    Hi Guys,

    I'm in a bit of a dilemma with
    tracking conversions with google
    conversion tracking codes.

    Because I'm split testing 2 pages can
    I put 2 google conversion codes
    on the same thank-you page?

    Take Care,

    Michael Silvester

    Are you using two AdWords accounts? That's the only time you would need to put two different sets of conversion code on a thank you page. If that's your setup, yes, you can do it.

    Some other helpful conversion tracking info here:

    I'm not sure I'd solely rely on google conversion tracking, anyways. For me, it's woefully inaccurate and only catches about 1/3 of the conversions - or less. It's very frustrating. I'd invest in a separate analytics program and verify their data, if at all possible.

    What analytics program would
    you recommend for me to track
    what I need with 1 adwords account?

    Take Care,

    I use www.stuffedtracker.com . And it's awesome. Really awesome. It gets a little slow when you hit 25000 page views in a day, but its manageable.

    (I'm not affiliated, I'm just a happy user.)
