Setting up Google Ads Conversion Tracking on Outgrow Landing Pages

Google Ads conversion tracking shows you what happens after a customer clicks on your ads – whether they purchased a product, signed up for your newsletter, called your business, or downloaded your app. When a customer completes an action that you've defined as valuable, these customer actions are called conversions.

This document will help you understand how to configure Google Ads conversion tracking on your Outgrow landing pages.

Setting up Google Ad Conversion Tracking in Outgrow
