Frustrated with complex and confusing analytics tools? You're not alone. Discover the journey that led me to the creation of ConversionTracking.com, a tool designed to make your life easier.
Facing the Frustrations: The Pain Points of Existing Analytics Tools
Most analytics tools focus solely on the last touchpoint. This means for example that if someone discovers your site or product through an ad or a blog post, then returns directly to your website the next day to make a purchase or sign up, Google Analytics and most ad platforms will attribute the conversion to the last touchpoint, in this case, "Direct."
This is a problem, I want to know if my blog or ad drove the conversion. I also want to know if any point, did the visitor see an ad, email, or blog post.
The Spark of Innovation: Realizing the Need for a Better Solution
This drove me to create my own script to record the visitor's initial source. I would then store the source along with the purchase. I could then see if my ads from Google or Yahoo were working. (Yes, Yahoo, this was back in 2011). Anyway, I slowly developed my script over time adding in more dimensions and getting better data on where my customers were coming from.
From Concept to Creation: The Journey of Building ConversionTracking
I currently have a team and run SeedProd.com, RafflePress.com, and Duplicator.com. I don't get to do much programming work anymore but I still love to program and create things. I liken it to a painter loving to paint, it's not the same if the painter is telling someone what to paint. I have to create stuff and be creative.
So over Christmas break at the end of 2023, I decided to take all the code I had been tweaking over the years to learn about my conversions and make it an app. For all the nerds out there I also learned a new technology called livewire.laravel.com and this app is built with the TALL stack. Over 10 days I created conversiontracking.com and it was everything I wanted in a conversion tracking app.
