What is the purpose of measuring conversions?

When we plan a marketing campaign, we set a series of objectives we want to achieve. These objectives, essentially, represent some type of interaction established between our website visitor and the page. These objectives can be of any type, from a purchase to a registration, and are what are known as conversions. When we measure the conversions achieved by our marketing campaign, we are obtaining effective data on its success and, especially, on the quality and relevance of what we are offering our customers. In other words, tracking the conversions achieved by our campaign allows us to know which ads, campaigns, and keywords bring us the most revenue and, therefore, where we can focus our investment to achieve a higher ROI . When we analyze the results of the measurements made, we can determine whether we have achieved our main objectives with the conversions achieved. To begin with, we will know if the keywords used help us get visitors to take the desired action and which ones are related to each specific action. This way, we can focus on investing in those that generate the most profit. Likewise, if we want to know how effective our planned campaign is, we must consider cross-device conversions . These are the result of a process in which users click on our ad on one device and then make a purchase from another. These conversions can be found in the estimated total conversions column of the Google AdWords account. With these results, we'll know how profitable it is to adapt our campaign to multiple access devices, beyond just the computer.
