After grousing about how my wholesale widgets conversion is clearly not right (and it isn't) I finally stumbled across the problem.

I'm trying to track sales conversions, so I added the code to the appropriate exit pages... but when I initially set my pages up I added the code snippet to my wholesale index page too. Guess what I ended up tracking?

This leaves me with 2 questions.

1) I think I would like to see my conversions for that particular campaign reset. I really to want to track sales conversions, not anything else. Is it possible to reset those (yes, I'll go read the Adwords FAQ too). With regards to any lost conversions if I can reset - I'll live with that.

2) Since I had the code snippet on my wholesale entry *and* exit pages, would anyone who came into wholesale site from my ad, and then make a purchase, trip the conversion counter twice for that same Ad, or is it counted only once?

AWA,

This might a good addition to your FAQ, in the Advanced Concepts.

1.A) Why are my reports showing higher conversion numbers than I think I should be seeing?

Check your code placement. :-)

I'll add that to the list, grandpa. Thanks!
