move it to a different location while running Conversion Optimiser, as it may interfere with your campaign’s performance.
