Redirect page for tracking conversions

    I want to splitest two versions of landing pages with google website optimizer for a promoting a clickbank product. But the conversion page has to be in the same domain.
    I have read something about an redirect page, meta refresh or something. Can someone explain how to set up such a page?

    I found that I have such a page:). But when I´m putting in the tracking script in the conversion page google website optimizer can´t identify it. It looks like this.

    <?php header("location: http://2f7debx2lomojmda7e27pe18-y.hop.clickbank.net/"); ?>
    <body><!-- Google Website Optimizer Conversion Script -->
    <script type="text/javascript">
    if(typeof(_gat)!='object')document.write('<sc'+'ript src="http'+
    (document.location.protocol=='https:'?'s://ssl':'://www')+
    '.google-analytics.com/ga.js"></sc'+'ript>')</script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    try {
    var gwoTracker=_gat._getTracker("UA-10602582-2");
    gwoTracker._trackPageview("/3767323731/goal");
    }catch(err){}</script>
    <!-- End of Google Website Optimizer Conversion Script --></body>


    Can you see why they can´t identify it?

    PHP will output for the HTML.

    Try removing the php code and adding this to the bottom:

    
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://2f7debx2lomojmda7e27pe18-y.hop.clickban/k.net/" >
    
    Code (markup):

    Hey SharkKiller try using the multi-variant split test on Google Optimizer, it's a little harder to set up but it has a wicked advantage.

    You can then use the same domain/page with both versions of your split test on and put the tracking goal code on an exit page with a meta refresh that SHOwnsYou mentioned :cool:
